The lodge was a total mess when we arrived-dirty towels on the floor and used beds. Disgraceful!

The place was missing a travel cot and there weren’t enough cleaning or bathroom products. Small touches would really help.

We really enjoyed our stay at the lodge! The bedrooms were spacious and comfy and the living area felt plenty big enough for everyone. The shower was definitely a highlight-possibly the best we've come across in ages. Only hitch was one door key was missing, but the site manager sorted it quickly. We’d definitely come back!

We had such a lovely weekend staying here! The place was perfect for what we needed and we really enjoyed ourselves. Our pups were in heaven with the underfloor heating and the garden kept them entertained for hours. Luna especially was wagging her tail so much she strained it - the vet said she was just that happy! We’ll definitely be coming back.

We stayed at this lovely cottage and loved how peaceful it was, away from the busy areas. The hot tub was a real treat and the owners were super helpful without being intrusive. They've got it just right!

This place is a real gem. The cottage is spotless and well kitted out, making it a comfy stay. We loved the easy access to dog walks right outside and meeting the farm animals, especially Penelope the pig! The host was super friendly and quick to reply. Perfect getaway for us and our pup. We’ll be back for sure, such good value!

We had a really lovely stay at this good place. The setting is so peaceful and private, perfect for relaxing away from the hustle. The owners were super friendly and always available if we needed anything, but they didn’t intrude on the quiet. The hot tub was a real treat after cycling all day! Just a heads up, the cottage is right under Stansted’s flight path, so there’s quite a bit of aircraft noise. It didn’t bother us much after a while, but if you’re sensitive to noise, it’s worth knowing. Overall, a great place for a peaceful break!

We had a lovely stay at this charming cottage, tucked away on a working farm but still very private. The owners, Robert and Sharon, are genuinely lovely and made us feel so welcome. The place itself is really spacious with well-equipped kitchens and a comfy bed that we loved after long walks. The garden is perfect for dogs-completely secluded and nicely furnished. There are plenty of walking routes nearby and Thaxted’s restaurants, like The Star and The Maypole, are worth a visit. We’d definitely recommend it!
Emma
We had a lovely stay! Sharon and Robert made us feel really welcome, which was lovely. The place had everything we needed, was spotless, comfy and safe for our dog Archie. The location was perfect for exploring, with lots of walks around and nearby villages like Thaxted that are charming. We definitely left feeling refreshed and relaxed after a week away. Would recommend for a peaceful break!

We spent a week here in July with our two little dachshunds and honestly, it was lovely! The cottage itself is charming and the hot tub was a real treat-especially during the heatwave, it was so refreshing. The hosts made us feel really welcome and it was nice to see their horses being taken out daily. Being on the Stansted flight path was surprisingly interesting; we enjoyed watching the planes come in. The village of Thaxted is adorable, perfect for a peaceful getaway. We’d definitely recommend this place for a relaxing break!
Emma

We stayed at this charming little cottage recently and honestly, it had everything we needed-no need to pack much at all. The owners, Sharon and Rob, really thought of everything, from the helpful welcome pack to the little extras for our dogs. The enclosed garden was perfect for the pups and the hot tub was a lovely touch after a day out. Communication was quick and friendly, which made everything so smooth. We had a fantastic break and would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a cosy getaway!

We just got back from a lovely week at Goddards Mead. The cottage is super well stocked with everything you could possibly want. The hosts are really friendly and welcoming and even though it’s on a working farm, it feels like a peaceful retreat. Great stay!

We just got back from a really nice four-night stay at this cottage. The owners are super friendly but 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, including a fully equipped kitchen. We even enjoyed the hot tub! Definitely planning to come back and already told our friends about it. Thanks for a lovely break!

We had such a lovely stay! The hosts were genuinely friendly and went out of their way to help us with everything. The cottage itself is adorable, with its charming half-timbered look and a really powerful shower that was much appreciated after long walks. The cosy kitchen and comfy bed made it feel like a home away from home. Parking right next to the cottage was a real bonus and the place was spotless. Perfect for exploring Thaxted and the surrounding fields. We’ll definitely be back!
