Brilliant welcome from Mike and Birgitte, great shop, lovely studio, we staying for 2 days, great patio bar, super cocktails. Very comfortable stay. Highly recommended.
Not only a lovely boutique store with something for everyone, but also a fabulous cocktail bar. We had such fun here last night thank you so much.
There’s always a treat to be found in this designer shop and a fabulous cocktail to enjoy by the fire with the Great Danes family
Brilliant shop - my Danish family are thrilled we can get hold of our favourite øl so easily now. Lovely selection of scandi bits online also. Have done multiple orders and all have been quickly and efficiently delivered. Tusind tak!!
Lovely shop, I am an avid maileg collector and it’s great to find all sorts of Mailegs and see new ones in the newsletters, always enjoy a trip here for mailegs and cute gifts.🐭🌸
Cute little shop. As a Dane...I thought the selection of Danish stuff could be better🇩🇰 But then again I don't know what sells in the UK
A fantastic little shop that you can purchase sea side memorabilia and as well as jewellery and thinhs to decorate the house with. Always worth a look in!
such a delight to go in here they are always welcoming and of course - something different when buying that special gift on a day out.

What a Gem this place is ,took friends there and were made to feel so welcome, great hosting and can't wait to go back and enjoy the cricket next season, a great place to enjoy a nice drink and feel comfortable
Honestly such a GREAT place for everyone including children. Great atmosphere if you’re out for a drink for the night or out during the day in the summer. Beautiful views, cheap drinks and food but most of all anyone is made to feel like family. Great bar staff, in general just a brilliant place a credit to the Frinton community. And if you like cricket there pretty good at that aswell.
We went for the first time bank Holiday Monday what a great place and had a great time will definitely go back.
We attended the first music festival as part of their Cricket Week. Brooks Williams played an early set before heading to Cambridge Folk Festival. The ground looked lovely, the club house was great (Although the urinals are set a bit high lol) the people were friendly and welcoming... Loved it ..
Great place. Very English old cricket ground. Cheap membership, lovely staff, great people.
When they have an event on they play very loud music till the early hours of the morning. I live quite some distance from the grounds and can still hear the 'music' They should have more responsibility for the local area. Just because they are in a middle of a field does not mean the sound does not travel.
Great club that's run very well and always make you welcome.
Attended a wake, lovely hospitality very welcoming

Interesting church dating back to 11th century and the smallest complete church in Essex. Open to visitors and includes Morris and co stained glass window, which is a great bonus. And beautiful grounds which are tended in a way which encourages wildlife.
St. Mary's is a small stone, rural Essex church. It's indicative of what a tiny rural outpost Frinton-on-Sea truly was prior to its makeover as a resort, that St. Mary's once served as it's church. Considered to be the tiniest such building in Essex, it has no tower & is truly a quaint example of ecclesiastical architecture. It's not only set in a grassy churchyard, but with a separate visitors' garden at the back of the churchyard. For some reason, the front churchyard is signed Garden of Rest, but this also is located behind the church. It's a truly secluded, tranquil place, within hearing distance of the sea & often full of birdsong. St. Mary's churchyard is often being patrolled by at least one of the local cat population...
The smallest complete church in Essex. Saxon & Norman origins
Lovely little church, in fact, smallest in Essex. Set at the end of town towards the beach.
The smallest complete church in Essex. Services are held in a church a few minutes away but you can still go in and worship on your own plus it's delightful just being there. Although it's near a busy road the graveyard has a quiet quality about it
St Mary the Virgin is the smallest complete church in Essex and is a Grade II listed building. The Nave is C14th and only 25 yards long whilst the porch was rebuilt in 1879 using the C16th bricks. The East window contains William Morris stained glass to a design by Edward Burne-Jones and installed around 1862 As this church was too small for the regular worship, a new one St Mary's Parish church (St Mary Magdalene) was built in the town in 1928. This church is normally open to view.
Very photogenic church.
Lovely little church built in 11 hundreds

Interesting shop with lots of things from the Art Deco period. The most astonishing things though are the full-size telephone box and the Shell petrol pump inside the shop. Worth a visit.
What a brilliant shop, The only one like it in Essex or Suffolk, great selection of vintage clothing and plenty of Art Dec memorabilia. And the staff are very friendly. Fantastic day out in Frinton, plenty of shops and cafes.
Amazing shop filled with a huge variety of wonderful art deco items and absolutely fabulous clothing. It is the most interesting shop to visit in the area. The owner is a genuine enthusiast and really friendly and passionate about his work. Wonderful experience just browsing and always something interestng to see and buy.
Beautiful shop with wonderful objects, lights, jewelry and more, however whilst browsing today, I noticed the man working in there seemed to put his own random price on things and then got it wrong when there was a cheaper price on the item. He was ripping people off and actually it turned customers away so therefore he lost out on multiple sales. Not very savvy clearly for a 'business man' shop keeper!!
Incredible little shop of wonders. Be warned, you will be taken back in time!
Lovely shop, although vey expensive. But that’s antiques for you and I suppose you can ask a best price. I bought some lovely Art Deco style greeting cards which I assume are made on site. Unfortunately they are spoilt by having an advert for the shop printed on the back (I had thought it was a flyer inserted into the cellophane holder). The flyer is awful and fills the whole back of the card, with a photos of a stupid dog (WHY?) and nonsense about vintage clothing. I hope they remove the ad from future cards as it looks terrible and I couldn’t give the cards to people.
Whatever you're looking for, it's here. Never seen a shop filled with so much vintage 😍 it's like a small museum
Just fabulous! A place to reinvent yourself. Owner and dog are friendly, enthusiastic and funny. The stock is top quality and I defy you to leave empty-handed!

A lovely clean hall. My friend had a cake stall here over the Easter weekend. We met some lovely people who bought her delicious cakes.
Cockney night. Perfect atmosphere. Thank you.
Good space for events. Played a gig there and it was fun. No WiFi though.
I wish the doors and window frames, weren't painted black. Otherwise quite good.
Came here to see The Ladykillers recently. What a fantastic show with the most amazing actors - such talent and such comic timing. Hilarious show from start to finish. Thank you so much to all involved - you made it a memorable evening 😊
Good size hall that held a 22 stall fete with room for more. Has a medium size stage, rear and side fire exits. Good location and friendly locals.
Went to the antique fair yesterday. Lovely little stalls and the lady who did the cakes and tea was lovely! Everyone was. Great little place just off the Avenue.
Super evening organised by Frinton Summer Theatre. A one man show with Ian McKellen talking about his life and the theatre. Lots of poems and speeches. Discussed all of Shakespeare's plays. Brilliant. Best production at Frinton that I've seen and I've been going for 48 years.
