The details
Little Wren is the cutest cabin just for two. It sits among the trees, overlooking the water of a large private lake in the Essex countryside. It makes the perfect spot to relax, slow down and just spend time together.
Inside the cabin is compact but perfectly formed, with large windows and double doors letting in the tranquil lake views. The living area comes with a kitchenette with hob, sink and fridge, ideal for cooking up eggs for breakfast and other easy meals. There's a sofa where you can put your feet up, open the French doors and sit with a coffee - or light the woodburner and snuggle up in the evening time.
Behind the living space is the sleeping area, with double bed made up with cosy linens underneath a window, so you can take in those lake views when you wake up. And behind the bedroom is the neat ensuite shower room.
Outside, the wooden deck with loungers and fire pit is where you'll want to make the most of mild afternoons and summer evenings. Chill with a good book, cook dinner al fresco over the fire, or just do nothing and watch the swans swim by and listen to the breeze in the trees.
If you fancy a wander, the cabin sits on an organic farm, with the Essex countryside surrounding. For days out the shops, restaurants and pubs of Colchester are only a few miles away.

The cabin was set in the most relaxing and beautiful surroundings. It was clean, tidy, cosy and had everything we needed, yet was kept as simple and as eco friendly as possible. The wood burner was a real bonus for the winter and warmed the cabin in no time (there was an electric heater but we didn’t need to use this). The bed was so comfortable and waking up to the surrounding scenery was amazing. There were beautiful walks direct from the cabin round the lake and to the woods. We would definitely recommend this accommodation and will hopefully return.

Had a lovely time. Best bits are sunset and dawn when the birds are really active. Sitting out on the deck in the evening with a fire. Beautiful dog walks in the woods on the far side of the lake.
