Friendly and family-run, Malting Farm offers a range of individually designed and lovingly furnished holiday retreats, all beautifully positioned in a secluded North Essex meadow.

Surrounded by soothing nature walks, a sweeping coastline, and serene, picnic-worthy riversides, you’ll find it hard to believe that you’re a mere 90 minutes away from the bustle of London!

Perfect for couples and families alike, accommodation includes stylish, luxurious, rustic cabins, and an enchanting glamping glade that’s home to four family-sized bell tents… so there’s something to suit everyone.

No matter which you choose, you’ll find a scrumptious home-baked cake to help your stay get off to a delicious start!

Named after Essex’s native wildlife, the three cabins each boast their own unique style, sleeping 2-6 guests in rural comfort. All come with underfloor heating, private hot tubs and full indoor kitchen, bathroom and dining facilities.

The Scandi-inspired Stoats Burrow features a kingsize bed and double-sized bunks, with natural tones and plenty of cosy throws for that unmistakable sense of hygge, while Hare’s Hideaway boasts an indulgent feature bath in the master bedroom.

Ideal for slightly larger families, Otters Lodge includes a kingsize bedroom, and two sets of bunks in the second bedroom for the ultimate in flexibility.
