 Excellent site. Friendly welcome and very clean facilities.

Great local pub with excellent food.

Nice walks around the island. Didn't see any of the red squirrels though.

Will try again next time we visit.

Reviewer: Debbie 1 review from this member

 This was the first time out in our caravan for us having decided to give caravanning a go !

The booking process was easy and the warden who met us on site when we arrived was excellent. He was very informative and knowledgable which helped us immensely. Everybody was so friendly and helpful.

The site was excellent, very clean and tidy and had everything we needed for our stay. Close to the beach and a local pub which serves excellent food.

I would certainly recommend a visit to Fen Farm and although we live in West Mersea ourselves it was a wonderful first time experience which has got us even more into the idea of caravanning and touring the British coast.

Thank you FenFarm!

 Our stay at Fen Farm couldn't have been better, helpful check in from the friendly warden & a great pitch only a short walk from the facilities.

The toilets & showers were spotless, the first thing I noticed was how warm they were when walking in & it's a nice touch having the radio playing in the background.

The showers are the push type, the water temperature was just right & they had good power.

The walk to the beach is really nice & there's some lovely dog walking areas on the outskirts of the camp site through a wooded area with lots of daffodils & some bluebells.

 Fantastic site, clean, friendly, toilets etc highly recommended. This was our first time on this site, would definitely use it again and again.

Close to the beach with lovely walks to and around Cudmore Park. Etc, with two good eateries close by, highly recommended with shops in West Mersea for all your needs.

It's a beautiful island, come and try the famous Mersea Oysters

Reviewer: Crackw 1 review from this member

 An excellent site, well run and maintained and, having three large hairy dogs we especially liked the dog friendly facilities - lots of walks and a dog shower!

Well placed for beach walks, apart from the wet and windy weather we had a lovely break.

We will be back.

 A great time to stay - with fantastic weather to enhance our stay. We love the peace and quiet that comes with the end of season.

If you love nature, wildlife, rambles in the country, combined with walks along the beach.

At the same time only a few minutes away from the town, the zoo etc etc.

There is so much to do or you can just watch the world go by.

And the site, excellent - facilities kept immaculately.

We thoroughly recommend it.

 As always Fen farm excels in the ability to make your holiday special no matter what the weather brings.

Facilties and areas sparkling clean and the wardens are always on duty to give a helping hand wherever needed. High winds and stormy weather didn’t mar our break.

The only thing that we were amazed at was a seasonal tourer telling us off when we used the water tap near her caravan she said it was her own private one ?

It was the nearest tap to our pitch! If anyone can shed any light on this as we were under the impression the water was included on the site fees not privately paid?

On our next visit we would like to know where the public taps are so as not to upset the regulars.

We paid £76 for 4 nights which was great value for money. 2 park areas for kids, beach with entertaining kite surfing and fab seafood 10 mins away.

What more could you want for a family break. Have already booked multiple dates for 2022.

Reviewer: Shirle 2 reviews from this member

 Such a fantastic site that I found by chance during the fuel crisis. Super helpful reception and warden who supported me to come here as I had run out of fuel taking my disabled daughter to uni in colchester.

When I arrived I was amazed how close to the beach this site is and how accessible(a couple of minutes walk). Lovely clean and warm toilets and showers.

Flat camping ground with no horrible "lined up" pitches. Excellent washing up and laundry facilities but with that simple camping feel.

Cant recommend them highly enough. Ive only rated location as 9/10 as this might be a little "remote" for some people? there are very few amenities nearby which is normally ideal for me but having no fuel and staying a week meant I was unable to get anywhere except on foot.

There is a small campshop on the site next door for basics which is enough, and local pub and cafe which again were enough for me. If you needed more you'd need to drive to west mersea or the mainland.

 Camping at Fen Farm on Mersea Island would highly recommend.

Really friendly warden on site.

All amenities that you would need toilets, showers, outside shower, freezer for ice blocks, washing machines, children's play park, Elsan point, dog friendly pub (dog and pheasant) close by,

Beach in walking distance, very clean, dog friendly and apart from occasional traffic if near access road peaceful.

Very clean toilets and showers cleaned 4x daily.

Will be back.

 An amazing site! The wardens were so so helpful.

The toilets and shower block were by far the cleanest we have seen!

It was nice and quiet, easy walk to the beach and lovely walks with out dog.

The dog and pheasant pub was also amazing! Lovely people and the food was to die for.

We will definitely be returning
