Details
Ideal for a relaxing break. Watch the bird life and enjoy a walk in the countryside. A rural location but close enough to Colchester to explore Britain's oldest recorded town. 15 minutes from Mersea Island and 30 minutes from the coast. Abberton wildfowl centre is just 2 miles away.
Pondview on the ground floor is a twin bedded apartment with a shower. The lounge, dining room and kitchen are open plan and it does have a view over the pond!
Cartlodge also on the ground floor has a king size bed and is suitable for wheelchair access, with a wet room. It has a view towards the moat.
It also has an open plan lounge, dining room and kitchen.
The Granary is upstairs and is suitable for a couple or a small family. It has a bath with an overhead shower. The view from here is over the fields toward the reservoir.
