A propos de ce cottagerental
Sea Views at this Grade II Listed Cottage with Baby Grand Piano (Pet Friendly)
Ce magnifique chalet classé Grade II construit en 1600 possède toutes ses caractéristiques d'origine, donc sa confiture chargée d'histoire. En même temps, le décor a été mis à jour pour permettre une sensation fraîche et côtière tout en conservant le confort d'un chalet aux poutres apparentes aux plafonds bas. Si vous êtes au-dessus de 6 pieds 3 ", vous ne rentrerez pas dans ce chalet car ses plafonds dans le salon principal sont très bas, mais nous pensons que cela ajoute à son charme. La cuisine et la chambre principale en revanche sont des ajouts ultérieurs à la maison et ont donc des plafonds pleine hauteur. C'est une maison qui a évolué au fil des ans et qui a une histoire à raconter si seuls les murs pouvaient parler!
Avec une cuisine et des salles de bains modernes entièrement équipées, vous n'aurez pas à subir les inconvénients de la vie d'époque, mais à la place, goûtez à la vie d'un pêcheur qui aurait pêché sur l'île il y a des centaines d'années, avec tout le confort moderne!
La maison a un grand jardin arrière avec de belles vues sur l'estuaire et une petite jetée où à marée haute on peut accéder à l'eau, pour les sports nautiques. À l'avant, il y a une grande allée avec parking pour plusieurs voitures.
La maison est située au bout d'une longue allée privée desservant seulement 5 maisons toutes nichées dans la partie "Old City" du village également connue sous le nom d'Anchorage en raison des clubs de voile / yacht et des Chandlers. Cela signifie que bien que la position soit très isolée, calme et paisible, vous n'êtes jamais à plus de quelques minutes à pied des endroits pour manger les délicieux fruits de mer proposés ou boire dans les pubs locaux. Quelques minutes de marche de plus vous mèneront au centre du village où vous trouverez tout ce dont vous avez besoin. Avec des bouchers de qualité supérieure, un bureau de poste, une banque, des magasins et des supermarchés, cela signifie qu'une fois que vous êtes arrivé, vous n'aurez plus jamais besoin de quitter l'île jusqu'à l'heure de rentrer chez elle!
L'île de Mersea se développe rapidement une réputation de «paradis gastronomique», et à quelques minutes à pied de Crabtree Cottage, vous trouverez le célèbre hangar de l'entreprise. De ce petit «hangar» au bord de l'eau, vous pouvez manger des moments de fruits de mer fraîchement pêchés hors de l'eau. Chaque week-end, les gens se rendent de Londres à ce restaurant sans prétention pour découvrir les fruits de mer frais proposés, sa réputation se répand si largement. Il existe de nombreux autres lieux de haute qualité, sans prétention pour manger les fruits de mer locaux ou d'autres délices gastronomiques, tous accessibles à quelques minutes à pied directement de la maison. Pas besoin de prendre la voiture, marchez et buvez autant de boissons que vous le souhaitez! Dégustez peut-être chacune des bières Mersea Island Breweries ou des vins Mersea Vineyard!

This is a property of such individuality and charm... certainly not for those who want a hot-tub and a 60" television, but a treat for anyone who loves the sense of a home that has been restored with great affection and attention to detail. The upper storey, sitting room and stairs are just as they were when the building was constructed, so there is definitely a need for the tall to watch their heads! Downstairs is a good-sized double bedroom with French doors onto the garden, and a very comfortable bed. There is a WC off the room, and a separate shower. A family bathroom on the ground floor also has a bath/shower. The sitting room is beautiful, and down a step is a kitchen which looks out over the estuary. We only had three days here, but enjoyed the sound of waders feeding on the river at low tide, and the lovely view. Both my husband and his grandson enjoyed playing the piano. Unfortunately, the neighbour was having some work done on his home, but was very apologetic about any noise/ issues. Mersea Island is quiet and has not been commercialised ...although there are some splendid places to eat fresh seafood ( The Duke was our favourite). There is a village centre with a Michelin starred restaurant, and a friendly community. There are plenty of places to purchase food and some enjoyable walks in East Mersea. A delight...

Sunsets from the back garden looking over the water, can’t be beat. The cottage was lovely, private and historic. Very attentive host. A great home to stay in on Mersea Island.

A really lovely little cottage in an idyllic location tucked away close to the creeks and marsh, quiet and ideal for walking our Working Cocker Spaniel with a dog proof garden he was very happy. Also coast, beach and village amenities all within walking distance and the island can still be circumnavigated on foot.
Can highly recommend the now famous Company Shed, Sea Food at Dawn, and The Coast Inn for seafood and Mersea Barns out at East Mersea for breakfast etc, and fab homewear shop, also the newly revamped White Hart Inn in the centre of the village, now very smart with a Michelin Star, and the excellent Lotus Kitchen Chinese Take Away, still there after many years have passed!
Also a must would be a boat trip around the creeks with the Lady Grace.
Mersea had not lost its magic from memories of being a true ‘Mersea Native’ born and brought up on the island, much had changed but many parts still very much as remembered.
Many thanks Vanessa.

