“A curated collection of my favourite places in Essex. Hidden gems, scenic stops, cosy cafés, and independent shops I’ve discovered over the years. Whether you’re exploring or just passing through, these are the spots worth knowing about.”

Wivenhoe
Wivenhoe is a little gem of a town. I never get bored of visiting this place especially in the summer or on a sunny winters day. It has all the things I love, pubs, cafes, interesting properties and water and boats! So this unique Essex town gets a big tick in all those boxes from me. On the outskirts of Colchester town (literally a couple of miles from the town centre) it is definitely worth visiting (whether by car or by train).
