EDITORS COMMENTS
1. Title: "Vintage Seaside Adventure: The Burgh Island Hotel Sea Tractor, Bigbury-on-Sea, South Devon" 2.. Step back in time to the 1930s and experience the unique charm of Bigbury-on-Sea's Burgh Island Hotel. This photograph showcases the hotel's iconic sea tractor, an unusual yet essential means of transportation for guests traveling to and from the mainland during high tide. The Burgh Island Hotel, nestled on the tidal island off the coast of South Devon, has a rich history and allure. This art deco masterpiece has been the setting for two Agatha Christie novels, "Evil Under the Sun" and "And Then There Were None." The Beach House suite, where Christie penned her stories, offers a glimpse into the writer's creative process, surrounded by the island's tranquil beauty and isolation. The sea tractor, a staple of the island's transportation system, adds to the remote and unusual atmosphere. Guests would board this amphibious vehicle, which resembles a tractor, to traverse the shallow waters and reach the hotel when the tide rose too high for pedestrian access. This photograph, with its vintage charm and intriguing narrative, transports us back to an era of seaside escapes and literary inspirations. The Burgh Island Hotel and its sea tractor continue to be a testament to the enduring allure of the English Riviera and the power of imagination.
