Find self-catering cottages, apartments, houses and other accommodation for holidays in Essex. Essex borders London on the east, then stretches north to Suffolk. The character of the county changes as one travels northwards, becoming much more rural, with historic villages like Saffron Walden and Dunmow, and quaint cottages. Constable Country in the north, near Dedham, is very popular with tourists. The east coast has always attracted summer holidaymakers to its major seaside resorts of Southend, Clacton, and Frinton. There are numerous nature reserves and interesting places to visit throughout the county, most of which are well-connected to London by road or rail.
