Brean Somerset Map

About Brean

Brean breathes the salt-laced air that drifts inland from the Bristol Channel. It lies 6.1 km north of Burnham-on-Sea (from Burnham-on-Sea: bearing 350°T, OS grid ST 296 552), and is situated north of Berrow village. The landscape hereabouts, a gentle sweep of coastal plain, often catches the afternoon sun in a way that lends a peculiar, almost pearlescent glow to the fields and marshlands. The village itself, though modest in size, possesses a quiet resilience, a feeling of being deeply rooted in its seaside environs, far from the clamour of busier shores. One might imagine the echoes of ancient mariners in the very whisper of the wind that stirs the dune grasses. There is a simple, unadorned charm to Brean, a place where the horizon feels close and the sky is a vast, ever-changing canvas.
