"We stayed at Goddard's Mead recently and honestly, it was lovely. Rob and Sharon put so much effort into sympathetically restoring this historic building and it really shows. Their warm welcome made us feel right at home, along with Bonnies friendly fuss. The location is perfect for exploring Essex, especially if you enjoy wandering through Thaxted and nearby villages. Its a peaceful spot with lots of charm. Would definitely recommend for a relaxing break!"

"Really loved the furniture, both inside and outside, it totally matched the Safari Tent vibe. The kitchen was well stocked and small touches like towels and washing up liquid made all the difference. Will definitely return!"

"We loved the spot here! The panoramic tent was just fab and the location is perfect. The staff were really helpful throughout our stay. The cove nearby is a lovely walk down the hill, definitely worth it, plus the old tin mine ruins are a must-see!"

"We recently stayed in the Panorama Dome at Blue Hills Touring Park and honestly, it was such a great experience! The place itself is really spacious and well-equipped - perfect for a comfortable stay. The en-suite bathroom surprised us with its size; we didnt expect it to be that roomy. When we arrived, the beds were already made up, which was a nice touch and everything was spotless. One of our favourite bits was the covered outdoor area at the top of the steps - its got some comfy furniture, ideal for relaxing outside. Down below, theres a decked area with the BBQ, picnic table and hot tub, all undercover. The hot tub had been drained, refilled and heated up beforehand, so it was super easy to get into after our long walks. Speaking of walks, we loved exploring straight from the site - there are some cracking routes along the South West Coast Path, taking us to St. Agnes, Perranporth (where we grabbed some top-notch kebabs for the BBQ from the local butchers) and Porthtowan - all with stunning views. The nearby village of St. Agnes is charming, with shops, pubs, cafes, museums and even the Driftwood Spar brewery. We only used the car once to visit Truro - the Park and Ride was a breeze and we booked our tickets online beforehand. All in all, we had a fantastic week and cant wait to come back!"

"Our Blue Hills Holiday Park review: We loved this charming little cottage, especially the cosy log burner and relaxing hot tub. The hosts were lovely and super helpful too! Hope to come back soon!"

"We had a fantastic stay! The house was super well-equipped and kept us cosy on that rainy December day. The bath was perfect for relaxing and the shower was spacious. Being near a flight path didnt bother us at all, so dont worry about that. Its in a quiet spot, ideal for dogs scared of fireworks. Really lovely place, thank you so much!"

"Really enjoyed the place, would come again!"

"We had a fantastic stay at this lovely retreat! The location is really peaceful and private, perfect for unwinding. The owners are super friendly and keep a good balance of being available without intruding. The hot tub was a real treat after our cycling adventures - total relaxation. Just a heads up, the cottage is quite close to Stansteds flight path, so theres quite a bit of aircraft noise. It didnt bother us much after a while, but if youre sensitive, its worth knowing. Overall, a great place to escape to!"
