Caravan pretending to be a lodge. Overall the accommodation was clean but not hi spec. Doors were very stiff to lock. The vinyl flooring was not even in the kitchen. The water pressure in both showers was weak and in this modern digital era there was no Wi-Fi. The clubhouse was not open when advertised

We had a lovely stay! The owners are genuinely nice and really helpful, making everything feel welcoming. The cottage itself is charming with its traditional half-timbered look and the shower is surprisingly powerful. The cosy kitchen and comfy bed made our stay super relaxing. Plus, parking right outside was a real bonus. Its well heated, spotless and perfect for walks to Thaxted or exploring nearby villages with their picturesque houses and windmills. Wed definitely come back!

We had a fantastic stay at this charming cottage! Its so well equipped, we didnt need to bring a thing and our car was overloaded trying to fit everything in. The welcome pack was thoughtful, with all the info we needed plus menus-really handy. The little touches for our dogs and us didnt go unnoticed and the enclosed garden was perfect for the pups. The hot tub was definitely a highlight. Sharon and RobeRead were quick to reply if we had questions. A lovely break all round!

We had such a lovely stay at Goddard's Mead! Rob & Sharon really put a lot of effort into restoring the historic building and it shows. They greeted us warmly and Bonnie was adorable. The place is perfect for relaxing, with everything you need. The location in Essex is ideal-lots of charming villages and fascinating history just a short wander away. Definitely recommend exploring Thaxted and nearby spots for a bit of local culture.

We stayed in this caravan and found it quite cramped, especially in the twin bedroom where storage was really limited - only under the beds, which was a pain to access. Moving around the room was a bit tricky. The bathrooms felt tight and the showers were slippery and hard to shut properly. Also, no towels were provided. Privacy was a bit lacking with neighbouring caravans peering in through the windows. Not the best experience, unfortunately.

Really enjoyed our stay! The place felt brand new and super comfy. Only thing missing was a coffee table in the lounge, would have been perfect.

We had a really lovely stay at this cottage, tucked away on a working farm but surprisingly private. The owners, Robert and Sharon, are such charming people-really friendly and welcoming. 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, totally secluded and nicely furnished. There are lots of walks nearby and Thaxted has some great places to eat-The Star and The Maypole were favourites. Wed definitely recommend it!

We had an amazing stay! The house was super well equipped and kept us cosy, especially on that rainy December day. The bath was perfect for relaxing and the shower was lovely and spacious. Being on a flight path didnt bother us at all - honestly, we hardly noticed. Ideal spot for dogs scared of fireworks, nestled in a peaceful area. Thanks so much!

We had such a lovely stay at this place! The location is really peaceful and private, which we loved, yet the owners are super friendly and available if you need anything. The hot tub was a real treat after cycling around the area. A little thing to keep in mind - 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 holiday at all. Would definitely recommend!

The house is stunning and we loved the peaceful countryside around it. The courtyard with the slate was charming and the hot-tub definitely made it feel extra special. Perfect for relaxing walks too!

We had such a lovely weekend here, it really ticked all the boxes for us. The place was perfect and were already planning to return soon! Our dogs had a blast, especially with the underfloor heating-Luna was wagging her tail so much she strained it, the vet said! All in all, a great stay for both us and the pups!

We just got back from a four-night stay at this cosy cottage and honestly, it was lovely. The owners are really friendly but not overbearing, which we appreciated. The garden was perfect for our dog to run around safely. The place had everything we needed and the hot tub was a real highlight! We even used the BBQ one evening. Definitely planning to come back and already told friends about it. Thanks for a great stay!
