Located in the heart of South Church, this home makes a great base for those wanting to holiday close to the coast. You’ve got a train station within walking distance and Southend’s seafront, attractions, and shops a thirty-minute stroll away. Set across two floors, the rooms are well suited to families in search of home comforts, featuring a bunk-bed room that’s great for younger ones. There’s even a garden here, perfect for sunny moments. Family trip or holiday with friends, we think it’s a brilliant base for seaside adventures.

About Essex
Despite being so close to London, Essex is a world apart. With rolling countryside that inspired Constable, one of Britain's greatest landscape painters, delightful seaside towns and a host of secret coastal islands, Essex surprises at every turn.
