Vacation rentals in Rayleigh

I cannot praise Mick & Helena enough for the quality of their information, their pristine dwelling, and thinking of everything a person might need during their stay. We had an amazingly restful week, would recommend and will be booking again for next year.

This was my first booking with Airbnb so I didnt really know what to expect but Mel has certainly set the standard. She is a friendly, helpful, honest, and incredibly responsive host. The house was exactly as described and the quiet location was perfect for us. We'll definitely stay again when we return to Mersea Island, which was beautiful too!

appsolutly lovely clean and well stocked with all you would need .great location

This Airbnb is perfect! True luxury with no corners cut. So relaxing to have the hot tub and sauna in beautiful, peaceful and private surroundings. The instructions before arrival and around the home made everything so easy. This has been designed with the guest in mind- comfortable, luxurious with lovely touches. Very child friendly and safe but equally a beautiful, stylish interior. The hosts have thought of absolutely everything and were excellent hosts. Thank you for the birthday balloons and cake- a lovely touch. We will absolutely be back. This place is almost too good to be true…

We had the most wonderful stay at Parkdean, and I can't recommend it highly enough! From the very beginning, the host's communication was absolutely top-notch – clear, friendly, and super efficient. The booking process was smooth and stress-free, which really set the tone for our whole trip. The caravan itself was spotlessly clean, beautifully presented, and incredibly comfortable. It had everything we needed and more – we genuinely couldn't believe the amazing value for money. For the price we paid, we got so much more than we expected! It's rare to find somewhere that offers both quality and affordability, but this place really nails it. The whole experience felt like a little slice of luxury without the hefty price tag. If you're looking for a fantastic getaway that doesn’t break the bank, this is it. We’re already planning our next visit!

Great place to stay for a getaway! Host was always responsive even for a last minute booking. Would recommend to others!!!

Our party was a group of six ladies and the main reason for our trip was to visit Call the Midwife location in Chatham Docks. This house was a perfect location -approximately 2 miles away. We travelled by taxi to the docks and came back on foot and on the bus. There are a number of food shops and eating places close by. I would thoroughly recommend Rowlands Bistro nearby. There was plenty of space for all of us in the living/dining/kitchen area with comfortable seating. The kitchen had enough equipment for self catering, although we didn't eat in apart from breakfast. All the beds were very comfortable and clean and there were enough washing facilities-two showers, plus basins with plenty of soap, shampoo, toilet rolls etc. The heating in the house was very good. Kingsley was a very helpful host and very quick to respond each time I made contact. The property is excellent value for money and I would be more than happy to stay there again- I thoroughly recommend it.

Abi’s place was exactly what we were looking for in a home away from home. The house was well stocked, spotlessly clean, homely and the perfect size for us. With free parking outside it was ideal for our work van. The neighbourhood was quiet, which helped get a good nights sleep each night. It’s a short walk to the local pub for dinner and drinks and has a convenience store on the corner for any essentials. Abi was a wonderful host, with clear instructions, making it easy for us to check in and out. We were made to feel very welcome and would recommend Abi and her home to anyone!
