Latimer House. Have a look at the pics, looks nice! Spoke to the owner earlier, very nice lady. You can rent it for the weekend for 595 quid during the off season, ie nowish. Seems quite a bit at first glance, but as it sleeps 12 it works out at less than 30 quid a head a night if you fill it.

I'm afraid the old saying has to be wheeled out: 'Harwich for the Continent, Frinton for the incontinent.'



I had family there, years ago. The tide goes out so far that my father refers to the place as 'Leigh on Mud.'

Chichester is nice.

Most people refer to Southend as Southend-on-Mud, not just your father
