What our customers say about their holidays
Elaine - Verified booking
Beautifully appointed property, tastefully decorated and very comfortable.
We all found our beds really soft and comfortable - although a sheet had been placed between the duvet and bottom sheet, which on 3 of the beds was very crumpled up and twisted and meant having to re-make the bed. The dining chairs were the most comfortable I've ever known and meant sitting over long luxurious meals was a dream. We felt the kitchen could have been better stocked with essential equipment - there was no whisk, so whipping cream and eggs with just a fork was rather laborious! There was no ice cube making tray/container so we just filled up plastic boxes with water and once frozen, had to smash it up! There were only 6 mugs, no cups so meant having to run bowls of washing up water or putting the dishwasher on every time we had hot drinks was a bit of a waste of water! Ideally I'd recommend at least 12 to 18 mugs to allow for enough hot drinks throughout the day! When we arrived and began hunting for mugs, we found them in the dishwasher along with some other crockery, which hadn't been emptied! On the whole, we had a wonderful weekend and the weather enabled us to enjoy sitting out in the lovely garden - although, it would have been nice to have some seat cushions as the wooden chairs were very hard and a bit worn/mossy and a parasol would have been useful. The only entrance to the property had a very high step, which a couple of us less fit ladies found quite a struggle to climb up - a smaller step outside the door would make it safer and easier. Having ground floor bedroom and shower room and being so spacious inside, makes the property ideal for a wheelchair user, if only the entrance could be re-jigged - just a thought for the future as it is so difficult to find suitable properties for the physically challenged! A lovely holiday cottage and we would go back if the entrance was easier!

A Hidden Gem â Tranquil, Romantic, and Perfect for Nature LoversWeâve just returned from our third stay on the Belchamp Hall estate, this time in the beautiful Mill House, and weâre already planning to go back. Nestled at the end of a private road in a serene and secluded setting with a pond and a wonderful view across countryside, the home offers complete peace and quiet â the perfect escape from the hustle of daily life.We personally met the owners who made us feel very welcome and advised us not to hesitate to contact them if we needed anything. The property is immaculately maintained and tastefully decorated, with every comfort thoughtfully provided. They also left a very generous welcome pack, a basket full of quality foodstuffs including delicious bread, croissants, breakfast cereal, butter, milk, as well as coffee (including Nespresso pods), tea, etc. - more than enough to avoid a trip to the supermarket as soon as you arrive. Another generous gesture is that you can also help yourselves to extra firewood for the wood stove - if you use it - at no extra cost.What makes it truly unforgettable, though, is the romantic ambiance and stunning natural surroundings. The estate offers walking trails right from the doorstep â we took our daughterâs dog for walks through woodland, open fields and along tranquil streams - she loved it!Far from any traffic or city lights, itâs rare to find a place that feels so private, yet so welcoming.If you're looking for a romantic retreat where you can truly unwind, reconnect, and enjoy the beauty of nature, this is it. Absolutely idyllic â we canât recommend it highly enough.

A lovely well-equipped cottage, clean and comfortable.
The garden is nice and secure for dogs. Molly loved it. The owner provided a very nice welcome basket plus basics like tea, coffee and milk - great after queues in the Friday traffic. The location is good although entering and leaving the driveway can be a bit scary because itâs on a bend with some traffic exceeding the speed limit. There is a good local butcher in Ramsey village, where they also have homemade cakes and a fish counter at weekends.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Lodge Cottage, which is exceptionally furnished with all top quality fixtures and fittings.
The garden is secure and excellent for dogs with walks right opposite the cottage, approximately 2 miles to the beach. Views of the sea can be seen from some windows in the cottage. Little Oakley has a small convenience store and is within a short drive into Harwich. Overall we highly recommend staying at Lodge Cottage, it really is a fantastic property, exceptionally clean and exudes luxury. We hope to stay here again.

We had a fabulous stay in this comfortable caravan; the host was really helpful.
We had a fishing/ boating lake and an orchard on the grounds in large expansive fields. The kids really enjoyed picking apples, pears and plums! Very close to beaches as well. Thanks again for such a lovely holiday- might just book again next year!
