Sandy Ridge in Holland-on-Sea - a holiday cottage with a swimming pool and hot tub

Here's a cottage for you on the Essex coast "Sandy Ridge in Holland-on-Sea". This large cottage has lots of things going for it: near the beach, a private swimming pool and a hot tub.

So let me start with the cottage itself, Sandy Ridge is a detached holiday cottage and sleeps 8 people. There are 4 bedrooms - 2 double bedrooms and 2 twin bedrooms. You have all the mod-cons you would expect from a modern holiday cottage too: satellite TV, Freeview TVs, DVD player, and you have Wi-Fi Too.

But its outside where the real fun starts. There's that swimming pool in the back garden; can you imagine having a holiday with friends or family, and being able to spend a summer's day splashing about in your own pool. And when the sun goes down, you can always take to the hot tub.

Should you want to leave the pool and hot tub behind, you can cross the road to the beach - oh yes, the beach really is that close. Play on the sand, or walk along the promenade - the choice is yours.

Or jump in the car and visit Clacton or Frinton along the coast. Or visit one of the many pretty villages in Constable Country.
