Holiday rentals with a fireplace in Leigh-on-Sea, Southend-on-Sea

We stayed at Ian's for 6 nights & we found the house clean & comfortable. The beds were really comfortable & the area was quiet. It was lovely having the garden especially as the weather was dry & sunny. We now live in Scotland & travelled down south to visit friends & family & as we know the area reasonably well this location was ideal. Ian was available if we had any queries & he was a great host

As we walked in my son said ‘wow’ and that was all of our reaction! We have stayed in a caravan on this site before but this was a lodge and it was so much bigger! Great living space, 2 good sized bedrooms, 2 bathrooms and a veranda! 40min lovely walk along the beach/promenade into Whistable and great foodie pub just across the road (the Oyster Pearl). We had a great couple of nights here, we wished we had booked longer!

This was my first booking with Airbnb so I didnt really know what to expect but Mel has certainly set the standard. She is a friendly, helpful, honest, and incredibly responsive host. The house was exactly as described and the quiet location was perfect for us. We'll definitely stay again when we return to Mersea Island, which was beautiful too!

A lovely caravan in a beautifully quiet location with a great view, but on a park which offers lots of activities and facilities. Really comfortable beds. Ideal for couples as 3 doubles. Sharon always replied quickly when I messaged and was helpful. I’m sure we will be back in the future.

David & Karen are great hosts. Their house & garden were beautiful & kitted out with practically everything you would need. We will most definitely be using their services again when we next go back to the UK. Thank you both! X

This is the second time staying at the cosy palm and once again didn’t disappoint. The place is spotlessly clean with lots of attention to detail. The welcome pack a lovely touch and much appreciated. Great communication from Emma. Would absolutely recommend and will definitely be returning.

Tranquil setting and beautifully decorated. I absolutely loved my stay. I can't wait to book again and will do everytime I come back to the area. The roll top bath was a dream, lots of bubbles,French music playing while reading my book=my kind of heaven.

The team enjoyed their stay immensely. The property was comfortable, Clean and great location. Thank you Neville we recommend.

Lovely place to stay whilst working in the area

What an incredible place!! There was lots of really interesting information available about the location - the only national reserve where you can stay the night! The hut was very cosy, and the fireplace kept us very warm. It was quite easy to use the kitchen, just keep your meals simple. We were treated kindly and inclusively. I would recommend this to anyone!

Perfect host and apartment,would book again for sure

Scott was a responsive and friendly host and communication was very easy. The accommodation was in a great location, close to shops, pubs and a park. It was clean and had everything you need. Would definitely recommend.

Sara's house was immaculate and beautifully furnished. The beds were comfortable, the kitchen well equipped, and the bathroom very clean. It was a convenient location for us to stay while visiting my daughter at the university, just 5 minutes drive from the centre of Southend. There are shops and cafes etc just around the corner too. The only thing I hadn't realised was the fact the bathroom is downstairs just off the kitchen which wasn't ideal for my mum doing midnight trips to the loo! But we managed. We also hadn't realised about the security payment but that's my own fault for not reading the House Rules on the advert. Sara was very communicative and helpful around this. All in all, a highly recommended house.

Place was fit for our purpose, no complaints.

Stay was Good, But Need to improve some things Mainly Guest supply’s.The Tv needs to change I think have some issues. Also Bathroom shower head was leaking wasting water .One of the chair leg was broken.WC cover lid was loose not comfortable while using.
