We would like to thank all the great guests who have stayed at Six Apples over the years but sadly we will not be letting Six Apples in 2024, should you have any questions please let us know.
Six Apples
Six Apples“ is a newly refurbished eighteenth century former Coach house offering luxurious self catering holiday accommodation in an acre of private gardens with its own swimming pool surrounded by the delightful North Essex countryside.
Conveniently situated just an hour from London and a short drive from Cambridge, Stansted and Chelmsford, “Six Apples“ offers the chance to “Escape to the country” for a week long break with the family or just a short romantic weekend getaway.
The property has been carefully renovated to provide a combination of both old and new; three reception rooms; four bedrooms; solid oak floorboards throughout; two wood burning stoves; an environmentally sustainable wood-pellet heating system; three modern bathrooms; and a 50 sq m kitchen-diner that opens onto a large deck.
Comfortably accommodating up to 8 adults, there is room for everyone to gather together around the fire, as well as plenty of quiet places to have your own time, sit back and relax……
Sustainability
Living in a conservation area, we take our obligation to preserve our environment and surroundings seriously. We are constantly looking for ways to limit our carbon footprint and have so far introduced such measures as:
Rainwater tank to recycle water to the garden
Waste recycling and composting
Use of local produce and suppliers where possible
Growing some of our own fruit and veg (though we are not quite a match for Tom and Barbara yet!)
Annual tree planting programme
Vegetation – you will see that we adopt the ‘natural’ look for the gardens. A manicured lawn and perfectly tilled flower beds just wouldn’t look right here in our opinion. This view does not stem from laziness (honest!) but out of recognition that we are a part of the landscape, not apart. As such, we have to share it with all the other creatures – such as our two badgers, family of foxes, rabbits, deer and moles. So if we have missed the odd nettle and weed, sorry but that just means we get more bees and butterflies.
