<p>So much more than a self-catering holiday, our Osea Island accommodation offers a complete escape from reality. This secret tidal island is set in the Blackwater Estuary in Essex. Forget check in times, this hidden gem is only accessible for a few hours a day when its Roman causeway appears and you have to race the tides to arrive before it’s idyllically cut off from the mainland. You’ll arrive to wild, secluded beaches, mature orchards and 360-degree sea views - hard to believe this oasis is just 90-minutes from London.</p>
<p>Whether planning an intimate gathering with family and friends or hosting a large-scale event, Osea Island’s holiday homes, facilities and venues will exceed your imagination. Take your pick from weatherboard holiday cottages, cool beach houses, Arts and Crafts apartments and manor houses. </p>
<p>Osea’s accommodation all offer understated luxury, with four poster beds, roll top baths and real fires in almost every property. There’s everything from dog friendly holiday homes to cosy couples’ cottages. For big family holidays or get-togethers with friends, there are two large luxury holiday homes sleeping up to 22 - one a cool coastal villa and the other a grand turreted manor house.</p>
<p>Yet the main lure to stay on Osea Island is the freedom to explore the hidden corners, communal facilities and characterful venues at your own will. Pick up one of the many island bikes and set off on a two-wheel adventure, dive into the heated outdoor pool or saltwater lido or spend rainy days in the cinema room watching classic films. Meet new friends or party with old ones at the tiny island pub, The Puffin, at the quirky ‘Shack’ bar, or around one of the many fire pits dotted around the island.</p>
<p>As well as self-catering holiday cottages, Osea Island is also available for special events, as well as exclusive private hire of the entire island. With two stellar venue spaces, the Power House and Bomb Factory, as well as the pub, pool, Shack and acres of outdoor space, the possibilities are limitless, from weddings and wellness retreats to festivals and music events. And with 28 holiday cottages on Osea, there’s sleeping capacity for up to 188 guests’ weary heads.</p>
<p>From private island hire to self catering holidays, Osea Island is a place like no other.</p>
