Self-catering  holiday cottages in Essex

Essex stretches all the way from the east of London to the coast, south east to Kent and the Dartford River crossing, north towards Suffolk and Constable Country, west to Hertfordshire.   It offers plenty of variety with everything from excellent shopping centres, extensive coastline with sailing and beaches, country parks, gardens to visit, historic towns and villages.  It is also very close to London and makes a good base for exploring the south east with occasional forays to London, Cambridge, and Suffolk. 

The following self-catering holiday cottages are located in different parts of Essex:

Mill View and Orchard Cottage (a timber-clad farm building conversion) each sleep 4 people and are mirror images of each other. They are set well back from the road with ample car parking space. Facing west at the rear onto meadowland, guests are virtually guaranteed glorious sunsets from their own patio.

If the patio gets too hot, you can relax in the shade of the small orchard, where you will find additional seating - a very relaxing place to read a book or just take a well earned rest. Views of Thaxted's cathedral-like church and famous windmill can also be enjoyed in the distance.
