“Outstanding hospitality, paired with a quaint yet modern building.”

Reviewed 22 November 2012

We stayed just one night and arrived after dark, but had time until noon the next day. After we received a comprehensive intro and after settling down, we tried out the Lion & Lamb pub, also run by the proprietors Linda and Mike. Mike drove us to the pub and back at our convenience. Upon our return we tried out... More

“Nice B&B, convenient location, but poor communication on website and in person”

Reviewed 5 November 2012

We stayed at The White House in mid October 2012 as we were going to a wedding nearby. The room was great- a good size and clean, though the shower was on the cramped side. The B&B let themselves down on their confusing messaging (on their website, by phone and in person), however. We booked our stay through the White... More

Dear Guest - Sorry for the misunderstanding of the expression "Room Only" which I and throughout the trade means no meals provided. I am sorry if you were misinformed by the staff but maybe you didnt mention at the time that you had chosen the £50 Room Only offer rather than the usual rate of £80.00 bed and breakfast. I... More

“back to the White House - an excellent B&B”

Reviewed 4 November 2012

First stayed at the white house last year and again this weekend (Nov 2012). Can't fault this B&B, really clean with lots of little extras - robes, tea coffee and bisuits, luxury bathroom. Comfortable room, fresh linen and white fluffy towels, warm welcome and excellent english breakfast. If you need to be in takeley or stanstead then I recommend this... More

“bad experience”

Reviewed 28 October 2012

We stayed for one night, in June, prior to our holiday flight. On arrival we rang the owner, they also have a pub nearby, and he came and showed us our rooms and the house. We were leaving at 07.45am the next morning and were expecting a nice cooked breakfast before our journey so were disappointed when he said there... More

Dear Guest - I am sorry that you were not completely satisfied with your stay with us back in June and sorry that it has taken you so long to inform us of your "bad experience". We clearly state on our website and the literature in the rooms plus I would have informed you on your arrival that we serve... More

“Forget Airport hotels, this place is what service is all about!”

Reviewed 29 April 2012

Stayed here in April 2012 on the way to Denmark mid week. I have always stayed in airport hotels before, and took a chance on a B & B. What a good choice, this place is really beautiful, rooms are first class, and I felt like we were in a really high class hotel. But beyond this, the service was... More

“simply incredible”

Reviewed 1 April 2012

A wonderful level of service totally beyond all norm. Better breakfast and towels, just to mention a few details, than in top hotels. Like staying with your best friends on such a day that they for some reason want to be extra nice to you. Very convenient to Stansted airport, a 9 GBP taxi ride. This is quite rural though... More

“One of the best!”

Reviewed 19 February 2012 via mobile

Really lovely listed property - traditional exterior, contemporary interior. The White House can be recommended on all counts - comfortable, welcoming, peaceful and not forgetting their excellent breakfasts. Whether you are just passing through Takeley or wanting to stay longer, this B&B is for you - but you may never want to leave!
