Reviewer Type: Extended Group
Travel Purpose: leisure
Positive: Jacqui, the host, has been superb! Sharing useful and detailed information with us prior to our stay and also on our arrival. Happy Place was cosy, fantastically decorated for easter and full of treats for the children. The location on the island is perfect, Marsea barn in a couple of minutes drive and the vineyard is only a few miles away. Colchester zoo is a must and less than half an hour away. The complex has everything needed, from a restaurant to a small shop, a playground and swimming pool. All by the beach.
Negative: Nothing. It was perfect and would return!
Summary: Seriously an Happy Place!
