We had such a lovely weekend here! The place was just what we needed and we really enjoyed our stay. Our dogs were especially happy with the underfloor heating and they had a blast in the garden. Luna was wagging her tail so much she strained it - the vet says its from all the excitement! Well certainly come back again!

Our weekend stay here was just perfect. The place had everything we hoped for and we really enjoyed our time. The garden was a hit with our dogs, especially with the underfloor heating which they adored. Luna was wagging her tail so much she strained it-cant blame her! Well definitely be coming back soon. Happy pups, happy us!

We just got back from a really relaxing four-night stay at this cottage. The owners are so friendly and helpful without being intrusive, which we appreciated. Our dog loved the big fenced garden, so perfect for them to run around. The place had everything we needed and the hot tub was just brilliant! Weve already told our friends about it and would definitely come back. Thanks for a lovely break!

We had such a lovely stay at Goddard's Mead! Rob and Sharon really put a lot of care into transforming this historic building and it shows. Their warm welcome made us feel right at home, along with Bonnies friendly vibes. The place is spot on for a chill break and the location is perfect for exploring Thaxted and the surrounding villages. Definitely recommend taking some time to wander around and soak up the history and pretty sights. Great spot!

We had such a lovely stay! The cottage was spotless and had everything we needed, plus loads of walks right outside the door - perfect for the dogs.

We had a fantastic stay at this lovely little spot tucked away in a peaceful, private area. The owners are genuinely friendly and always happy to help if needed, but the place still feels secluded. The hot tub was a real highlight after a long day cycling - so relaxing! One thing to keep in mind is that the cottage is quite close to Stansteds flight path, so there's quite a bit of aircraft noise. It took us a couple of hours to get used to it, but honestly, it didnt ruin our trip at all. Would definitely recommend!

We stayed at this lodge recently and honestly, it was quite lovely. The place was spotless and very comfy, with a modern white aesthetic that we really appreciated. The floor-to-ceiling windows made it feel bright and airy. Wi-Fi worked fine and the TV was decent enough. The only thing missing was a table and some comfy chairs on the decking - the wooden bench felt a bit out of place. Would definitely come back for the quiet location!

Overall, we enjoyed the stay - the location was great and the villa was spotless with everything we needed. Sadly, we left some stuff behind and couldn't get hold of anyone afterward. Tried calling before cleaning, but no luck. Still, a nice place!

We loved the location - just a quick two-minute stroll to the beach! Booking was easy and check-in instructions were clear. The apartment had so much potential, but it wasnt the cleanest - towels with odd brown stains, greasy plates and a bed that was falling apart. Still, considering the price, its not surprising. Wed stay again though!

We found this place to be a decent base for exploring some lovely spots nearby. The chalets were pretty clean and the beds comfy, which was great after long days out. The site itself does look a bit tired and could really do with some upgrades, especially since some of the fuses kept tripping and the WiFi was pretty much non-existent in most chalets. Its good value in the off season, but we wouldnt pay the inflated prices during peak times. Still, wed come back since its quiet and suits what we need.

We just got back from a four-night stay at this charming cottage and honestly, we loved it. The owners are super friendly but never intrusive - just there if you need them. The garden is massive and fenced off, perfect for our dog to run around. The cottage had everything we needed and we even enjoyed a BBQ one evening. The hot tub was a real highlight! Were already telling friends to check it out. Thanks for a great break!

We had such a lovely stay! The hosts were genuinely warm and helpful, making us feel right at home. The cottage itself is adorable, with charming timber details and a super comfy bed. The shower was powerful and the kitchen cosy enough for relaxing evenings. Parking right next to the place was a real bonus and the whole property was spotlessly clean. We also enjoyed the walks to Thaxted, which is full of character with its historic houses and windmill. Highly recommend!

We had a lovely stay at this cosy cottage on a working farm, yet it felt super private. Robert and Sharon were such friendly hosts, making us feel right at home. The place is huge, with a well-equipped kitchen and a comfy bed that we didnt want to get out of! The gardens perfect for dogs, totally secluded and furnished nicely. Plenty of walks nearby and Thaxteds eateries like The Star and The Maypole are worth a visit. Wed definitely recommend it!
