Sniff out the local footpaths surrounding this picturesque holiday barn, or lead the way to the local pub where your mutts will be made welcome. Set within beautiful Essex countryside and close enough to the coast for day trips, the property suits couples, friends or families, and has its own enclosed garden where your furry companions can play while you soak in the hot tub or grill something tasty on the BBQ.
This beautiful former barn enjoys a tranquil atmosphere, with pale walls, wooden floors and stylish furnishings. The open-plan living space is bright and spacious, boasting a beautiful, Shaker-style kitchen which has all the appliances you’ll need for creating delicious holiday meals. The dining table is cleverly set at one side of the island unit, and there’s plenty of room for your hounds’ bowls on the floor nearby. The lounge boasts a corner sofa that’s perfect for relaxing with a book, or a movie on the Smart TV, and converts into a bed for additional guests. The two bedrooms on the first floor, one king-size that can be converted to a twin, and a double, both have lovely rural views and ample storage, and share a stunning bathroom – note that there are low, sloping ceilings in some areas upstairs. The outside space includes a hot tub and a patio where you can dine alfresco, plus a large area of lawn that’s ideal for energetic hounds to zoom. You’ll also have use of a games room with table football and, in the grounds, there’s a pond around which children and pets should be supervised.
