It certainly lived up to it's star ratings in all categories! What a wonderful place to stay with delightful hosts, including our "greeter" Molly. We travel a lot and like to stay at B&B's. Without a doubt this has to be the best we have ever stayed in. We needed a place to stay for 9 days in central Essex... More

It really is impossible to fault this lovely little B&B. We paid £30 per person per night which included breakfasts which would shame most deluxe hotels. Absolutely gorgeous property, very discrete yet friendly owners. I have stayed in very expensive hotels with no difference in quality, just a huge difference in price. My only issue is that they do get... More

My husband and I travelled from Edinburgh to attend a family party in the area and wanted to find a small and personal bed & breakfast. Knowing we would be returning for the party fairly late on the Saturday night we did not want to disturb other residents or owners. After some searching on the internet we found The Cottage... More

My partner has stayed at the cottage on a number of occasions and always has great things to say. Last night I stayed there too and I have time say it exceeded my high expectations of it! The place is just beautiful.

I stayed at the cottage for a few days when in Chelmsford for business. The guest suite was very clean and tidy fully equipped with everything you could possibly need (even an iron and ironing board!) with the most comfortable bed I have ever slept in. The breakfast was even better and Jayne, the host, was very willing to help... More

Just returned from a wonderful weekend at The Cottage. Used it to escape London for a few days. Was especially great to have our own lounge. Lovely walk from the front door with a borrowed OS map. Top notch pub for food 2 mins drive away. Most comfortable bed I've ever slept in! Super friendly hosts cooked an amazing breakfast... More

What a wonderful B&B. We read the reviews on here and were not disappointed. Jayne, Tim and Molly the Labrador made us very welcome. The cottage is very self contained and has it’s own entrance. It is decorated to a high standard, everything is clean and sparkling. Fresh soft towels, and lots of little extras both in the bathroom and... More

A superb location backed up by equally superb accommodation and hosts. Having read other reviews we were not disappointed with the facilities, views and the hearty breakfasts - sourced from local and home grown produce. The little extra things such as tea on arrival, home made biscuits (yummy) and the warm welcome just made our stay such a special and... More

Our second visit has not disappointed. This little B&B is extra special because you get a lot for your money. Yes, a spotlessly clean and very comfortable bedroom and a bathroom with shiny, gleaming everything and luxurious towels and toilettries, yes, a wonderful freshly cooked breakfast, yes charming and accommodating hosts and yes, the most picture perfect and convenient location....
