Frinton-on-Sea is a quiet, refined seaside town on the Essex coast, known for its clean beaches, long greensward, and a timeless, slightly nostalgic atmosphere. It's the kind of place that still has a bit of old-fashioned charm – beach huts, tree-lined avenues, and an unhurried pace that draws in both holidaymakers and locals looking to escape the noise. With no arcades or loud fairgrounds, Frinton has kept a traditional feel, making it popular with walkers, families and anyone after a bit of peace by the sea.

Frinton's history as a seaside resort really took off in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Before that, it was a small agricultural village with little more than a church and a few cottages. With the arrival of the railway and a vision for a genteel resort, the town transformed – grand houses were built, golf and tennis clubs were established, and it became a fashionable retreat for those wanting something a bit more exclusive than your typical British seaside town. It attracted well-heeled visitors from London and was once seen as a coastal extension of the capital's high society. Even today, that legacy lingers in the quiet elegance of the place.

There's plenty to enjoy in and around the town. Frinton's beach is one of the best in the area – wide, sandy, and gently sloping, ideal for swimming, sandcastles, or just stretching your legs along the shore. The promenade and greensward offer stunning sea views and a great place for a picnic or a lazy afternoon stroll. Connaught Avenue, the town's main shopping street, is packed with independent shops, cafés and a handful of smart boutiques. A short hop down the coast brings you to Walton-on-the-Naze, home to the Naze Tower – an 18th-century navigational landmark with an art gallery and tearoom. National Trust's nearby Jaywick Martello Tower and English Heritage's Landguard Fort over in Felixstowe offer some solid day-trip potential for those interested in coastal defence history.

Essex has no shortage of places worth exploring. Colchester is packed with Roman heritage, a castle, galleries and shops galore. Head to Dedham Vale for walks through Constable Country, or venture down to Maldon where the estuary and traditional Thames barges give you a completely different waterside experience. Southend is still a favourite for families – complete with the world's longest pleasure pier – while Saffron Walden delivers character and cobbles in spades. If it's coast you're after, Essex offers everything from saltmarshes and shingle to sandy beaches, all dotted with unique little towns and villages full of personality.

Frinton is well connected, yet it still feels pleasantly tucked away. There's a train station right in town with regular services to Walton and Colchester, and on to London Liverpool Street via the Sunshine Coast Line. The A133 links Frinton to Clacton and Colchester, with easy access to the A12 and M25. If you're flying, London Stansted is the closest major airport – just over an hour away by car – with London Southend Airport also within reach for domestic and short-haul flights. Buses run regularly to Clacton, Walton, and surrounding villages, and getting around on foot or by bike is a breeze in a town this size.

Essex is a county of contrasts. It's often thought of in stereotypes, but the real Essex is full of variety and charm. There are historic towns, rolling farmland, ancient woodlands and more coastline than most people realise. Market towns, commuter hubs, rural hamlets and seaside favourites all rub shoulders here. You'll find real community spirit, strong roots, and a growing food and arts scene across the board. Whether you're into history, nature, the sea or just somewhere with a bit of character, Essex has more going for it than it likes to admit.
