"Nothing to fault. A lovely house."

"Lovely little cozy cabin with quirky bed - if you have mobility problems this might be a slight issue as it is high but once in really comfortable. Lovely quality soft furnishings and denby pottery crockery ."

"Wonderful mini break with my partner and our dog. Peaceful location, staff very helpful."

"Great location, really close to Skegness and other smaller seaside resorts. Was great having the on site restaurant which allowed dogs."

"Perfect holiday"

"Very nice would definitely stay there again"

"Excellent accommodation in a very quiet location. A perfect base, which allows easy access to all the local seaside resorts. The hot tub was perfect. I would highly recommend a stay here."

"Second visit to the little potting shed over Christmas this time thanks for the little extras and the Christmas tree love this place as location is good with several beaches near and many lovely villages to visit see you soon"

"Really lovely cosy cottage with everything there that you need. Ideal for a weekend away. Site is in a quiet location and has a lovely cafe bar which serves lovely food."

"The cottage was super! We were the first couple to use it and all the fittings and fixtures were as new. The design of the cottage was both modern and very attractive and the addition of a hot tub was the icing on the cake. The site was delightful and close to many attractions. We had meals and drinks in the on site bar/restaurant and we were always amazed at the quality. We met many of the staff and everyone of them were pleasant and helpful. We will certainly go again."

"Gorgeous cottage with top quality furniture and furnishings. Everything within the cottage is high end making a stay even more enjoyable.
Underfloor heating very welcoming when there is a chill outside.
Lovely hot-tub.
Great surroundings. Very peaceful."

"Fantastic clean accommodation, great hot tub. Lovely park."

"Amazing the little touches here really make it! We have booked to come back already :)"

"Top notch accomodation, everything is done to a very high standard and the hot tub is fabulous."

"There was no breadbin and no cupboard to store food but otherwise we'll equipt"

"Waterlily Cottage was spotlessly clean and the staff on site made sure everything was as should be. Great with the hot tub and dog friendly, ideal for the 2 of us and the dog.

This is not a criticism only some feedback, it would be good if there was somewhere to hang coats downstairs and maybe a footwear tray at the door to keep the place clean especially when the weather is bad and footwear is muddy."

"Brilliant & cosy cottage far enough out the way to be secluded but close enough to local amenities. Amazing hotub & bathroom with underfloor heating throughout tops it off. The owners, Rob & Sharon are wonderful! (And of course Bonnie) Will definitely be coming back again for longer ASAP!!"

"Beautiful cottage with hot tub and log burner. lovely hosts, peaceful, perfect for our mini break. Hope to return for longer soon!"

"Really well equipped house, lovely and warm too which was so nice on a rainy December day! Bath was just lovely and a nice big shower! The property is under a flight path - this did not disturb us at all! Dont be put off! A great location for dogs who hate fireworks as it's in the middle of nowhere. Really beautiful, well converted property. Thank you! "

"It was everything we wanted for our weekend away and we loved staying here. We'll definitely be back! Our pups absolutely loved the underfloor heating and had so much fun in the garden. In fact Luna came home with a strained tail and according to the vet it was because she was wagging it so much over the weekend!! Very happy pups and hoomans!"

"Lovely cottage. Great location for us. Away from the hustle and bustle. Great hot tub . Lovely helpful non intrusive owners. They have it just right!"

"Absolutely loved how well maintained and equipped this cottage is. Plenty of dog walks right on the doorstep. Very friendly host, they were so efficient and communication was excellent. We enjoyed meeting the animals on the farm and the very curious pig penelope. Perfect escape for us and the doggos. Will definitely be back, brilliant value!! Highly recommend. "

"Beautiful property, spotlessly clean, well equipped and very comfortable, had a fabulous break, hot tub amazing x"

"Very kind and considerate owners. Couldnt be better. Enormously helpful and extremely pleasant. Charming half-timbered cottage with a great strong shower, cosy kitchen & living room combination and very comfortable bed. Fantastic parking directly next to the rented cottage. Well heated and very charming, and spotlessly clean. Great walks across the fields to the local village of Thaxted and of course within easy travelling distance of the village, replete with half-timbered houses and windmill. "

"We had a wonderful time in Goddard Mead. The cottage was very complete and there were walks on the doorstep. The welcome and stay was very warm. The owners are lovely people."

