Bateman's Tower in Tendring

A great place to look at the sea, especially sunrises and sunsets.

Nice place to see a sunset and sunrise

Beautiful little spot all year round. Perfect for summer fun and a great crabbing spot too. Cafe nearby is amazing. What more could you need.

Brightlingsea's most well known landmark

A historic grade 2 listed tower, its not massive but something a bit different. Used by yacht club for start / finish of races. According to the note on the door visitors can go in, when in use on race days.

Such a lovely place, there is nothing to hate about it. The fresh air, the peace and calm

Very pleasant day, lovely bacon roll and a coffee at the cafe.About six or seven fishermen with rod and line by the tower.Barely any room in the free car park.Place was mobbed out which is pretty good going for the end of November !

Nice place for enjoying sunset. PS: the man in the photo is my friend who loves being taken in photos :)

Obviously not the full menu as undergoing renovations however I was served by two lovely ladies and enjoyed a tasty breakfast roll with coffee. Would certainly like to go back when the building work is complete and the menu is more extensive.

It's a tower owned by one of the sailing clubs. Not the greatest attraction in Essex, so don't know why it has a Google listing of its own. I guess it's a landmark on the coast and makes a prominent feature for people in the nice row of beach huts.This whole area of Brightlingsea is stunning all year round, with nice walks and great views. Good car park here as well, we use it for visiting then walk back towards the marina etc.
