Tucked away in the scenic countryside of the Tendring Peninsula, this stunning holiday home is the perfect retreat for a small family or two couples and their four-legged friends. With spectacular country views, this two-bedroom holiday home offers plenty of space, both indoors and out, for you and your canine companions to unwind. The property sits on the same land as the owner''s home but enjoys complete privacy with its own walled garden, ideal for your pets to roam freely while you soak up the sunshine.
Step inside the charming retreat, finished with traditional Essex weatherboarding, to find bright and airy interiors designed with both style and comfort in mind. A spacious ground-floor king-size bedroom (with the option to convert into twin beds if needed) sits next to the family shower room. The heart of the cottage is the chic country kitchen/diner, offering ample room to prepare delicious meals. The open-plan layout flows into the lounge, where glass doors lead out to the garden – ideal for letting your canine friends explore while you relax on the leather sofa, catching up on your favourite shows. A staircase leads to the mezzanine level, where you''ll find the second king-size bedroom, complete with a Juliet balcony and glass door offering lovely views over the garden and surrounding countryside. The enclosed walled garden is the perfect spot for summer days spent lounging in the sun or enjoying a BBQ. With a patio, sundeck, and lawn area, your dogs will love having a space to safely explore. There’s also private parking for one car.
Spend the day discovering the dog-friendly cafes and pubs of Clacton-on-Sea (5.5 miles), or visit the sandy, pet-positive shores of Walton-on-the-Naze (9 miles), where playful hounds can bound around in specified zones at any time of the year. Cudmore Grove Country Park on Mersea Island (19.5 miles) is pure dog heaven. This lovely park hugs the coast and has lovely year-round walks to get tails wagging. For a change of scenery, head to Colchester Castle (11.5 miles), where your canine companions are welcome to explore the lower gardens.
