Local attractions

The area of tidal mudflats between the estuaries of the Blackwater and Crouch is home to Dengie National Nature Reserve (15 minutes’ drive). Birdwatchers flock to this Site of Special Scientific Interest to spot dunlins, oystercatchers and curlews, plus wintering populations of Brent geese. Established in 1916, the Stow Maries Great War Aerodrome (20 minutes) played a key defensive role during World War I. Today, it still has several original buildings from that tumultuous time, as well as a collection of WWI aircraft and a lively programme of reenactments. If history is your thing, it's likely you'll also appreciate Mangapps Railway & Museum (10 minutes) and St Peters Chapel (15 minutes), the oldest church in England. For a day surrounded by plants and blossoms, head to RHS Garden Hyde Hall (20 minutes), where themed areas present vegetation from different parts of the world, including Australasia. There's also an interesting Dry Garden planted with drought-tolerant plants and a bird hide overlooking a reservoir inhabited by herons and cormorants. Enrol in a tour or tasting at Crouch Ridge Vineyard (10 minutes) or the New Hall Wine Estate (15 minutes, and on cellar door days) too.
