The cottage was lovely, really cosy and in a perfect spot for us-peaceful and away from the busy areas. The hot tub was a real treat too. Owners were friendly but not pushy, theyve got the balance just right!

We had a fantastic time at this cosy little cottage. Its perfectly tucked away for privacy but still near local shops and eateries. The hot tub was a real highlight and the underfloor heating kept everything super comfy. Rob, Sharon and Bonnie are truly lovely hosts. Cant wait to return!

We had a lovely stay at this cosy spot tucked away in such a peaceful, private setting. The hosts were genuinely friendly and always ready to help if needed, yet kept the atmosphere quiet and relaxed. After a day of cycling, the hot tub was just what we needed - absolute bliss! A heads up though, the cottage sits directly under Stansteds flight path, so theres quite a bit of aircraft noise. It took us a few hours to get used to it, but honestly, it didn't ruin our holiday at all. Would definitely recommend!

From the moment we arrived, Rob, Sharon and Bonnie made us feel truly welcome. The buildings history is beautifully preserved and the conversion is done with real care. Goddard's Mead is perfect for a chilled-out stay, with everything you need just right. The location is fantastic-lots of charming villages and towns nearby to explore, each with their own stories and lovely sights. Definitely recommend taking the time to wander around, its well worth it!

We had a great stay at this lovely cottage, tucked away on a working farm but still very private. Robert and Sharon are such friendly hosts, making us feel really welcome. The place itself is super spacious, with a well-equipped kitchen and a comfy bed that we didnt want to leave. The garden is perfect for dogs-completely enclosed with nice furniture. Plus, the walks nearby are fantastic. Thaxteds restaurants, especially The Star and The Maypole, are worth a visit. Wed definitely recommend it!

We had such a lovely stay at this cottage! Its set on a working farm but feels surprisingly private - perfect for some peace and quiet. The owners, Robert and Sharon, are genuinely lovely people who make you feel right at home. The place itself is really spacious, with a well-equipped kitchen and a comfy bed that we didnt want to leave. The gardens super secluded, dog-proof and nicely furnished. There are plenty of walks nearby and Thaxted has some great eateries like The Star and The Maypole. The Swan and Indian are worth a visit too. Wed definitely recommend it!

We had an amazing stay at this charming cottage. Its really well looked after and has everything you could need. The dog walks right outside the door made it perfect for our furry friends. The host was lovely, super helpful and quick to reply. Meeting the farm animals, especially Penelope the pig, was a highlight. Well be back for sure!

We had a really lovely stay here! The place is tucked away in such a peaceful spot, perfect for escaping the hustle. The owners were genuinely friendly and always happy to help without intruding on our privacy. The hot tub was a highlight after long bike rides - pure relaxation! A quick heads-up, though: the cottage sits right under Stansteds flight path, so theres quite a bit of aircraft noise. It didnt bother us much once we got used to it, but if you're sensitive to noise, its worth knowing. Overall, a great find!

We had a fantastic weekend here, exactly what we needed. The place was perfect and were already planning to return. Our dogs had a blast with the underfloor heating and romping in the garden. Luna especially wagged her tail so much she strained it - the vet says its just from overexcited wagging! All happy pups and humans!
