I have used nose clips in the past for the same reason. I kept losing or breaking them and decided to learn to not get water in my nose.
As I do tumble turns and front crawl it took some practice and now I don’t suffer with it at all. The trick is to always breathe out through your nose when your face is in the water. It’s second nature now but it took a lot of conscious effort for a few sessions.

Thanks. Was a nose clip helpful when you did use them? I might give them a try for a bit as I only really get to swim once a week, max.

They certainly keep water out of your nose but it means all your breathing is through your mouth, which is what I had to unlearn to ultimately fix the problem. The speedo wire nose clip was the best by miles if you are going to get one.
