Oh I do like to be beside the seaside.... All on the Ground Floor:

Dining area.
Kitchen area: Electric Oven, Gas Hob, Microwave, Fridge/Freezer, Coffee Machine, Air Fryer
Bedroom 1: Double (4ft 6in) Bed Ensuite: Bath, Toilet
Bedroom 2: 2 x Single (3ft) Beds
Shower Room: Cubicle Shower, Toilet. Heating, electricity, bed linen, towels and Wi-Fi included. Verandah. Private parking for 1 car. No smoking. . 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!
