Birchington Vale

Absolutely spotless and lovely, very nice additions to the caravan with playing cards, board games and coasters all being included. But, we were unable to use the hot water without turning the heating on, which was awful on hot days. It could have also done with another way to dry clothes outside :) But overall, it was lovely and i would stay here again.

Really enjoyed our time here. The place was spotless, had everything we needed and the hot tub was a highlight!

Really enjoyed our stay, the place had everything needed.

It's a great way to catch up with loved ones after months apart.

We had such a relaxing weekend here! The place is super peaceful and well kitted out. Loved unwinding in the hot tub after a day exploring. The hosts are really friendly too. Perfect if you want a quiet escape!

We just got back from a four-night stay at this charming cottage and honestly, we had a great time. The owners are super friendly but never intrusive, which was perfect. Our dog loved the big fenced garden and the cottage had everything we needed - even a fully equipped kitchen. The hot tub was a real highlight and we enjoyed using the BBQ one evening. Were already planning to come back and have recommended it to friends too. Thanks for a lovely stay!

We had a fantastic time! Sharon and Robert were absolutely lovely hosts and made us feel so at home. The place was spotlessly clean, comfy and perfect for our dog Archie - he loved it! The location was just right, with loads of nice walks around and some charming villages nearby, like Thaxted. Honestly, we left feeling refreshed and relaxed, so its definitely somewhere wed come back to. Great break overall!

We had such a lovely stay at this cosy cottage! The place is spotlessly kept and super well equipped. The dog walks right outside made it perfect for the pups. The host was really friendly and quick to reply, which we appreciated. Meeting the farm animals, especially Penelope the pig, was a real treat. Well definitely return - great value and highly recommended!

The place is super tranquil and perfect for unwinding. Our dog loved the secure garden too!

The site is well put together, but the restaurant options could definitely be more varied. Staff were lovely!

The caravan was just what we needed, comfy and with a decent TV to catch the match. We didn't eat at the on-site restaurant, preferring to dine out during our day trips. Overall, a great stay!

We had a lovely quiet weekend here, perfect for our anniversary. Would definitely recommend it!

We stayed here for a week in July with our two small dachshunds and we honestly had a lovely time. The cottage itself is really charming and the hot tub was a real treat, especially during those scorching days-perfect for cooling off! The hosts were super friendly and made us feel very welcome, which was nice. Watching the planes land near Stansted from the property was surprisingly entertaining, even if it's close to the flight path. Overall, wed definitely recommend for a peaceful getaway with your pets or just for a relaxing break!

We had such a lovely weekend here! The place was just what we needed and we really enjoyed our stay. The underfloor heating was a hit with our dogs, especially Luna, who couldnt stop wagging her tail! The garden was perfect for them to run around. Were already planning to come back soon. Definitely recommend!

We genuinely enjoyed our stay! The staff were super friendly and really helpful, which made a big difference. There was plenty to keep the kids entertained and overall, the place was spotless and well-kept. We did notice a few bits outside the caravan that needed some TLC, but nothing major. Understandably, some things were off-limits because of COVID, so we werent expecting everything to be perfect. We didnt try the restaurant, so cant comment on the food. The kids ice cream was a highlight-though one took about 15 mins longer to arrive than the other! Definitely planning to come back again.

Beautiful place to unwind, super quiet and perfect for dogs with the enclosed garden. Loved it!

We had an amazing stay at this cosy cottage! The place is super well-kept and has everything you could need. Loads of lovely walks just outside the door, which was perfect for our dogs. The host was really friendly and quick to reply. Meeting the farm animals, especially Penelope the pig, was a real highlight. Well definitely return and think its fantastic value!

Really enjoyed our stay at Goddards Mead. The cottage was lovely and had everything we needed. Well definitely return!

We spent a lovely week here from July 15th to 22nd with our two mini daschunds and they had an absolute blast making new friends in the charming village of Thaxted. The cottage itself is really cosy and well-kept, especially loved the hot tub - perfect for cooling off during the hot summer days. The hosts are genuinely friendly and welcoming and it was nice to see their dogs being taken out to the fields each day. Plus, watching the planes land near Stansted added a bit of extra entertainment. Wed definitely come back!

We just got back from a really nice week at Goddards Mead. The cottage had everything we needed and was super cosy. The hosts were friendly and welcoming, making us feel right at home. Despite being on a working farm, its surprisingly peaceful. Lovely stay!

We were after a relaxing dog walking getaway and this place hit the mark! Lovely comfy accommodation, loads of green spaces nearby and charming pubs just a short stroll. The dog didnt want to leave either-brilliant stay!

Great location, easy to access coastal spots and local attractions easily.

We just got back from a week at this charming cottage and we honestly had a lovely time. The owners are really friendly but not pushy, which was perfect. The big fenced garden was great for our dog to run around freely. The place had everything we needed, including a fully equipped kitchen and even a BBQ for a summer evening. The hot tub was fantastic! Wed definitely come back and already recommended it to friends. Thanks for a great stay!

Really enjoyed the calm atmosphere and the jacuzzi was absolutely fantastic!

We had such a lovely stay! The place was spotless, super comfy and the hot tub was a highlight.

We stayed at this charming cottage nestled on a working farm, yet it feels incredibly secluded. The owners, Robert and Sharon, are such lovely people-really friendly and welcoming. The place itself is surprisingly spacious with a well-equipped kitchen and a comfy bed that made sleeping a dream. The garden's perfect for dogs, totally private and nicely furnished. There are plenty of walks nearby and Thaxteds restaurants, especially The Star and The Maypole, are worth a visit. Wed definitely recommend it!
