Steeple Bay Holiday Park - Caravan Holidays

Why you’ll love this park...

  • Stunning waterside retreat with beautiful views of the estuary
  • Entertainment the whole family will love
  • Large well-stocked fishing lake

Discover Steeple Bay and escape to a wonderful, waterside retreat with beautiful views of the estuary. Situated on the coast near Southminster, the park is the hidden treasure of the South East of England, with ready access to the Mayland Creek.

If you're looking for a relaxing getaway for all the family then Steeple Bay is the right place to be. Choose to spend time in our Riverside bar or take a dip in the heated outdoor swimming pool, while the kids have fun around the park with Loopy and his friends. Or take to the nearby waters; you don't have to be an active boatman to enjoy the location though, just watching the boats and yachts go by is the perfect therapy for today's stressful lifestyle.

The park boasts great facilities including a well-stocked fishing lake (with day tickets available from reception), an adventure playground and an amusement arcade. Along with our leisure pool, there is also a paddling pool for our very youngest guests. Visit the clubhouse to round off a perfect day with tasty food and drink available, along with live music and top shows during busier periods.

The medieval town of Maldon is nearby with lots of shops and great restaurants to discover (Thursdays and Saturdays are best as they are market days). Other "must-see" Essex attractions worth jumping in the car for, include Adventure Island, Chelmsford Miniature Railway, Colchester Zoo and the famous pier at Clacton-on-Sea.

Or just revel in the majesty of the park surroundings; Steeple Bay Holiday Park sits along the banks of the Blackwater Estuary with beautiful unspoiled views across the water and, if you are lucky the sight of seals that are frequent visitors to the area. The seals love the area, and in all likelihood so will you!
