A TINY holiday village in the UK is home to a unique ‘cloud bar’ – the only one in the world.

Anderby Creek is near Lincolnshire, although remains off the beaten track.

It is home to a number of holiday cottages hat overlook the beach.

Not only that but there are also a number of campsites and caravan sites to choose from as well.

According to the tourism website, the long sandy beach is “quiet, unspoilt and [has] plenty of space”.

Not only that but it was named one of the best beaches in the UK by The Times.

Daniel Start, author of Hidden Beaches Britain also raved about the place in his book, calling it “a perfect hidden beach with endless golden sands backed with dunes and with very few people.”

But is also home to the world’s only cloud bar.

It’s not to be confused with an actual bar, as there are no drinks being served there

Built in 2009, it it is dedicated to being a good cloud spotting place.

Instead there is a raised platform with five convex mirrors you can rotate.

A cloud menu also allows you to watch and spot them.

One tourist said it was “magical” while others said it was a “brilliant idea”.

Otherwise there is also a cafe, public toilets and car parking open to the public.

Or if you want to visit a proper bar, there is Popa’s Kitchen serving food and drink.

One person wrote: “Anderby Creek is a gem of a village with a spectacular beach but relatively undiscovered so wonderfully peaceful.”

Another agreed: “Beautiful hidden away secluded beach.”

Anderby Creek is around 25 minutes from Skegness.
