Beechwood Park

We loved how peaceful it was. Just what we were looking for. The lodge was lovely as well - clean and spacious.

We needed a quick escape for our dog walk and this place was just perfect. Lovely quality stay, with pubs and eateries nearby and endless fields for off-road adventures. The dog didn’t want to leave at all!

The cottage was lovely and perfect for us, nestled away from busy areas. The hot tub was a real treat! Owners were super helpful but never intrusive. We loved it!

We had a fantastic stay at this cosy cottage! The place was super well-kept and had everything we needed. The nearby walks were perfect for the dogs and meeting Penelope the pig was a real highlight. The host was incredibly friendly and easy to communicate with. Definitely coming back - such great value! Highly recommend!

We had a lovely stay! Sharon and Robert made us feel really at home, which was lovely. The place was spotless, comfy and perfect for Archie’s safety. The location was just right - loads of great walks nearby and Thaxted and the surrounding villages are charming. We definitely left feeling refreshed after a restful week. All in all, a really enjoyable break and we’d happily come back again!

We just got back from a fantastic week at Goddards Mead. The place is super well-equipped - everything you could think of is there. The hosts are genuinely friendly and welcoming. Despite being on a working farm, it feels like a peaceful retreat. Loved it!

Absolutely loved our stay at Goddards Mead! The cottage was perfect - cosy, clean and well-equipped. We’ll definitely return soon.

We had a fantastic stay! The place was spotless, really comfy and the hot tub was a highlight.

We had a fantastic weekend here! Everything we hoped for and more. The underfloor heating was a hit with our dogs, especially Luna, who was wagging her tail non-stop and even strained it! The garden was perfect for them to run around. We’re already planning to come back soon. Truly a great stay for both us and the pups!

We had a cracking time at this lovely little cottage, tucked away on a working farm but still super private. Robert and Sharon are such lovely hosts and made us feel really welcome. The place is spacious and well-equipped, especially the kitchen and bathroom, which was a bonus. The bed was so comfy, we didn’t want to leave! The garden is perfect for dogs, really secluded and furnished nicely. Plenty of walks nearby and Thaxted has some great restaurants like The Star and The Maypole. We’d definitely recommend it!

We had such a lovely stay here! The setting is truly beautiful and private, perfect for relaxing. The hosts were super friendly and always available if we needed anything, but you still get that nice sense of seclusion. The hot tub was a real treat after a long day cycling around. One thing to note, the cottage is right under Stansted’s flight path, so there’s quite a bit of aircraft noise. It took us a couple of hours to get used to it, but didn’t ruin our trip at all. Overall, a great find!

We just got back from a really nice four-night stay at this cottage and honestly, we had a great time. The owners are super friendly but not clingy, which was perfect. The garden is big and fully fenced, so our dog was free to run around without worries. The cottage had everything we needed, including a nice hot tub that we loved. We even used the BBQ one evening. Definitely planning to come back and already told friends about it. Thanks for a lovely break!

Really enjoyed our stay, the place had everything needed!

We had an absolutely lovely stay at the cottage. The place was spotless and really well equipped, making it super comfortable. The hot tub was a real highlight and the peaceful surroundings were perfect for unwinding. Plenty of walks nearby too. Highly recommend!

We stayed at this place during a rainy December and honestly, it’s a gem. The house is super well equipped and kept us cosy all weekend. The bath is perfect for relaxing after a long day and the shower is really spacious. The location is ideal for dogs - no fireworks worries here. And despite being near a flight path, it was totally peaceful. Thanks a lot!

We spent a week here with our two little dachshunds and had such a lovely time. The village of Thaxted is charming and our dogs loved making new friends. The cottage itself is really cosy and the hot tub was a real treat-especially during the scorching weather, as it cooled the water making it super refreshing. The hosts were incredibly friendly and made us feel welcome. We also enjoyed watching the planes land from the nearby flight path-added a bit of excitement! Definitely a place we’d come back to. Highly recommend!

We had a really lovely stay at the cottage. The location was perfect for us, peaceful and away from busy areas. The hot tub was fantastic too! Owners were friendly but not intrusive, they really got it just right!

Really enjoyed our stay here! The place was super peaceful and spotless. Hosts couldn't have been nicer. The hot tub was the highlight for us!

We had a lovely time at this peaceful spot. Sharon and Robert really go the extra mile to make sure everything's just right. Though it’s our second visit, we’re already planning to come back again!

We had such a lovely stay at this charming cottage. It really is a little gem-so well equipped, we barely needed to bring anything! The welcome pack was full of useful info and menus, which made things so easy. The owners, Sharon and Rob, were quick to respond if we had questions, which was appreciated. Our dogs loved the enclosed garden and the hot tub was absolutely fantastic. Thanks for the thoughtful extras for us and our pups. It was a perfect relaxing getaway!

We stayed in two lodges and honestly, only one was decent. The other one (no.9) was in pretty poor shape and needed a lot of fixing up. The outside decking was rotten and a real health hazard. We reported the lack of hot water, but it never got fixed. The kitchen floor near the cooker was rotten, which was quite concerning. There was a disgusting towel on the floor that looked like it had been excrement and we also found a facemask behind one of the bedroom doors - lovely. One of the dining chairs was broken and could’ve collapsed if someone sat on it. None of the blinds worked, so they stayed shut all the time and cobwebs were visible in every corner. Utensils were lacking too - no scissors or microwavable bowls. The small fridge/freezer in no.9 was barely big enough for 6 people. Outside, the wooden structures just needed a good clean - covered in cobwebs and dirt. If you get a new lodge, then it’s fine - but otherwise, not great!

Really enjoyed our weekend here, it’s perfect for a peaceful anniversary getaway. Would definitely return!

Really enjoyed the stay, would return.

Really enjoyed our stay, the lodge was spotless and comfy. Just the tap needs fixing!

The place has a really chill vibe, perfect for relaxing visits.

Great stay overall, just a few issues with cleanliness and shower.

Really enjoyed our stay, the place was peaceful and comfortable.

Overall, a lovely stay with just a small issue-en suite door kept coming loose, but everything else was great.
