This lodge-style property is located on the fantastic West Mersea Holiday Park, 300 yards from the immaculately presented West Mersea beach with its feature brightly coloured beach huts. The lodge features two good-sized bedrooms and offers excellent accommodation for four people. An open plan kitchen, dining area and living room together with a wraparound verandah make this an excellent location to come and enjoy a long weekend or holiday.
Good quality fixtures and fittings have been used and the property benefits from a modern kitchen and two bathrooms, the en-suite also has a bath. Your living area is all on one floor so feel free to kick back in the comfortable sofa seating or enjoy the sunset and a glass of something cold from some of the outdoor seating. The name of the game here is relaxation… this property benefits from plenty of natural light along with free Wi-Fi and parking. What a great base to explore everything that Mersea Island has to offer.
Only 300 yards to the beach where you can explore or just take in the seaside sights. On-site, there is a beachside café and park as well as a small shop (seasonal) and a bar serving food & drinks. Mersea Island is famous for its seafood, oysters and sailing, but has so much more to offer. Walkers, cyclists and water sports lovers will enjoy the location. Close by you’ll find tea rooms, coffee shops, pubs and restaurants as well as a butcher, bakery and supermarkets.
Cudmore Grove Country Park is situated a short distance away at East Mersea and is terrific those who prefer green open spaces and quieter spots. Mersea Island is a great base but if you want to get out and about then only 20 minutes away and you can be in the historic city of Colchester or the market town of Maldon, both well worth a visit. Further afield you’ll find both Chelmsford and Southend – why not put them on your bucket list? This property is perfect for guests who like to get out and about, or just pop their feet up!

The caravan was in good condition, very clean and well equipped and I enjoyed my stay. The holiday park itself is well maintained, right by the river and is excellent for long walks and stunning sunsets.

The sandbanks restaurant and bar was hardly ever open, it says on its website it’s open from 9am till 11pm, it was shut most nights by 7pm, they didn’t want to do food, it was too much trouble to even change the menu, it was the lunch menu every day. Nothing in the shop, only stuff for the beach, no selection of food in there, the only good thing about our holiday was we could walk up to Waldegraves and get lovely food and it had a well stocked shop.

A large, spacious unit, on a quiet site. There were one or two issues with fixtures and fittings which didn't spoil our overall enjoyment of the holiday. The owners, who live at some distance were very helpful. Would recommend.
