Essex
John Constable put the waterways of Essex on the map with his prolific paintings of the River Stour.
This is a delightfully rural county, where quiet rivers wind through unspoilt villages and the timeless Chelmer & Blackwater Navigation carves through gently undulating farmland. Take a peaceful walk through vast woodlands and wheatfields, or take a cycle ride through Colchester – Britain’s oldest town.
