We had a fantastic stay! The house was super well equipped and kept us really warm, which was a lifesaver on that rainy December day. The bath was a real treat and the shower was roomy and powerful. Even with the planes overhead, it didnt bother us at all - dont let that put you off. Perfect spot for dogs who dislike fireworks, so peaceful and scenic. Thanks a lot!

We spent a week here in July with our two little dachshunds and honestly, it was lovely. The village of Thaxted is charming and the cottage itself is really cosy. The hot tub was definitely a highlight-especially with the hot weather, cooling off in there was pure bliss.
