We had a really lovely stay! Sharon and Robert made us feel so welcome, which was much appreciated. The place was spotlessly clean, super cosy and perfect for Archie with good security. The location was just right, with lots of nice walks around and charming villages like Thaxted nearby. Honestly, it felt like a proper getaway and we left feeling totally recharged. Definitely recommend for a relaxing break!
We had an amazing stay at this cosy cottage! The place was spotless and had everything we needed. Our dogs loved the nearby walks and it was lovely meeting all the farm animals, especially Penelope the pig - shes a proper character. The host was super friendly and quick to reply. Well definitely return, such good value! Highly recommend.
Great place overall, very clean and well-equipped. The hot tub was definitely a highlight for us!
We really enjoyed our stay at this lovely spot. The location is stunning and quite private, perfect for a peaceful getaway. The owners were super friendly and always there if we needed anything, but it still felt secluded. The hot tub was a real highlight after a long day cycling. One thing to note, though, is that the cottage is right under Stansteds flight path, so aircraft noise is quite noticeable. It didnt bother us much after a while, but for light sleepers, it might be worth considering. Overall, a fab place!
Really enjoyed our stay here, the place was cosy and perfect for a relaxing weekend away. Definitely coming back!
We absolutely loved this place! The rural setting was peaceful and scenic and the hot tub really made it feel special. Perfect spot for relaxing countryside walks too!

We had a lovely stay at this peaceful spot. Sharon and Robert really go above and beyond to make sure everythings just right. Even though its our second visit, were already planning to come back soon!
We loved how peaceful and spotless the place was. The hosts were super friendly and helpful. The hot tub was a real highlight, perfect for relaxing!
We spent a week at this charming place from 15 to 22 July with our two little dachshunds, who absolutely loved it! They made some new friends in the lovely village of Thaxted, which was a real highlight. The cottage itself is adorable, especially the hot tub-perfect for those scorching days when the water was cooled for a refreshing dip. The hosts were really friendly and welcoming and we enjoyed watching the planes come in since its close to Stansteds flight path. All in all, a great stay wed happily recommend!
We had a lovely stay at this cosy cottage. Perfect for a peaceful escape, though the airport noise at night is noticeable. The hot tub was definitely a highlight!
Spacious and spotless, really impressed with it!
The caravan was really roomy and comfortable, definitely worth the price, we had a great stay!
We really needed a dog walking break and found this place just perfect. Lovely quality accommodation, with pubs and eateries within a short walk. Miles of fields for off-road adventures-our dog loved it, didnt want to leave!
We just got back from a four-night stay at this cosy cottage and honestly, we had a great time. The owners are really friendly but not overbearing, so you feel welcome but free to relax. The fenced garden was perfect for our dog to run around safely. The place was fully equipped with everything we needed and the hot tub was just fantastic! We definitely want to come back and have already told our friends about it. Thanks for a lovely break!
We needed a peaceful break for our dog and this place was just ideal. Beautiful countryside, lovely pubs nearby and plenty of outdoor space. Honestly, our dog didnt want to leave at all-loved every minute!
We had such a great weekend at this place! Everything we hoped for was there and we really enjoyed staying. The garden was perfect for our dogs and they went wild for the underfloor heating. Luna was wagging her tail so much she hurt it, but honestly, it just shows how much she loved it. Well definitely return!
We had such a lovely weekend here, it really ticked all the boxes for us. The underfloor heating was a hit with our dogs-they had a blast in the garden. Luna even wagged her tail so much she strained it, but the vet said its from all the excitement! Were definitely planning to return soon. Great place, really enjoyed it!
We found the place really suited our needs. I brought along some extra throws because the dogs love lounging on the furniture and it kept everything nice and cosy. The space was generous and there was plenty of choice on the TV. Returning from the beach to a warm, comfy house was just perfect and the beach itself is just a five-minute walk - so handy!
Absolutely loved it! The owners really nailed it - super relaxing stay. Were already telling friends to check it out!
Absolutely loved our time at Goddards Mead! The cottage was perfect, comfy and well-equipped. Well definitely return soon!
Really enjoyed our stay, highly recommend.
We stayed at this lovely cottage nestled on a working farm and honestly, it felt surprisingly private. The owners, Robert and Sharon, are such warm, friendly folks and made us feel right at home. The place itself is really spacious, with a well-equipped kitchen and a comfy bed that we didnt want to leave. The garden is perfect for dogs-completely secluded and furnished nicely. Plus, there are loads of walks nearby and Thaxteds eateries like The Star and The Maypole are worth a visit. Wed definitely recommend it!
We needed a dog-friendly getaway and it was just what we hoped for! The place had great quality, with lovely pubs nearby and endless fields for walks. The dog loved it - wouldnt get in the car to leave!
We spent a week here in July with our two little mini daschunds and it was such a lovely break! The cottage itself is charming and the hot tub was a real treat, especially with the scorching weather - the cooled water felt so refreshing. The hosts were genuinely welcoming and friendly, which made us feel right at home. Watching the planes land near Stansted was surprisingly interesting too. The village of Thaxted is adorable and the dogs had a great time making new friends. Overall, wed definitely recommend it for a relaxing getaway!
The owners were genuinely lovely and went above and beyond when the storm knocked out the power. The place was spotless, super cosy and our dog loved the enclosed garden. The hot tub was a real bonus too!
We had such a lovely weekend stay! The place was perfect for what we needed and were already planning to return. Our dogs couldnt get enough of the underfloor heating and the garden - Luna even wagged her tail so much she strained it! Honestly, happy pups, happy us. Definitely recommend this spot for a cosy getaway!
We stayed at Goddard's Mead recently and really enjoyed it. Rob and Sharon put a lot of effort into restoring the historic building and their warm welcome made us feel right at home, along with Bonnie. The place has everything you need for a relaxing visit. It's in a lovely part of Essex, perfect for exploring Thaxted and nearby villages. Wed definitely recommend taking some time to wander around and soak up the history and beautiful architecture!

Nice clean chalet /flat, reception staff was brilliant sorted a problem immediately. Less than 5 minutes to the beach. Excellent value
Last minute holiday, caravan was very clean and well equipped
We had a great time this weekend. The van was clean, modern and close to the beach. The age range of the area is 45-65 but everyone is friendly.
The caravan was excellent, lovely and clean. The staff were wonderfully friendly and helpful. We had a great week with friends and enjoyed all the facilities that are only a stones throw from the caravan site. The pub on site was a nice little place for a quick pint. All in all i would definitely recommend this caravan park.
had a great time the caravan was a new one every thing was spotless, the staff was very helpful ,the camp is nice & well kept/will be booking again soon.
Had an amazing holiday here, the beach was a couple of minutes away which was really great for the dog walks and amusements was just down the road which was great for the kids. The caravan was really nice and the people were really friendly. definitely go back again.
