Westcliff-on-Sea is a laid-back seaside town that forms part of Southend-on-Sea in Essex. It's got that classic coastal charm—think clifftop views, old-school cafés, and long walks along the promenade—but with a lively, slightly arty streak running through it. The area around Hamlet Court Road has a mix of independent shops and local eateries, while the seafront gives you uninterrupted views across the Thames Estuary, with sailing boats drifting past and fresh sea air in your lungs. It's one of those places that feels cheerful yet unhurried, and it still has a bit of that faded Victorian grandeur about it.

The town really came into its own in the late 19th century, growing from a scattered rural community into a bustling resort as the railway brought day-trippers from London. Westcliff developed as the slightly more refined alternative to Southend's noisier arcades, and its name reflects the steep cliffs and west-facing views. Grand houses and hotels sprang up along the cliff tops, many of which are still standing. These days, the population hovers around 21,000 and the area's become known for its strong sense of community, cultural events and thriving theatre scene, including the long-standing Cliffs Pavilion.

There's plenty to enjoy in and around Westcliff itself. Cliffs Pavilion is the star of the show—a major performance venue bringing in everything from stand-up and concerts to full West End shows. There's also the Beecroft Art Gallery, showcasing local talent and historic collections, and the Westcliff Gardens, which run along the seafront and are perfect for a gentle stroll with a view. If you're in the mood for something a bit different, take a wander down to Chalkwell Beach or explore the independent shops and cafés along Hamlet Court Road. Nearby, the National Trust's Leigh Old Town is full of winding lanes, seafood shacks and estuary views, while English Heritage's Hadleigh Castle offers striking ruins and sweeping countryside.

Wider Essex is full of places worth exploring. Colchester gives you Roman history and a bustling town centre. Maldon's famous for its maritime heritage and quaint high street. Saffron Walden offers timber-framed charm and a decent market. Then there's Dedham Vale—Constable Country—if you're after riverside walks and rolling fields. The coast serves up everything from the bright lights of Southend to the peaceful vibe of Walton-on-the-Naze or Mersea Island, where oysters and sunset views are the order of the day.

Getting to Westcliff-on-Sea is straightforward. It's served by its own train station on the c2c line, with regular services running into London Fenchurch Street in just under an hour. The A127 and A13 both provide easy road access, linking the town to the M25 and the rest of Essex. Southend Airport is just a short drive away and offers flights to a range of European destinations. Buses run regularly between Westcliff, Southend, Leigh, and surrounding areas, so you won't struggle to get around even without a car.

Essex is one of those counties that constantly surprises. It's got a bit of everything—ancient woodland, lively towns, peaceful estuaries and bustling seaside spots. There's a proud sense of identity, shaped by centuries of history, trade and resilience. Some parts are smart and polished, others are rough around the edges, but that's part of the charm. Whether you're looking for Roman ruins, artists' villages, hidden pubs, or long walks with a sea breeze, Essex rarely disappoints.
