• Low impact relaxation with a round of golf, a game on the pitch and putt or a spot of fishing

• Attractive indoor and outdoor pools with food and drinks on the sun terrace

• A spot of lively traditional seaside fun - at nearby Clacton or Brightlingsea

THE PARK:
Almost hidden away in a tranquil part of deepest Essex, it's hard to imagine the lively resort of Clacton-on-Sea is just a few miles away from The Orchards.

With terrific indoor and outdoor pools, a gorgeous sun terrace, a couple of superb fishing lakes and a 9-hole golf course it's very self-contained - especially with a full programme of family entertainment every day and throughout the evening.

Feel free to fill each day in just your own way. Every family is different of course, but a typical day might begin with a lazy lie in or a family B Fit session. It could be a morning in the heated indoor or outdoor pool complexes or a round on the 9-hole golf course.

Lunch out at a great little pub or pop into our Mash and Barrel: Lounge-Bar-Café. Afternoon try the Archery or Fencing Coaching, explore Clacton-on-Sea or a spot of fishing on the Coarse Fishing Lake.

Early evening enjoy a stroll on the beach, a game of Bowling or a barbecue. Then head off to the ShowBar for a drink, live music and dancing.

So, whether it's out and about or staying on the Caravan Park, you're sure to have a great holiday at The Orchards.
