For a day at the coast, a trip to Mersea will not disappoint. Mersea gets cut off for about an hour when there is a very high tide, so it’s worthwhile checking the tides. It is a beautiful island with lots of coastal and nature walks, seafood restaurants serving the famous Mersea oysters, delis, takeaways, a supermarket and child-friendly pubs with craft beer. Why not visit Mersea Island vineyard and brewery where a beer festival is held at Easter and you can buy real ale, wines and even Mersea Island Gin? The Mersea Regatta, which has been running since 1838, is held every August and should not be missed.

Nice property
Overall the property is lovely, not fancy but very clean and well equiped. Our main issue was an error on your listing stating that 3rd bedroom was 2 beds..incorrect. The host solved the issue for us by providing a pull out bed. So all was good.