Nice property, good parking& good location for all amenities. Just low ceilings & staircase very difficult as low & steep around a corner & have to hold a rope. We didnt bring anything upstairs as worried to how to bring it down. I normally have tea in bed but this couldn't happen as it wouldn't have been safe so had to had up!! Garden fab & big. Wasn't clear all bathrooms downstairs. Wasn't as clean i would expect. Did enjoy but won't stay again

We all loved the cosiness of Crabtree Cottage. The garden was great, particularly for the children & dog.
4.7
The listing is very accurate, and the cottage is even nicer in real life than the photos suggest. It's a perfect stay if you like older, quirky properties and don't mind wonky floors and low ceilings - my husband is 6'2" but he managed to duck his head and had no problems! The cottage is very well equipped, especially in the kitchen, and we made good use of the piano as well. The outdoor area is quiet and full of birds - a perfect, peaceful getaway. We slept extremely well in the very comfy downstairs bedroom and enjoyed cosy evenings in by the fire. There are plenty of places to eat and buy essentials nearby and lovely walks along the beach. If you like to keep busy with trips to local attractions, you'll need to get in your car, but there is plenty within easy reach if you wan this. We were happy to largely stay put and relax!

We really loved the house and had a very comfortable stay on Mersea Island. The sofa bed listed on the online description was broken was a problem for our party but we managed around it an Vanessa was charming and very helpful.
4.7
Lovely position with ample parking.
House has bags of character. Tall guests will need to mind their heads!
As a house that allows pets, a few of us suffered mild allergic symptoms. Entirely my fault however as it is advertised as such but worthwhile mentioning if your group has allergies.
Great for walks and seafood 😋

This is a lovely cottage in a really beautiful area with great views. The cottage is very spacious with comfortable seating and beds. Excellent communication with the host . Great amount of local information which we found very useful. My granddaughter loved the board games. Would definitely recommend

My family stayed at Crabtree cottage and we had a great stay. It was definately like staying in someones home rather than a holiday let. Great location short walk over to the jetty. Walking distance to shops and local pubs. We enjoyed the views over the estuary at night with a glass of wine. The downstairs bedroom and shower were ideal for my parents.

A lovely old property - very comfortable with a well equiped kitchen etc and a large attractive garden with beautiful views. Good walks and great pubs

overall we were happy with the property and excellent communication with the owner however we think that the furniture is tired/grubby looking and the oven and baking tins need a deep clean but the location and outside space is very nice and relaxing, we would stay again

We have had a wonderful stay here. Both parents (in their 80’s) absolutely loved it and to my surprise too, two boys aged 12 did too.
My elderly dad enjoyed playing the piano - even bought music with him to play.
Enough space for the boys to run around, and a terrace for my parents to sit and enjoy the sun and view. It turned out to be the perfect getaway for everyone.
We’ve loved it!!
We’ve reminisced, and made new memories too. 😊. Exactly how it should be.

The house is beautiful, traditional and quirky, decorated in a very tasteful way. A good sized garden with a sea view, you have all you need in the house with a very short walk into the town.

This cottage is the perfect location if you want to visit the oyster huts of West Mersea, just a short walk away. The cottage is lovely, however the downstairs double could do with a refurb
and rejig. Very peaceful and perfect for our annual sisters weekend away.

What a great week!
We had a great time at Crabtree Cottage and loved it's welcoming quirkiness! The views from the deck/garden were an added bonus. Comfy beds, well-equipped kitchen, lovely shower... and a baby grand piano which my daughter loved playing. Thank you for having us, Vanessa 🤩🤩

Really enjoyed our stay. Cottage was great. Had all we needed. Sunsets from the back garden were special and coming from the city - so nice to see the stars.

After having contact with the property owner and conversations with friends we have decided to leave a review as we find reviews very helpful in our choice of accommodation.
The property position is amazing with great views and in close walking distance to the town and seafront.
We arrived to find the house cold and had I not had some knowledge of plumbing we would have stayed that way as the boiler was switched off. We have never stayed anywhere before that you had to take your own bedding, sheets and towels but after seeing the mattress protector and duvet we are glad we had done so as they were old and soiled with stains on the mattress protector. They looked like they hadn't been washed or changed for a long time. We had dinner at the house on the first night but and after finding many dirty plates decided we had to wash all the kitchenware and cutlery before use. For the money we paid this could have and should have been so much better.

Lovely West Mersea
The kitchen was well equipped and had some basic food items.
The lounge was homely with the fire giving out some good heat in the evenings.
The downstairs bedroom was great : spacious and light but the upstairs bedrooms were a little more difficult with the young children as you had to walk through one bedroom to get to the other.
It was lovely to walk down to the front and go crabbing, go to the restaurants, get an ice cream. We were very lucky with the weather! We had a great few days. Thank you

My family and I had been very excited our stay in Crabtree Cottage and it did not disappoint. Absolutely wonderful location, beautiful quirky cottage with so much character and deceivingly spacious inside. The bedrooms were roomy and comfy, the bathroom was gorgeous with lovely underfloor heating and both lounge areas were comfortable and cozy. The kitchen was spacious and had everything we needed. The outside space was just idyllic with amazing views, we were so lucky with the weather and enjoyed a few sundowners are the end of the garden watching the sun set over the estuary. It was nice, safe and secluded for our little dog too. It was my parents first visit to Mersea Island and they loved it, the cottage is situated perfectly to walk to local oyster bars, the jetty and restaurants etc. Communication with Vanessa was great and we will definitely be booking again. Thank you Vanessa and family for having us.

Very comfortable property in a peaceful setting with fabulous views. First visit to Mersea - lovely old town setting with many interesting features and with easy reach of 'mainland' places of interest. Good places to eat and drink, but evenings on the terrace were wonderful. Well equipped and comfortable. Communication with host during the stay was helpful.
