We've got some great things to do here at Mersea Island. Our park facilities are nestled neatly together by the coast and include the Muddy Duck Clubhouse, a kids outdoor play area, small arcade and an indoor swimming pool, all blessed with views of the nature reserve and beach. The park has its own private beach overlooking the Blackwater Estuary where you can launch your boat or Jet Ski. We’re adjacent to Cudmore Grove Country Park, a dog walkers paradise as they have so much space to roam freely whilst you take in the fresh sea air. We are a pet friendly park with plenty of space to walk them and offer pet friendly accommodation!
