I have never been to Essex before and had no idea of what to expect from this town. We were there for a wedding locally and all in all the hotel was a really lovely find! The room was large and had everything we needed. The staff were helpful and there when needed. The night porter was immediately on hand... More

Stayed in a room at the front of the hotel for 1 night. The room was bright with two large windows looking over the main street to the front and was well furnished with good quality soft furnishings. The en-suite was clean and had a good shower. We chose not to have breakfast on this occasion.

We had one double and one single. Both were adequate size, clean, tidy and with tea/coffee facilities, TV and all equipment in good working order.

Actual pub a little depressing but great place to... More

The room I had was largely adequate, but the curtains had clearly come from a different room, so weren't wide enough to cover the window and keep the light out. The bathroom was nice, with a good powerful shower. Breakfast was OK, but I was surprised that at £62/night for the room it wasn't included in the price.

I wasn't sure what to expect when I booked this hotel - it definitely surpassed my expectations. Very clean, newly renovated, country charm.
