Weybourne is fine, although I would ask first of all what you're planning to go in there with? Potentially quite a tricky strip if neither the pilot nor the aircraft are big on short-field landings. The east/west runway is about 360m and the north/south runway just over 600m. However, the southerly runway is uphill and has a hillock at the end, which might make a go-around tricky; the northerly runway slopes downhill, into the sea. A pilot who had been warned of the strips foibles, landed a stampe upside down there, a couple of years ago...
