    Great place for a relaxing weekend, everything we needed and streaming services on tv was a lovely bonus. Karen communicated well and we felt like we had privacy. Pub a few mins walk away was lovely.

Ideal for short stays, holidays or business trips. Cock Clarks is a small village, with a Public House, set in the countryside a short distance from Maldon. The Self-Contained Apartment is open plan, with a double bed, large comfy leather sofa, washing machine, dishwasher, TV, dining table, and large wardrobe. Please Note: the kitchen area has a convection microwave oven but no traditional oven. Pets are allowed on request.
I run my own fashion recruitment business with my husband, and we love animals. We have pygmy goats, and rescue rabbits, and have just adopted a stray indoor cat called Jake. We are based on-site for any problems with your stay, but otherwise, your stay would be completely private and we will leave you alone to enjoy your stay.
Cock Clarks is a small village with a Public House set in the countryside a short distance to the southwest of the riverside town of Maldon. Maldon offers a choice of supermarkets and a busy High Street with a wide selection of shops, including traditional Butchers, Public Houses, and restaurants. Neighbouring villages include Purleigh (1.5 miles) and Danbury (3 miles). The surrounding countryside offers a great network of footpaths for country walks. Stow Maries Great War Aerodrome is a 5 mins drive from the property, with an exciting visitors museum and the rare sight of historic wartime aircraft. The famous Tiptree Tea Room, Museum, and Jam Shop is located 25 mins from Cock Clarks. Chelmsford city centre is a 30 min drive and offers a selection of bars and a wide selection of places to eat from independent family restaurants to well-known chain restaurants serving cuisines from around the world; Chelmsford features a comprehensive range of shopping facilities with its pedestrianised High Street, two shopping precincts, and hugely popular Bond Street with John Lewis store. There are also many leisure facilities, including Riverside Ice Rink and leisure centre.
