"We spent a lovely week here with our two little dachshunds, who really loved meeting other dogs in the charming village of Thaxted. The cottage itself is really cosy and the hot tub was a real highlight, especially during those scorching days - the cooled water was so refreshing! The hosts were warm and friendly and it was nice to see their dogs being taken out to the fields each day. Being near Stansteds flight path was actually quite fun - watching the planes was a bit of a distraction. Wed happily recommend this place!"

"Our stay at Goddard Mead was truly lovely. The cottage had everything we needed and the walks right outside were a real bonus. The hosts made us feel so welcome, really warm and friendly people!"

"We had a really lovely stay at this cottage, tucked away on a working farm but still so private. Robert and Sharon are genuinely charming hosts. The place itself is surprisingly spacious, with a well-equipped kitchen and a comfy bed that we didnt want to leave. The gardens perfect for dogs, totally secluded and with nice outdoor furniture. We enjoyed exploring the nearby walks and tried a few restaurants in Thaxted-The Star and The Maypole were great and The Swan isnt too bad either. Highly recommend!"
