Oli’s guidebook- The Upper Cleddau Estuary
Sightseeing
Creswell Quay is a pretty village at the end of a tributary of the Cleddau Estuary. It is an ancient wooded estuary with great walks and salt marshes which are good for bird watching. The Creselly Arms on the quay is a good old fashioned pub, it only serves drinks, does nt allow children inside and I think it still only takes cash! The quay is great for kayaking at high tide which is when Cresswell Quay is at its prettiest. It is a great starting/landing spot to kayak/paddleboard along the estuary with the tide to Lawrenny or vice versa. The river drains dry at low tide with stepping stones crossing. Creswell is 30 mins from Sutton.
