Thatched Cottage in the countryside
Great location and Paul was a very helpful and communicative host, even helping one of our guests recover some belongings they had left behind. Thank you very much, Emily

The White Cottage Romantic Riverside Retreat
Sally was an incredible host we didn’t have to ask any questions because of the in depth intro! Bo the cat was a delight and such a character (definitely the king of the land) The hot tub made the experience with great surrounding lights & bluetooth. We will 100% be back.

4 Bed in Saffron Walden (85662)
The house was wonderful for our family vacation. The house is very spacious, beds are super comfy, kitchen is well appointed, very clean bathrooms. The fireplaces add to the atmosphere and we enjoyed lounging around in front of the fireplaces both in the dining and living areas. We also made good use of the log fired hot tub. The surroundings are idyllic and peaceful. Fields as far as the eye can see. Oh and the Shetland ponies are sooo friendly and cute. They add to the feel of being away from the rush of urban life and relaxing in the country side. You do need to pack your soap and shampoo.

Hedgehog Cottage: Cosy Countryside Escape
Had a lovely time with my girlfriend at the Hedgehog Cottage. Perfect place to get away from it all and unwind. Hollie was fab with responding quickly and sorting out any issues we had. Would definitely recommend, we even had to extend our stay because we didn't want to leave! Thank you so much for you hospitality :)

Violet Corner at Footpath Cottages, Reynolds Farm
A tranquil and peaceful little spot perfect for a couples getaway. We did some hiking up towards the coastline and took a trip to the lovely Canterbury City which is a short drive away. Overall a great weekend away and highly recommended.

Toppesfield Hall Cottage: Hot Tub/Fire Pit/Games R
Amanda’s cottage is beautiful and is in a great location. The surroundings are peaceful, and this is a great destination for a relaxing weekend away. Amanda is very accommodating as a host and was always very prompt with responses to queries. We were provided with a lovely welcome basket which was a nice treat to receive on arrival. Check in and check out was very straight forward and instructions for this were clear. The hot tub and outdoor area is so nice and relaxing, with a lovely view of the countryside. The beds were very comfortable and we all slept with ease. I would definitely recommend staying here for a wholesome weekend away in the countryside.

Coastal 2-Bedroom Cottage w/ Hot Tub & Log Burner
What a lovely little cottage with a beautiful view!! We went with our 1 year old twins for a mini moon and had the best time. Rowland was a great host, he sent clear instructions on check in / tide times etc, good communication and gave lots of recommendations for local places to eat / drink etc This is located next to a pub with really good food and an amazing pizza place we ate in along with lots of other good fish restaurants with a short walk to the high street. West mersea is small but with everything you need and relaxing vibe. We took the kids in Colchester one day to a pool and isn’t too far away. We would 100% recommend and would love to visit again. Thank you!!

Seabird Cottage
Nice little house. Pleasant decor. Excellent modern kitchen. 4 minutes walk to Whitstable high street and the seafront, with lots of Cafes, Bars and restaurants. It is probably more suited to adults than kids.

Beautiful Cottage In The Heart Of Whitstable.
We had such a lovely weekend at Dahlias place. The house has everything we needed, beds are comfortable and the location is great, right next to all the amenities and a stone’s throw from the harbour. Would highly recommend!

Pebble Cottage - near Whitstable beach
Pebble cottage was exactly as described. We really enjoyed our stay in Whitstable. The cottage was clean. The beds were comfortable and the kitchen very well equipped. Janet was a fantastic host, kept us informed and great communication all the way through Thank you very much for our stay in your lovely cottage.

Quirky 16th century cottage in Wattisham Suffolk
We loved this cottage. It was very cosy and as a history lover, very fascinating. Beautiful inglenook fireplace with a log burner. The enclosed garden was perfect for our dog. Easy reach to lots of Suffolk attractions but the cottage was peaceful and secluded. Comfy beds, kitchen fitted with everything we needed to cook there. This cottage wouldn’t be suitable if you have mobility issues due to low doorways in places, sloping floors and narrow staircase but it was perfect for us and we knew in advance what to expect. We had a great stay and it even snowed one evening which was very picture perfect. Thank you, we loved it!!

*Manningtree Beach - 17th century cottage*
Firstly Hannah was very personable and very prompt with her answers to any questions I had. The place was beautiful and spotlessly clean. Great care had been taken to make my stay as enjoyable as possible. I would highly recommend staying at this residence and Hannah is an amazing host.

W/E Reduction! Cozy cute Cottage!
Everything was great and as described with a perfect location close to the sea front. Stephen was friendly and made us feel welcome upon arrival so it was easy to settle in and relax. A well deserved five stars!

Romantic or Family Rural Bliss
Chisholm’s was absolutely gorgeous, filled with character and such a lovely place for a quiet getaway. The grounds are so beautiful and there is a very cute and friendly doggo around to spot too. The property itself is lovely, very well presented and cozy- a lot of thought has obviously gone into how to make things lovely for guests. Within short driving distance of places like Dedham, Manningtree and Mistley so we also visited some excellent restaurants. Polly herself is super friendly and nice, very responsive to messages and it was overall a lovely experience.

Beautiful Period Fisherman's Cottage

Crisply stylish retreat - Orchard Coach House
My family and I had a lovely stay at the Coach House. The property is beautifully designed and the decor is very stylish. The house was very clean throughout and we had everything we needed for our stay. Charlie was very quick in replying with any queries that we had throughout our stay also. We thought the paintings throughout the house were a lovely touch to the property also. Would recommend to anyone staying in the area.

We very much enjoyed our stay. Lovely, clean and welcoming. Set in a beautiful location and the accommodation has been finished to a high standard. Beds are super comfy, WiFi and heating were amazing and everything we needed was available. Only problem we should have booked 4 nights ;)

Country Cottage Self Catering Accommodation
Excellent host and property in a handy location for Cambridge. The property is well placed if you are visiting Papworth or Addenbrookes - as Carol recommended, just ensure you allow sufficient travelling time if you have an early appointment.
