Waldegraves Family Holiday Park, the place to stay in Essex! Attractive pitches are a feature at Waldegraves.
(537)

Waldegraves Holiday Park is situated on the beautiful and historic Mersea Island overlooking the sparkling Blackwater Estuary. Family run and owned, Waldegraves is a great mixture of holiday homes and touring areas for motorhomes, caravans and tents. Guests can enjoy well-maintained standard grass pitches or a limited selection of hard-standing and serviced pitches, some with hedges to offer a greater level of privacy during your stay. For a holiday or short break with all the comforts of home, stay in one of our luxury caravan holiday homes, fully equipped for your perfect family break. Dogs are welcome on site on leads and have their own exercise area. The park facilities include an outdoor heated pool, restaurant, bar and shop. There’s also 4 fishing lakes, children’s play areas, pool tables, a family arcade, entertainment venue, a private beach, a dog walking area, crazy golf, footgolf, a driving range and 18-hole pitch ‘n’ putt course.

Thinking of a Holiday Home at Waldegraves But Don't Know Where to start? 🏡

Owning your own little slice of Mersea Island is a big decision, and it's completely normal to have plenty of questions before taking that first step. Here's an easy way to begin ⬇️

Get A Feel For The Park 🌳

Not sure if ownership is for you? With Try Before You Buy, you can book a break with us, and if you decide to buy during your stay, we'll refund the cost of your holiday (T&Cs apply).

Do A Bit Of Homework 📚

Request our ownership pack and take your time going through everything from the comfort of your sofa.

Find The Right Fit 🔎

We have new and pre-loved holiday homes, from great value starter holiday homes right through to luxury lodges. If you've already got a static, tourer or motorhome, we can also offer part-exchange.

Explore Park View & Elmwood ✨

Book a VIP tour of our new lodge developments, complete with private parking bays, EV charging points, super fast WiFi and your first years site fees included.

Ask Us Anything 💬

No question is too small. As a family-run park for over 70 years, we want every owner to love their holiday home, so our team are always happy to talk things through.

Once you've found the one, we normally aim to have you settled in within 2 weeks, ready to enjoy our 11-month season.

November is a lovely, quieter time to come and have a proper look around 🍂
