Why we created Essex Stays - our story

We kept seeing how hard it was to find one beautiful place where a whole group could stay together. Birthdays meant splitting people across hotels. Weddings meant taxis and logistics, and missed moments. Family celebrations felt rushed.

We wanted somewhere you could arrive, settle in and spend real time together.

So we created it

Essex Stays at The Kings Head is designed for connection, celebration and ease, with room for up to 24 guests under one roof. It's about the whole experience, not just a bed for the night:

  • Spaces made for celebrating
  • Places to unwind
  • Layouts designed for groups
  • A warm, personal welcome

As a family business, we know how much the big moments matter: milestone birthdays, wedding mornings, girls' weekends and family reunions. We've now hosted hundreds of groups, earned 250+ five-star reviews and been recognised for our wedding stays and as Best Boutique Stay in Essex.

Our purpose hasn't changed: a place where people gather, celebrate properly and feel at home.
