3 bedroom holiday bungalow on the beach front, Point Clear Essex
Attractive property right on the sea front, literally 5 meters to the beach. Sea front garden to enjoy BBQ's etc and when the sea goes out you can collect mussels, cockles, oysters etc. The bungalow itself has a fully equipped kitchen,with oven,fridge freezer,microwave washing machine. A spacious comfortable lounge faces the sea with large sofa, TV and dining table and chairs . There are 3 bedrooms, Two are double beds and the other has bunkbeds. Sleeps 6. All bedding is provided..however you will need to bring all your own towels for the beach and indoors. The front entrance is facing the sea, the porch contains all the outside chairs, tables and sunshade. There are usually a few little buckets and spades to take to the beach..plenty of coat hooks to hang you outdoor stuff on.
There is a shower room and a separate toilet. For outdoors there are table and chairs and parasol.
The top garden is just in front of the beach which has a boundary fence to stop the little ones escaping and a gate at the back. There is an outside washing line and an indoor airer for smaller items.
Relax: Point Clear is recorded as being the driest area in the British Isles with the least rainfall. Make the most of the summer months by relaxing on the beach or windsurfing on a blustery day. The sea sometimes resembles a mill pond at high tide, it can be so calm. If you like sea fishing you can cast from the beach and catch bass and plaice (and crabs of course). At dusk enjoy the sunset over Mersea Island it makes a lovely ending to the day. These properties are quite unique because of their situation right on top of the beach. You can have bbq's on the beach as long as you tidy up afterwards. It is the perfect place to relax and enjoy yourself.
Dining & Entertainment: If you like dining out in the evenings try St Osyth or Clacton. Or on the site there is a fish & chip shop, a Chinese take-away, local pub which children are welcome and entertainment. St Osyths has restaurants and pubs for dining.(Chinese & Indian) We recommend St Osyth's for fish and chips. The Ferryboat public House 10 minutes walk and allows children. Outside the pub is a hot food hut which is open until 1.00am.(seasonal) Point Clear shares its area with 'The Orchards Holiday Village'. Although it is not a part of it and is separated from this area. As you are staying in a bungalow you will not be allowed access to |The Orchards Holiday Village|.
St Osyth has over 17 miles of coastline and was designated a Port in the 13thC. So boat building and coastal trade is a huge part of its history. Cargoes of hay and straw for London's stables and loads of sheeps cheese and butter also. There are 120 listed buildings in St Osyth, 78 are within the Historic Town limits. Many of the farmhouses are listed, several now offer holiday accomodation. The moated aisled St Cleres Hall has been in continuous residential occupation since 1320 AD. The main settlement of the village is designated as an Historic Town, and as such is protected by a long established and extensive conservation area. St Osyth is in essence a small medieval town clustered around the precinct walls of a once powerful Priory. The Parish Church inside dominates the open space and is a grade I listed building which is very large and gives a clue to the prosperity of the village in Tudor and Georgian periods. Time Team featured a search for the medieval quay a few years ago

Perfect position good size not too posh!
My husband and I took our 3 little granddaughters (7,5,2 yrs) and had a really good old fashioned seaside holiday, it was perfect for what we wanted, lots of sandcastles were built and a jolly good time was had by all.
Our stay there was a pleasure, clean, comfortable, and extremely quite and peacefully, the children would love the bunk beds, and only 5 metres to the beach promenade and sand, bus service only a few minutes walk, extremely satisfied.
A beautiful place, the kids loved catching crabs and exploring the beach. It was wonderful to have the beach right outside our door. The house had everything we needed. We were sad to leave. Thank you, Sharon and Andrew. Regards

Perfect get away from it all
Arrived to find lovely clean property very well equipped. My granddaughter was in her element on the beach directly in front of the bungalow. Beautiful views and sunsets. We took the foot ferry to Brightlingsea and went on the pedalos in the Scout boating lake behind the beach huts, it was such a refreshing change from everyday life, and I cant wait to go again!

The property was very comfortable but probably needs some updating. It is situated in a very nice position and most of the surrounding properties have been updated and modernized to a very high standard.
We left today after a v enjoyable week and definitely intend to return! The bungalow was fully equipped, spacious parking and a fabulous view of the sea just over the garden fence.
shaving was difficult due to a low mounted mirror fitted to the side of the wash basin. TV had only one channel. bed springs
uncomfortable. several cups/mugs dirty. We replaced a dirty washing up bowl etc

Cottage with Sea Views
A great little cottage right by the sea, fully equipped as a home from home, with its own car parking space and views across the sea to the island. Good mobile phone coverage. Nice sea side garden to sit in when the weather is fine too.

Perfect location
This was an amazing location, right on the beach. A short drive to town for typical beach amusements and far enough for peace and quiet. The bungalow was perfect too, had everything we needed and more. It was clean and presentable, I will definately be returning with my children!

Great holiday by the sea
This property was an ideal size for us two. It's situation, right next to the sea, is perfect.
It was comfortable, had everything we needed and was clean. The only small irritation was that we had to clean the oven before we could use it. Otherwise it was perfect and we would definitely go again.

Fabulous as always
Just got home from another lovely relaxing weeks holiday at this place.We've been holidaying in this bungalow for over 10 years now and it never disappoints us. Right next to the beach, it has every home comfort you need for a relaxing holiday. You have to be quick to book though as the weeks get snapped up quickly,no doubt repeat booking from families like ours as it's affordable and well equipped as well as being safe for kids.
