About this property
Discover this contemporary dark wood lodge nestled in a blissful countryside location in rural Essex. This stylish bolthole is perfect for small families or couples seeking a retreat in nature with a couple of furry companions. Drink in sweeping ocean vistas during a seaside amble at Goldhanger (10 miles), before returning home to enjoy a restorative soak in the open-air hot tub.
This stylish barn conversion features a bright interior with clean lines, chic neutral colours, and sociable open-plan living. Crunch along the gravel entranceway then step into the hallway to shrug off outer layers. Be lulled into the airy lounge/kitchen/diner and throw open the patio doors to let the breeze spill inside. Whip up an indulgent post-adventure spread in the sleek shaker-style kitchen. Perch by the wooden-topped kitchen island to pour a pre-dinner tipple, then slide onto the bench seat to enjoy an evening of festivities. Retire to the lounge area and stretch out on the corner sofa with something sweet. Peruse the Smart TV for some easy evening entertainment or get competitive with board games. Pull out the sofa bed to accommodate a couple of extra guests then ascend the staircase to find two relaxing bedrooms. Choose from an adaptable super-king-size/twin and a double, each styled in creamy tones with soft sheets. Outside, bask in the morning sunshine from the patio, get grilling on the BBQ, or enjoy garden games on the stretch of lawn.
Duck into independent craft shops, sip frothy coffees in cafes, and savour a round with the locals in Kelvedon (2.5 miles). Stroll the bustling streets of Colchester (9 miles) and admire the ancient castle or delve into a fresh seafood lunch on Mersea Island (15 miles).
