Great days out

Set in some of the most beautiful countryside in the county, The Whalebone is the perfect place to drop in for lunch or on the way home to save having to cook. These are close by:

• The Fingringhoe Wick Nature Reserve - 1/2 mile
• Lady Chatterley Gardens, Clacton - 15-20 minutes by car
• Abberton Reservoir visitor's centre - 7-8 miles
• Abbots Hall Farm (near Great Wigborough) - 7-8 miles
• Mersea Island - 6-7 miles

Sometimes you just need somewhere to relax and chill out after a busy day enjoying yourself!
