Really enjoyed our stay at Goddards Mead. The cottage was superb, cosy and well-equipped. We’ll definitely return soon!

Such a tranquil spot, the Jacuzzi really made our stay special!

We had a lovely stay at this place. The house was super well equipped and kept us really warm, which was perfect given the rainy December weather. The bath was fantastic and the shower was nicely big too. Even though it’s near a flight path, it didn’t bother us at all-no noise issues. Perfect spot if you’ve got dogs that dislike fireworks, since it’s in the middle of nowhere. Thanks a lot!

Absolutely loved staying here! The cottage was charming, cosy, with a lovely log burner and hot tub. The hosts were really friendly too. Hope to come back soon!

This place is really lovely! It’s nicely tucked away, so super peaceful, but still close enough to grab a few essentials. The hot tub is a highlight and the underfloor heating in the bathroom is a nice touch. Rob, Sharon and Bonnie are genuinely lovely hosts. Can’t wait to return!

We had such a lovely stay at Goddard's Mead! Rob and Sharon really put a lot of effort into beautifully restoring this historic building and their warm welcome made us feel right at home. Bonnie was adorable too! The location’s perfect for exploring Essex’s charming villages and historic sites, which we highly recommend. It’s a peaceful spot with everything you need for a comfy break. Definitely worth a visit if you’re nearby!

We had a really lovely week at this place from July 15th to 22nd with our two mini dachshunds. They absolutely loved it, making friends around the village of Thaxted. The cottage itself is charming and cosy and the highlight was definitely the hot tub - perfect for the hot weather, cooling down nicely. The hosts were super friendly and made us feel really welcome, even taking their dogs out to the fields daily. It’s close to Stansted, so you might hear the planes, but honestly, watching them land was quite enjoyable. We’d happily recommend it!

Looking forward to returning soon!

We had a fantastic stay! The cottage was spotless and had everything we needed, plus loads of lovely walks just outside.

We had a really lovely stay at this good place! The location is so peaceful and private, perfect for a relaxing break. The hosts were genuinely friendly and always ready to help if needed, but they didn’t intrude on our privacy at all. The hot tub was definitely a highlight after a long day of cycling - absolute bliss! One thing to keep in mind is that the cottage is right under Stansted’s flight path, so there’s quite a bit of aircraft noise. It didn’t ruin our trip, but it might bother sensitive sleepers.

We just got back from a lovely week at Goddards Mead. The cottage has everything you could think of and more. The hosts are super friendly and welcoming, making us feel right at home. Despite being on a working farm, it’s so peaceful and relaxing!

We just got back from a really nice four-night stay at this cottage. The owners are super friendly and helpful, but they’re not at all intrusive, which was perfect. The big fenced garden was great for our dog to run around freely. The place had everything we needed - fully equipped and comfy. We even enjoyed a BBQ one evening. The hot tub was fantastic! We’re already planning to come back and have recommended it to friends. Thanks for a lovely break!

This site was in a great location for a relaxing holiday in Scotland. The hosts were very welcoming and the caravan was spotless.

The site is so peaceful and very relaxing. A little out the way but we liked being away from everything.

Had a great time and owner was lovely, very peaceful break away ?

A lovely quiet site with beautiful views. The caravan was clean and spacious and had a lovely outside seating area. The staff on site were very helpful and gave us a call before we arrived. There was a lovely walk alongside the river just a couple of minutes from the site. We are looking forward to returning next year!

We had a lovely stay, the owner- Carol was very helpful and looking into every detail to make us feel comfortable. We had a lovely time, going for walks in the surrounding areas, taking the car for between 7 to 60 minutes to go to "must see" places nearby. Also, as the holiday park is not too big, we were private and quiet. The only thing that I would comment on is the noise from the train passing from time to time, but overall this did not disturb much.

Great wee place ?
