About this property
Positioned in the peaceful village of Barling Magna in Essex, is this pleasant, one-bedroom annexe, 493 Little Wakering Road. Enjoying a front courtyard to dine alfresco in the warmer months, this single-storey abode makes a great base for a couple looking for a hideaway. The annexe is settled behind the owner's home with its own off-road parking space, so you can unload your luggage with ease. Step inside to the open-plan living space with a kitchenette hosting an oven, hob, microwave and a washing machine to keep your clothes fresh. When meals are served, enjoy mealtimes together at the dining table; afterwards carry the conversation outside onto the courtyard with a cold beverage. As the evening cools, retire inside and look forward to freshening up in the shower room whilst your towel keeps toasty on the heated rail. When sleep calls, there is a well-presented double bedroom with ample storage and patio doors leading out to a private patio. In the morning, awaken with a cup of tea and home-cooked breakfast with the kitchen appliances to assist you before exploring your surroundings. The next village, Little Wakering, is home to a convenience store so you can grab any of the essentials and a welcoming pub, where you can savour real ales.

History buffs will love exploring Prittlewell Priory, while shoppers and foodies will find plenty of treats in the lively town centre.

The hosts are fantastic and very welcoming. Very accurately depicted in the photos. Very clean and has almost all the amenities you could need. The only downside however, and for some quite major, is the lack of WiFi. The mobile reception is very poor at best to compound the issue. The only network with anything at all is EE (And associated networks). I downloaded a Lyca Mobile E-sim and was able to get some 4G reception in certain areas (Very cheap and no contract!) Otherall a very nice stay for work though. Will definitely return.

The property was clean and modern but quite small and therefore limited storage space by which I mean there was no vacuum cleaner nor mops etc to clean the property so we felt quite guilty not being able to leave without being able to clean properly. There is a smart TV which is quite strange seeing as there is no Wi-Fi but it was quite satisfactory for us. Perhaps an ordinary Freeview TV with DVD would have been a better choice. We did make some suggestions to the owner for ways to improve such as provide a space with table, mirror and chair for ladies to do their make-up. Also a new mattress because the present one is past its best. There is a washing machine but nowhere to hang out the washing. An airer on the patio would have sufficed. We also suggested an information pack would be a nice thing to provide listing of services, attractions, bus routes, etc. We took a bus outside the property to go into the city. It went 4 miles to Shoebury then turned around and came all the way back to where we started before going on in the opposite direction to the city centre. It would have been helpful to have known that! The property was clean and tidy. A parking space is part of the property. The property is in a quiet rural area which suited us perfectly.

Easy access to beaches and sea front of Southend and to quiet country roads for walking. Welcoming, pleasant, discret owner. Most enjoyable stay.
