The Orchards Holiday Village

The Orchards Holiday Village is packed with brilliant things to do. There's Archery Coaching and Junior Segways, plus a fantastic heated indoor pool. Outdoors, you'll find 2 lakes for coarse fishing and a challenging (par 32) 9-hole golf course to take a swing at. If you want to spend time off park, The Orchards sits among seawater creeks, near the charmingly-named maritime town of Brightlingsea.
