Loved the location. We found some really good things to do with the children that wasn’t to far away or to expensive. and also loved the campsite. Caravan is lovely. And in the perfect place in the site.

Very comfortable B&B, super friendly hosts and the whole place was spotless. We only stayed one night as we needed somewhere close to Stansted Airport for an early flight. Would definitely recommend Little Bullocks Farm as a base to explore East Anglia, super quiet and comfortable, too!

This holiday-flat is, as stated in the description, located on the first floor of a house on a main road, very small but every corner is taken advantage of so that everything could be found easily and nothing was missing. It was extremely clean, tastefully furnished and the heating could be regulated easily and worked well. The flat itself is not facing the main-road but the back and the park, which makes it much quieter than expected. The bed is very comfortable in a bedroom with two windows, the bathroom very light in white/black with a big shower, fluffy towels and a window. The tiny kitchen contains everything you could wish for and the welcome basket with biscuits/crisps/popcorn plus drinks and milk in the fridge makes it great even if you arrive late at night. The location could not be better....from the entrance door only steps to the entrance of the Promenade Park, 2 minutes away from The Hythe with the old barges on the banks of the river Chelmer, two houses next to the cute Maldon Museum in the Park, through the park you can get to the Salt Marshes Path or Coastal Path / Blackwater within minutes. The Mill Road leads directly onto High Street with many restaurants, shops and places of historical interest. Information about that and activities can be picked up at the tourist information center - very helpful!

No breakfast offered in this location but complimentary breakfast cereal bars and tea bags etc provided. Lovely beamed decent sized room, self controlled heating/Aircon unit, comfortable bed, good bathroom (extractor fan broken). Food in restaurant/pub very good, large variety - reasonable price for the quality and quantity but not cheap. Plenty of garden seating. Location very close to town and river walk. I would recommend this Inn.

Great location, near to where we needed to be. Very comfortable and well equipped. Plenty of parking. All you could possible need was in the kitchen, had a very homely feel. Very clean throughout. Rang before hand to ask about recommendations for Taxi and they were very helpful in providing a couple of firms. Happi Cabs were brilliant and easy to deal with.
