Thirslet

Thirslet is a two-bedroom first-floor apartment overlooking the Blackwater Estuary in a quiet coastal setting. Built to take advantage of its waterside position, the property sits with windows framing views across the water. It sleeps four: a double bed in the main bedroom and two singles in the second, plus a shower room with heated towel rail. The open-plan living and dining space is bright and naturally lit, with seating for four at the dining table and a sofa facing the water.

The kitchen is equipped for self-catering, with an electric oven, induction hob, microwave, fridge-freezer, washing machine and coffee maker. Underfloor heating runs through the kitchen and bathroom; the rest of the apartment has electric central heating. Wi-Fi, bed linen, towels and electricity are included. Parking for one car is on site. The property is non-smoking.

Being directly opposite the water's edge gives immediate access to the beach and local walking routes through the salt marshes. A sailing club, ski club and waterfront pub are nearby. Maldon town centre is within reach for oysters, historic barges and museums, while Burnham-on-Crouch offers further options for a day out.
