House Boat
This is the House Boat at St Osyth. It's a boat you can stay on, moored in a yard on the creek. It sleeps two, in one bedroom.
It’s a three star rating, so it’s comfortable but not luxury. It's got a wood burner, which is good for cooler evenings. The main thing is you're on the water. When the tide’s in, you’ll feel the boat move a bit. It’s gentle, but you will notice it.
There’s a footpath from the yard that follows the coast towards Point Clear. Right opposite the boat yard is an aqua sports centre. They do wakeboarding and paddle boarding, and there’s an inflatable aqua park.
St Osyth village is a short drive away. It's an old place with a priory. You’ve got your basic shops and a couple of places to eat there.
A few miles down the road you've got Clacton and Walton-on-the-Naze. Both have piers and amusements. They do fireworks over the sea in summer.
Colchester is about a twenty minute drive. It's got all the big shops, the castle museum, and Castle Park. The Essex cricket ground is there too. For a day out, Colchester Zoo is popular. Dedham Vale, which is Constable Country, is about a half hour drive west. It’s nice for a walk.
Facilities: TV, bedding and towels are included, parking is right there. You can bring one dog. It’s all electric and the utilities are included.
