We had such a lovely time at this place! The setting is really peaceful and private, perfect for escaping the hustle. The owners are super friendly and always there if you need anything, but you still feel like you have your own space. The hot tub was such a treat after a long day of cycling. Only thing to keep in mind is that the cottage is right under Stansteds flight path, so theres quite a bit of aircraft noise. It took us a couple of hours to get used to it, but honestly, it didnt ruin our stay at all!

We stayed at a really cosy place that had everything we needed. The house was warm and inviting, which was perfect given the rainy December weather. The bath was fantastic and the shower was spacious too. Being near a flight path didnt bother us at all, so dont worry about that. Its an ideal spot for dogs scared of fireworks, really peaceful in the middle of nowhere. Thanks a lot!

We stayed at this charming cottage on a working farm and honestly, it felt surprisingly private. Robert and Sharon are such lovely hosts, really friendly and welcoming. The place itself is really spacious, with a well-equipped kitchen and a comfy bed that made sleeping a breeze. The garden is pretty secluded, dog-proof and with nice furniture to relax on. There are plenty of walks nearby and Thaxted has some great restaurants like The Star and The Maypole-definitely worth a visit. Wed happily come back!

The caravan was spotless and had a really nice touch with the welcome pack of beer and wine. The outside seating was a bit cramped for six of us, but the stunning views made up for it. We had a lovely stay!
