Our places in East Mersea

The seven places here are mostly larger lodges and holiday homes rather than small cabins for two. Four of the examples sleep 6 or 8 and have three bedrooms, and one smaller place with 2 bedrooms sleeps 4. Usual nightly prices run from £81 to £359, so the range is wide. The top figure belongs to a single smaller place, while the cheaper ones are the larger lodges with pools. If you are travelling as a group, the larger lodges give the lowest cost per head. For a couple, the choice is narrower and you will pay for a smaller space.

Check dates

East Mersea sits on the eastern tip of Mersea Island in Essex, and the lodges here suit groups and families more than couples. The typical place sleeps around 7, the largest takes 8, and most have three bedrooms or two. A usual night costs £110 for two adults, though the cheapest nights start at £81.

Several of the places have a swimming pool, and 57% have a log burner or fireplace, which matters from November to March. Sea views appear in a few of them. Only 14% accept pets, so dog owners will find a short list. Ratings average 8.2/10, a solid score for a small group of places.

By number of guests

Places sleeping 5 to 6 have 2 bedrooms and usually cost £110 a night, which works out at about £18 each. Places sleeping 7 to 9 have 3 bedrooms and usually cost £81 a night, or about £10 each. The larger lodges are therefore the cheaper option per person, and they are not dearer in total either. Three places fall in each group. If you have a group of six, it can be worth looking at an 8-sleeper, as long as you are happy to have spare beds and a bigger space to heat in winter.
