Room was very clean. Staff were fabulous and friendly. Food was outstanding and the surroundings were beautiful. Bed was comfortable but for me the pillow was too shallow.

Frequently asked questions

Can I cancel my flight booking to Mersea Island due to COVID-19?
Many airlines now offer greater flexibility due to COVID-19. Our convenient Customer Service Portal will help solve most questions about which policies apply to your flight. It's also good to check the terms and conditions of your fare — preferably before booking!

What are some of the general tips for travellers to Mersea Island during the COVID-19 outbreak?
The COVID-19 outbreak has brought about big changes to the way we travel. If you're planning a holiday in Mersea Island, the following tips will help you navigate these new challenges and rules:
  • Before locking in your flight, find out if any travel bans or restrictions apply — in both your destination and origin. Get the latest updates by checking official government websites.
  • When you go through airport screening, keep your face mask on. You will be asked to briefly lower it for ID purposes. Travellers who refuse to wear a mask may be fined and denied entry.
  • Do not hand your boarding pass (paper or electronic) directly to a TSA officer. Rather, position the pass on the scanner and then hold it up to allow the agent to visually inspect it.
  • TSA is now permitting passengers to take one container of hand sanitizer, up to 12 oz (350 ml) in size, in carry-on luggage. This will have to be removed from your bag and presented for screening.
  • To reduce handling during the screening process, place personal items such as your keys, wallet, phone and belt into your carry-on rather than the bins.
  • If you're bringing food through security screening, put it in a clear plastic bag and then into a screening bin. This reduces the likelihood that a TSA agent will need to touch your food container or carry-on bag for inspection.
