    Beautiful property with plenty of character, in a lovely location just a minute from the river. The property has everything we needed and the hosts kindly left a travel cot out for us in too. Communication from the host was fantastic and she was...

    Quite an incredible house, never stayed anywhere remotely like it. Unusual, wacky but fascinating and incredible character, and we loved it. Quite an adventure just exploring the house. Wivenhoe is also a very sweet place - nice, unusual...

Wivenhoe is an undiscovered gem on the Essex/ Suffolk boarder, a sailing town full of artists and eccentrics! It is a great mix of tranquil riverside charm and holiday buzz, with plenty of great little restaurants, pubs and shops. The house is Tudor, built 1580. Lovingly restored and very cozy!
I'm Irish, living in london for the last 32 years. I'm an actress, with a passion for property development on the side! I have a 15 year old son, with whom I love to travel. Traveling is our favourite pastime, but I also love listening to and playing music, visiting art galleries, cinemas, cafe/city exploring and all the rest! I also speak Russian, and lived there for a while. We won't be here it's likely and so we'll arrange for a friendly neighbour to meet you with keys, or use the key safe. I'm always available on the phone should you have any questions, or problems. The cleaners will probably do check out.