"The owners Rob & Sharon, have gone to a great deal of work to sympathetically convert this historic building & we couldn't have had a warmer greeting from them both & of course Bonnie. Goddard's Mead has everything you need for a relaxing and comfortable stay. The location is in a great area of Essex and would recommend taking the time to wander around Thaxted and other villages/towns nearby to discover it's fascinating history & buildings. "

"Such a lovely place to stay in a really beautiful, private location. The owners were really friendly and helpful, nearby if needed but without breaking that sense of privacy. The hot tub was perfect after a day of cycling! One thing to be aware of, the cottage is right under Stansted's flight path, and so there's a lot of aircraft noise. It only took us a couple of hours to get used to it and it didn't spoil our holiday at all, but something to be aware of if you're sensitive to noise. "

"The lovely cottage is situated on a working farm, but is very private. The owners, Robert and Sharon, are delightful. The cottage is very spacious with good equipment in the kitchen and the bathroom. The bed is really comfortable. The garden is secluded; dog proof and with good furniture. There are numerous walks around. Thaxted has good restaurants. We liked The Star and The Maypole. The Swan and the Indian are not bad either. We thoroughly recommend this place. "

"We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and Sharon and Robert were great hosts and made us feel very welcome. The accommodation had everything we needed and was clean, comfortable and secure for our dog Archie. The location was ideal too with plenty of walks to find and Thaxted and surrounding villages are lovely places to visit. We felt our batteries had certainly been recharged during our week and we enjoyed our relaxing break! "

"Stayed here for a week from 15 to 22 July with our 2 mini daschund girls who thoroughly enjoyed there stay making new friends in the village of thaxted. The cottage is lovely especially the hot tub a bonus as it was the hottest days of the year so the water was coolled so it was more refreshing the hosts were very welcoming was nice to see there horses being taken to the fields each day you are on the flight path near stansted but I enjoyed watching the planes come in would definitely recommend "

"Lovely cottage, clean & all the facilities you need. Staff team very helpful and friendly. The Hide offers a tasty afternoon tea that we can recommend and dog friendly. Will definitely be coming back soon"

"We had another fabulous break at Herons Mead, the cottage was lovely and very tastefully decorated. The staff are amazing and very helpful and The Hide restaurant and bar offers great food and service. We will definitely be returning."

"Lovely cottage with excellent facilities, helpful staff on site and good local amenities, as an elderly couple with a small dog we found everything accessible, one suggestion for the shower/bath would be a non slip bath mat also a small table would be a good addition as we used the small outside table. The Hide cafe/bar on site is definitely worth a visit especially for Sunday lunch 5*(book a table) we also had a extremely good take away from there, overall highly recommend"

"5star accommodation ! Spotless and beautifully presented, fishing was good and the food at the Hide bar was fantastic with lovely friendly staff only downside was closing at 6pm weekdays 8pm fri and sat apart from that was a lovely break ! ?"

"Had a lovely weekend couldn’t fault anything really - beautiful accommodation - very clean - helpful friendly staff couldn’t recommend it more"

"Very clean, modern and spacious. Fully equipped and welcome package for me and the dogs. Hot tub great and enclosed. A great location and able to visit Skegness and Mablethorpe with ease. Wish I would have stayed longer."

"Loved our stay at Red Robin 2, lots of room inside, a small outside area, but lovely hot tub! We had drinks in the Hide and an excellent Sunday Lunch there. Close to the coast."

"We didn’t know what to expect when arriving at Herons Mead. You see pictures and comments but until you arrive you are never sure. Well I can say without any shadow of doubt that this is a superb cottage and venue. Everything was first class, so clean, equipped to the highest order. The site was really beautiful, with ducks and geese as residents ? the restaurant/ bar also was first class. The meals were excellent and all the staff were so friendly and helpful. Finally the hot tub was a very welcome addition. As you can see we were more than happy at what was on offer at Herons Mead. Will be back next year, just got to decide which week."

"Beautiful place so relaxing"

"Great cottage, great staff."

"My husband, Tazzy our dog and I stayed in fantastic accommodation. With everything we needed. The park and lakes looked beautiful, and looked w1ell maintained. Sad to leave."

"Fabulous stay,"

"It was lovely really enjoyed it thanks ?"

"Staff were lovely although, on Sunday we went to have just a few drinks as it was my birthday on the Monday but unfortunately she said they weren't allowed to serve just two people, alittle disappointed by that as in the visits book guest wrote that the staff couldn't do enough for them, even if we were to take the drinks back to the cottage with us, but I guess rules or rules."

"Great weekend The Potting Shed was very quirky well designed and all you need. Site was very quiet and well set out"
