Congratulations, you’ve survived the summer holidays… well, almost! Now it’s your turn.

After weeks of keeping everyone else entertained, September is the perfect excuse to slow things down and enjoy a little time for yourself.

Think breakfast in bed, lazy mornings in your private hot tub and evenings with a book under the stars. No school runs, no packed lunches and, most importantly, nowhere you need to be.

September is already filling up, so if a post-summer escape sounds exactly what you need, now’s the time to get something in the diary.

Stay Put and Relax

Sometimes, doing absolutely nothing is exactly what you need.

Once you arrive at The Partridge Retreat, there really is no need to go anywhere. Fire up the BBQ as the sun goes down, pour yourself something cold and settle into your private hot tub beneath the stars.

If you fancy taking the relaxation a little further, head over to the spa for a massage or couples’ treatment, unwind in the sauna or brave the cold plunge.

After a busy summer, sometimes the very best plans are no plans at all.

Not Quite Ready for Summer to End?

If you’re not quite ready to retreat into full relaxation mode, there’s still plenty of summer fun to squeeze in before autumn properly arrives.

The Partridge Retreat puts you within easy reach of the coast, countryside and plenty of days out, so you can make your stay as relaxed or adventurous as you like.

Seal Spotting Boat Adventure

Take a trip over to Harwich and head out on the water for a seal-spotting adventure.

With guaranteed seal sightings, it’s a brilliant way to spend a few hours together and see a completely different side of the Essex coastline. A lovely one for families, couples and anyone who fancies adding a little adventure to their stay.
