Very cozy. Booked it for our extended family (parents and two teenage daughters) who came to see us in Wivenhoe. They loved the property and found it very comfortable.

Room and bathroom were larger than expected and we loved it since we had our adult son who slept on a cot in the room with us. Loved the balcony and the views. Easy parking. Easy check-in.

Exchanged room in St Nicholas for The George as the lift at St Nicholas broke down upon my arrival and I had to climb 3 storeys to reach my room. My wife is a kidney transplanted patient and has angiopasty done on her.

I really appreciated being able to bring a take away in, have the plates etc. provided whilst we relax and have a few drinks in the bar. It’s a shame you don’t do dinners but 10/10 for being superstars and allowing people to bring food in for dinner. Breakfast was 1st class, well done chef!! We have just returned home to NZ. We will definitely stay with you again.

    I think the village, itself is charming and being so small,...

    I think the village, itself is charming and being so small, is easy to get around on foot. Unfortunately there is not much parking but as it was never intended for cars - that's understandable. One negative point was the pub on the quay, the Rose and Crown. Great location but the service was poor. They said they were really busy as they had a lot of customers. Being August, a Sunday, and holiday season - that's to be expected and not an excuse. We waited over an hour and other people who arrived after us, got served first. Even if their food was easier to make - it's not a good look. Also, the food was expensive and not that great. I would recommend the Yachtsman in Brightlingsea as a much better eating alternative.

    Our visit was too short to explore the local history, explore far on foot, or make use of the ferry, but we enjoyed the variety of places to eat and drink, in a very small place. During our short stay, we enjoyed Indian and pub food, along with a coffee shop, all within a very short walk of our accommodation.
