Wow 100% worth every penny but it wasn't even that expensive very very affordable and trust me when you see this caravan it's so homely and tastfully decorated.

An excellent location, so close to the beach and local restaurants. Very dog friendly and we loved the doggy gift! The caravan was really clean and so well equipped. We had a perfect and relaxing weekend. The heated pool was also lovely.
Gillian
Date of stay: 1st November 2023
Caravan was nice and clean, not worn or tired. The park is well kept and laid out nicely. This site is more suitable for caravan owners, not for a holiday. But if you are looking for a base on Mersea that is quiet and comfortable this site is ideal
Jennifer, Norwich
Date of stay: 31st July 2020
Lovely caravan! Slept 7 comfortably (could not fit 2 adults on the sofa bed if needed). All doors need to be WD40'd as we're so squeaky they woke up the children everytime a door was opened, This was really irritating even in the day. Shower was lovely and giving 2 toilets a real bonus! Would book again.

Only marked down on cleanliness as a 5 year old found 5p on the floor of a bedroom within 2 mins of arriving and a toy car was in the cupboard. Considering deep clean was stated and door sealed due to covid and check in/ check out meant we had to arrive an hour later(5pm instead if 4).. and leave by 9am not usual 10 it did make us question the "deep clean".

Date of stay: 20th July 2020
Could just do with some outside furniture at caravan
Carole, Warwickshire
Date of stay: 28th December 2019
Could have been cheaper as nothing open and nothing to do.

Anne, Southend-on-sea
Date of stay: 30th October 2019
Bar area not big enough , took grandchildren to the pool at 9am to be told it’s only for owners till 10-00 , which was disappointing to the children, when you details dosnt day that , plus the pool was cold when we did go in !

Tins, Nottingham
Date of stay: 3rd June 2019
Nice spacious caravan. Handy to have the en suite toilet with 4 adults and 2 children staying. Also liked the fact that the gate on the decking had a lock, so our 2 year old granddaughter was safe. Would have liked a teapot!
Jane, Hockley
Date of stay: 2nd June 2019
Great. I'd definitely consider a return trip.
Mary, Banbury

Our caravan was very clean and very well equipped, it was warm and cosy and very spacious it had everything we needed . we were left a welcome pack for our puppy a really nice touch she loved it and still does enjoy her blanket and toy
Julie, Aveley , Essex
Date of stay: 8th July 2018
Overall we enjoyed our time there , our caravan had not been cleaned properly on arrival.
I did report it to reception , toiletries left in cupboard from previous guest & cat litter left under the sink! The microwave didn't work either but we dint need it so didn't report that.

We were in Poplars number 41 -
I had requested we as a family group with two other families be together & was told we would be in the same row & we were but would have been nice to all be next to each other?

Karin
Lovely park with great staff. Nice to have direct access to the beach too.
Rachel
Fantastic stay and back again this weekend! Great for kids dogs and adults x
Sarah
Beautiful, meticulously clean caravans. Really spacious too (we had 2 x 3 bed caravans). The site is really quiet, right on the seafront, and all other caravan users were really friendly. Great seafood stall on site - delicious! Highly recommend.
Lucy
We had a great holiday here, it was the perfect sized park. The facilities were easy to access and it was great to be by the beach and have access to a pool. There’s a great kids park near by. The staff were lovely and the caravan just right. Thank you so much.
Kelly
Lovely holiday park, not too big. Pool and private beach access as well as play park on site. Small clubhouse and shop also, would have been nice to have a choice of takeaway available but the town is only a short drive away. Overall a nice place for a short break.
Adela
Really happy with my jubilee weekend. The caravan was lovely and clean. The area was nice but the weather wasn't great. A nice kiddie play area was available but it would have been great to have one onsite. Luckily our kids were able to swim otherwise no swimming slots available for an adult. Overall a happy customer.
Katrina
Didn't need much help as everything ran quite smoothly once we arrived. But they nicely allowed us to leave our bags in the garage until our cab came. Which was really nice of them. Would definitely come back and would definitely bring friends back with me. Thanks for a lovely break away.
Lesley
Very peaceful get for dogs loved my weekend will definitely be going back
