Had everything we needed apart from a torch when there was a power cut ????

Outstanding, was so clean and everything was well maintained.

We had a fantastic stay at this cottage! The place is really well looked after and has everything you need. There are loads of great walks right outside the door, which was perfect for our doggos. The host was super friendly and quick to reply. We loved meeting the farm animals, especially Penelope the pig. Definitely coming back, such good value! Highly recommend.

We stayed at the Little Gem cottage recently and honestly, its got everything you could possibly need - no need to bring anything! We overloaded the car because its so well equipped. The welcome pack was really helpful, full of useful info and menus, which was a nice touch. The owners, Sharon and Rob, were super quick to reply if we had any questions. Our dogs loved the enclosed garden and the hot tub was just what we needed for some relaxing evenings. Thanks for a lovely break, well be back!

Wed happily come back and recommend it to anyone looking for a peaceful getaway!

Just amazing!

We loved the cottage! Its perfectly tucked away but still close to shops and stuff. The hot tub was a real highlight and the underfloor heating made it super cosy. Rob, Sharon and Bonnie were lovely hosts. Cant wait to return for a longer stay soon!

We had a lovely stay at Goddard's Mead! Rob and Sharon really put a lot of effort into restoring the historic building and it shows. They couldnt have been more welcoming, along with Bonnie, of course. The place has everything you need to unwind comfortably. Plus, the location is perfect-great for exploring Thaxted and nearby villages with their charming history and beautiful buildings. Highly recommend for a peaceful getaway!

Lovely spot, would definitely visit again

We had a lovely stay at this cosy cottage tucked away on a working farm, yet it felt really private. The owners, Robert and Sharon, are such warm, friendly people. The place itself is surprisingly spacious, with a well-equipped kitchen and a comfy bed that was perfect for a good sleep. The garden is great-completely dog-proof and furnished nicely. Plenty of walks nearby and Thaxteds restaurants, like The Star and The Maypole, are worth checking out. Wed definitely recommend it!

We had such a great weekend here, it really ticked all the boxes for us. The pups had a blast, especially with the underfloor heating-Luna was wagging her tail so much she strained it! The garden was perfect for them to run around. Were already planning to come back, cant wait! Truly happy dogs and humans alike!

We just got back from a week at Goddards Mead and honestly, it was lovely. The cottage had everything we needed and the hosts were so friendly and welcoming. Being on a working farm, it still felt peaceful-a true good place! Definitely recommend.

We really enjoyed our stay here! The place has everything you could ask for and then some. Everything feels fresh and modern, which was lovely. The hot tub was a real highlight and the big bath was a bonus. The interior design is stylish and small touches like salt, pepper and extra dishwasher tablets made it feel extra thoughtful. Wed definitely come back without hesitation. The only thing was the WiFi wasnt working, but at least the TV was connected to another, so we still had some entertainment. Overall, a great spot!

We had such a lovely stay! The house was super well equipped and kept us warm on that rainy December day. The bath was perfect and the shower was great too. The location is ideal if your dogs hate fireworks-completely quiet and peaceful. The propertys beautifully converted and really charming. The only thing to note is the flight path noise, but honestly, it didnt bother us at all. Thanks so much!

We had a lovely stay at this charming cottage, especially enjoyed the hot tub and cosy log burner. The hosts were super friendly too!
