Thx for the input so far guys. It really is very helpfull as I really have no knowledge at all of the area. I suppose it would help if I placed the name of where in Essex she lives but I get the idea it is quite a small place and so I feel reluctant to place it on the open forum.
I think in truth we would enjoy any kind of place,after all it is more about the quality time together than anything else.
Also as my first visit over is likely to be within the next 2 to 4 weeks and me being a wimp as far as the cold goes these days,I will likely be using a car.
Cheers once again.
