Waldegraves Holiday & Leisure Park

Waldegraves Holiday Park is a well-established, family-run resort situated on the peaceful and scenic Mersea Island in Essex. Nestled where the River Blackwater meets the River Colne, the park offers a welcoming and relaxed seaside destination with excellent facilities for holidays that suit both adventurous families and guests seeking tranquillity.

Founded in the mid-20th century, Waldegraves has grown from humble beginnings into a highly regarded holiday park with a wide offering: luxury caravan holidays, touring and camping pitches, and even the opportunity to own a holiday home here. Their holiday homes give long-term visitors a place to call their own and return to throughout the 11‑month season.

The park’s amenities are varied and family friendly. There’s a heated outdoor swimming pool, a restaurant, and a welcoming clubhouse – the Wheatsheaf – where live entertainment runs throughout the season. Guests can enjoy live bands, magic shows, comedy, bingo-style game nights, and more. Children are especially well catered for: the Kids Club offers creativity-focused activities like paint-your-own pottery, sand art, T-shirt spray painting, and themed bingo.

For those seeking the ultimate comfort, the park’s luxury caravans provide a modern and stylish holiday experience, fully equipped with contemporary amenities for families or couples looking for a relaxing getaway. The park’s touring site offers spacious pitches with full facilities, making it ideal for motorhomes, campervans, and tents. With easy access to the coastline and scenic countryside, guests can enjoy the best of Mersea Island while still benefiting from the park’s high-quality amenities.

Waldegraves also embraces its natural surroundings, with lovely lakes for fishing and open spaces to explore. It’s a pet‑friendly park, so guests can bring along their four-legged friends for a getaway by the coast.

With its blend of relaxing coastal charm, high-quality facilities, and a genuine community spirit, Waldegraves Holiday Park stands out as an ideal vacation spot. Whether you’re looking for a weekend break, a seasonal retreat, or a permanent holiday home, Waldegraves offers a true escape by the sea.
