I came here back in 85 and again in 86 for a,weeks holiday with my mum,sisters and older brother self catering as I recall. My mum loved it here. Thank you for giving me the chance to see if again 40 years on, great memories.

Used to love going to Weston twice a year when my grandparents were alive, they went to the dolls house fayre at the Winter Gardens and then we all went for dinner at the Old Thatched Cottage, always lovely food and a good day out

My parents used to take me on holiday every year in the 1970s. I now bring my wife for 2 weeks every year. Love weston so much to do in weston and surrounding area. I'm from Scotland.

Went there as a youngster… with my family… two weeks holiday …. ❤

As a child in the late fifties early sixties I was brought here for days out and the occasional long weekend, we always called it Weston Super Mud as for the life of me I can never remember seeing the sea just the sandy mud flats, still have fond memories of the place though.

thanks for visiting I moved to wsm 10 years ago. i live on the seafront further south opposite the tropicana. I love wsm now. as a teen in the 90s living in a village nearby, I hated it. left for Scotland at 18, never intending to live here. I love the flat walkable promenade. The tide goes out between a mile and a mile and a half. Two or three times a year it comes in higher than the first sea wall. There is a second sea wall with gates that get closed to keep the sea from flooding. well done finding a low wind day.

A vary good video of WESTON SUPER MARE - Full Seafront Tour😀😀👍👍

Agreed

Being only an hour & 20 mins away am a regular visitor to Weston. Always like to stay for a night or two - The Grand Atlantic Hotel, Royal Grosvenor but mainly at The Sandringham which is more central. Have walked down to the old Birnbeck pier but never far the other way towards what was the Sea life centre. Always good walk along the pier & through the town area. Will be back there soon.

I've been to Weston super mare about 10 to 15 times, the first time was a week school trip when I was 13 yrs, we stayed at a caravan park in Brean and it rained most of the week!. We ended up at some restaurant on seafront, can't remember what it was called, but probably doesn't exist anymore!, even though it was raining most of the time, still had a good time. I was persuaded to go on 4 day coach holiday to Weston super mare, and went out on daytrips, but stayed at this hotel in Weston called the Midland Hotel and it was the worst I had ever stayed at, when I was watching your video, you walked past the hotel, I can't believe it's still open, it's okay if you don't mind slumming it!.I've been a chambermaid in lots of hotels and was always told if you keep the rooms clean and presentable, the customer will come back, they notice when things are missed and have every right to complain!, it's worse than the Norbreck hotel in Blackpool and that's a dive!

I live in Birmingham so Weston is great for a day at the seaside!

I’ve been to Weston several times as a youngster. The restaurant where you ended the video used to be the Tropicana pool. I don’t know what the pier is like now. Used to be a fun fair in there. We locals call it Weston super mud as the tide is always out. I haven’t been since the 70s. Great video and thank you.

the tropicana pool is further south along the seafront. Revos restaurant was built in the late 90s as a seaquarium. the tropicana building has a cafe and an event space for hire

I plan to visit Devon and Dorset from Canada next year so thanks for this suite of walks.

Great video 👍 not been to Weston since the summer of 1976 golden rail from Sheffield. Spent many happy hour in the old Tropicana water park sadly long since gone.

Nice beach I visit in 2016

I've had daytrips to Weston since I was a nipper the best part of 50 years ago. Great place to revisit though I do miss the 'old' pier.

Lovely walk . Fun fact Borry Lewis was born here . He has a you tube channel .he cook things

Weston is lovely I used to live there was there 6 years would like to visit it again sometime🙂

Why is the flag on the Grand Pier at half mast @32:31 ? Great video, wonderful to visit from sitting at home, almost like taking a short break to be there by the sea.

Stephen merchant filmed ‘Outlaws’ here and if it’s good enough for him it’s good enough for me

Weston is another beautiful town there in Somerset and so is the magnificent scenic views of the sea, also nice places to eat and drink of course and a lot of interesting things to see this is another great and beautiful area of the UK until next time thank you.🇬🇧🎇🎆🇬🇧

Hope you get to visit Cheddar and Wookey Hole while you're down that way 👍
