THE summer holidays are starting to draw to a close but there is still time to book one last beach trip before the kids head back to school. Living in landlocked Worcestershire can be challenging, as the county's residents do not have the luxury of a nearby beach to help them cool down. However, readers have still managed to compile a list of must-go beaches—if you are willing to go the distance.

It seems like a long way for Worcester residents to travel, but readers said it is well worth the visit if you happen to be on holiday in Cornwall.

One reader, Lisa Davis Purser, said: "Porthcurno Beach is truly stunning." 2. Rhossili Bay - Wales A post shared by Sian Thomas (@welshgirl.
