21 Holt Drive is a delightful cottage set on the fringes of historic Colchester, offering a peaceful getaway with easy reach of the coast and countryside.
Blending homely charm with a smart, welcoming finish, it’s an ideal base for families or small groups seeking to explore this scenic part of Essex.
Step inside to find a well-appointed kitchen equipped with everything you need to prepare hearty meals, from a coffee maker for slow mornings to a dishwasher that keeps things easy.
The adjoining dining area sets the stage for relaxed family dinners, while the living room provides a comfortable place to unwind after a day out, complete with a TV and WiFi for your entertainment.
Upstairs are three inviting bedrooms: a king-size, a flexible zip/link king (which can be made into twins on request), and a single room ideal for a child or solo guest.
The family bathroom offers a walk-in shower, basin and WC, while a downstairs cloakroom adds a touch of practicality.
Central heating, bed linen and towels are all included, along with a travel cot and highchair for those bringing little ones.
Step outside and you’ll find a private patio enclosed for peace of mind, with outdoor furniture and a barbecue ready for those long summer evenings.
The highlight, though, is the hot tub, perfect for sinking into after a day exploring.
There’s also off-road parking available on site.
Colchester itself is steeped in history, home to a magnificent castle, leafy parks and a great mix of independent shops, cafés and restaurants.
Head to Mersea Island for fresh seafood and coastal walks, or take a short drive to Dedham Vale, the heart of Constable Country, to see the landscapes that inspired the artist’s famous paintings.
For a classic day at the seaside, Clacton-on-Sea is within easy reach, while London is close enough for a spontaneous city adventure.
Whether you’re chasing quiet countryside charm or lively day trips, 21 Holt Drive puts it all within easy reach.
