Excellent breakfast and comfy beds!

Our family stay was very relaxing and the house annex was in a nice quiet location. The owners were very welcoming and the shower/toilet facilities were very clean. There was an outdoor patio to use and the beds were very comfortable! The cooked breakfast in the morning was excellent. We would definitely stay again!

We stayed one night in order to visit Talliston House in Great Dunmow. We had a wonderful stay. The room was lovely and warm, cosy and had everything we needed. We appreciated the milk, beverages and cookies. Everything was clean, the beds were lovely and it was a very quiet area. The gardens looked lovely, but weather did not allow us to fully explore. The cooked breakfast was a lovely start to the day. Faultless stay.

Small but perfectly formed

I normally stay away from small B&Bs preferring my privacy but this is all self contained and a great place to stay with a welcoming host who let me use the garage for my bike too. OMG the biscuits were gorgeous too!

Great B and B in a very attractive village.

The accommodation provides everything one wants. High standard of cleanliness. Tea , coffee and orange juice provided on arrival together with a chocolate bar. The breakfast cannot be bettered. Freshly cooked with a variety of ingredients all of the best quality. Pleasant welcoming atmosphere. Why can`t all accommodation be like this?

Lovely place for an escape.

I stayed at the Annex, which was a welcome retreat during a busy trip. It was a comfortable and clean room with some ability to prepare food. The owner, Diane, welcomed me for breakfast, a good one after bland hotel food. The village has one narrow road lined with distinct homes - not quite cottages, not quite houses. The single pub is a lively meeting place. There are a number of green spaces, at either end of the village and in the middle. These help calm down the constant traffic on High Street.
