The locations spot on - loads of nice walks and charming villages like Thaxted nearby. We definitely felt refreshed after our week away. It was just what we needed for a relaxing break and wed happily come back!"

"We really enjoyed our stay here, especially the peaceful, secluded spot its tucked away in. The owners were super friendly and always ready to help if needed, but they kept a respectful distance, which we appreciated. The hot tub was a real highlight after a long day of cycling-its just what we needed! The only thing to mention is that the cottage is quite close to Stansteds flight path, so aircraft noise is noticeable. It didnt bother us much after a while, but if youre sensitive to noise, its worth considering. Overall, a lovely place!"

"We had such a lovely stay at this charming cottage! The hosts were genuinely friendly and went out of their way to help us with everything. The place itself is adorable-lovely half-timbered design, super clean and really cosy. The powerful shower and comfy bed made our stay even better. Parking right next to the cottage was a real bonus. Plus, the walks around the fields to Thaxted were perfect for a relaxing day out. Would definitely recommend!"

"We really enjoyed our stay at this lodge! Its super warm, spotless and well-equipped. The full-size fridge freezer was handy, especially with the welcome fizz! Everything you might need is there - washer/dryer, dishwasher, microwave, oven and even tea towels and cleaning supplies. The towels, robes and slippers for the hot tub made it extra special. Theyve thought of everything, including throws and dog treats for our furry friend. Honestly, it made our break so much better. Would definitely come back!"

"The place really hits the spot for us. The location is perfect and Lindsay, the manager, is always there to help without any fuss. Our dog loves the big garden and the nearby walks. The lodge is modern, well-equipped and just a great spot for a relaxing break. Well be back!"
Sarah - Feb 2024
"We had a fantastic time at this lodge! Its super modern, really spacious and spotlessly clean. The underfloor heating kept everything cosy and the kitchen had all the gadgets we needed. The hot tub was a real treat after a long day, especially with that complimentary fizz to enjoy. Our dog loved the large, secure garden-he was in his element with bowls, treats and a comfy blanket provided. Linsey was lovely; she greeted us on arrival and was available if we needed anything, which made a big difference. Overall, a brilliant stay - wed definitely come back!"

"Honestly, this was the nicest lodge weve stayed in so far. The private gated area makes it super safe, perfect for families or couples just wanting some peace and quiet. We booked the Oxford for 6 but only had 3 of us plus our little one, whos 20 months old - so he had plenty of space to run around. The decor was genuinely lovely, couldnt fault it at all. The staff, especially Lindsey, was so friendly and down-to-earth, like wed known her forever. She was always available if we needed anything, though luckily we didnt. The lodge was fully stocked with all the cutlery, pans and even BBQ bits you could ask for. The nearby corner shop has everything too, just a 10-minute walk away. The whole place was spotless and everything worked perfectly for us. We loved it so much that weve already booked again. The garden is stunning and everything on site is kept in top condition. Definitely a place well keep coming back to!"
