Essex Homes for Six People

The Lakeside Glam-pod

• 6 guests

• 2 bedrooms

Hertford, Hertfordshire

Situated right on the lakeside with its own private, wood-fired hot tub this fantastic glamping pod offers comfortable accommodation for up to six guests within its light and surprisingly spacious feeling interior. Unwind in the warm waters of the hot tub as you gaze out over the lake, soaking up the tranquil views of the water and the countryside, or fire up the barbecue to cook up something tasty on a sunny afternoon.

The Winkle Picker

• 6 guests

• 3 bedrooms

West Mersea, Essex

It feels like every detail has been considered at this beach village home. Crabbing equipment is provided for days exploring the rockpools of Mersea beach (a five-minute stroll away) and there’s a ping pong table in the summer house, making the perfect secret den for kids.

Raindrops On Roses

• 6 guests

• 3 bedrooms

Hatfield Broad Oak, Bishop's Stortford

There are parts of this home — such as the wooden ceiling beams and thatched roof — where you can see this seven-hundred-year-old cottage's age. There are other features, however, that do their best to hide this big number.
