We absolutely loved staying here! The rural setting was stunning and the courtyard with its slate finish was just gorgeous. The hot tub really made it feel special. Perfect for walks too.

We loved this cosy little cottage! Perfectly tucked away for some peace, yet close enough to town. The hot tub was a highlight and the underfloor heating kept everything super comfy. Rob, Sharon and Bonnie made us feel really welcome. Cant wait to return for longer!

We stayed at this place and honestly, it was fantastic. The house is super well-equipped and kept us warm even on that rainy December day. The bath was lovely and the shower was spacious-just what we needed! Being right on a flight path didnt bother us at all and its perfect for dogs that dislike fireworks since its so remote. A really beautiful conversion, wed come back for sure!

Loved our caravan. Wish we could have turned it round and had the master at the other end as it was the kids room at the side where everyone walks home from the park/entertainment but not a huge thing.In all honesty it could have been cleaner but it wasnt a massive deal just for the price youre paying arriving somewhere spotless would be nice.

We recently stayed at Goddard's Mead and really enjoyed our time there. Rob and Sharon clearly put a lot of effort into restoring the historic building, which adds a lovely charm to the place. They greeted us warmly, along with Bonnie, which made us feel right at home. The location is perfect for exploring Essex, especially if you enjoy wandering around Thaxted and nearby villages-so much history to soak up. Definitely recommend for a relaxing getaway!

We stayed at this charming cottage recently and honestly, it had everything we needed - we didnt have to pack much at all! The owners, Sharon and Rob, were super quick to reply when we had questions. The welcome pack was really handy, packed with all the info and menus, which we appreciated. The little extras for our dogs and us were a lovely touch. The enclosed garden was perfect for the pups and the hot tub? Absolutely fantastic. Thanks for a lovely break, well be back!

The cottage was really charming and perfect for a peaceful getaway. The only thing to note is the occasional night flights from Stansted, but the hot tub made up for it! We loved it.
