Happy farmer sitting in a truck in a grassy field
Happy farmer sitting in a truck in a grassy field

Backed by colourful beach huts and with the long esplanade for sand-free walks, Frinton-on-Sea is often overlooked but it's a little-known seaside gem and there are plenty of campsites and glamping sites nearby.
