Which Seaside Resorts In The UK Or Abroad, Wouldn't You Be Seen Dead In?

I hope no one lives in Skegness as l wouldn't like to go there. I'd imagine it's a bit chavvy?!!! Sorry, if you live there and like it!

We found skeggie better than Blackpool, less tacky.

Having said that when in the mood Blackpool is great.

Can't say there is any resort I would actively avoid I quite like a seaside day out.

Cities now there are very few I would enjoy think st David's was great and Edinburgh but haven't been to any other I would wish to repeat.

A day out is what you make it, the venue is incidental.

I don't make comparisons, each and every resort has its positive and negative qualities.

I find snobbery just as unappealing as chavs.

That's very true. What puts me off cities is crowds if there were less people in them I'd enjoy them too

Most of them

I don't like 'popular resorts' preferring beaches largely devoid of humans There are some lovely spots in Wales

Any type of snobbery.
There's no car I wouldn't get in, as long as it's legal.
There are cars I wouldn't buy but that's a personal choice.
There are resorts I wouldn't go to for a holiday, too cold for instance, not because of the people that frequent it.

I've come across all types of people in a business sense and have found some millionaires to be absolutely dreadful, I've worked for people that would appear chavvy and have been delightful clients.

Ilfracombe, North Devon I do not like.
Nor do I like Burnham on sea, Somerset.
Everywhere else I've been I have liked.
