“Perfect”

Reviewed 1 Jun 2021

We had such a brilliant stay at Osbourne Cottage. So much prettier in the flesh and in the most perfect location. I have been coming to southend for 36 years. We have stayed in many houses but this is by far the best. Very clean, modern and has everything you could want during your stay. Can't wait to come back. 2 kids, 4 adults and the pup ☺️
