General
- Laidback pop-up site on a coastal Essex farm
- Five minutes' drive from Mistley and 15 minutes from Harwich
- Direct beach access; a few minutes' walk from the Essex Way
Ragmarsh Farm Pop-up Campsite is a relaxed nine-acre farm site on the peaceful east coast, located between Wrabness and Mistley. With direct beach access and stonking sea views, there's a lot about this place to lead one to believe that truly, the only way is Essex…
The farm actually owns the stretch of beach adjacent to the pitches, and the waters of the Stour are splendid for bathing at high tide; with its gentle gradient, it's easy to always stay within your depth. Because of the stony sea bed, you'd do well to pack a pair of jelly shoes or flip flops if wading out here.
This site is off-grid, but high-end mobile loos are available in a trailer that's subject to thorough and regular cleaning. There's also a shower trailer where you can scrub up after dips in the sea. Barbecues are allowed at Ragmarsh Farm Pop-up Campsite (on the paving slab provided), and there's a mains cold water supply that guests can access (the site also has a bowser for non-drinking purposes, and sells bottled water in five-litre bottles).
This pretty part of the coast doesn't get quite as much press as its Suffolk counterpart on the other side of the River Stour estuary, but strolling along the nearby Essex Way (a few minutes' walk from site) is a great way to explore these quieter beaches, marshes and well-preserved seafront villages (like Mistley, which is five minutes' drive away) and towns (like Manningtree, which is 10).

Hi Sheila, we're glad your enjoyed your stay.
Apologies for the toilet, when we investigated it turned out that unfortunately somebody had accidently dropped an iPhone down there and that was causing the issues.
Hopefully we'll see you next year 😊
