    Our hostess was lovely and welcoming, the site is in a pleasant countryside region close to Colchester with beautiful walks all around. My son said the breakfast was good and the portions were definitely so. The building itself is atmospheric

    Amazing location surrounded by beautiful countryside and walks on the doorstep. Lovely accommodation full of character. The hosts were great - there if needed but otherwise we were left to ourselves. Also loved the dog and Ernie the parrot!

The area to the South East of Colchester is steeped in Roman history, in particular links to the Warrior Queen herself (Boudicea). There are also strong connections to the Royalist campaign during the English Civil War. The award-winning Colchester Zoo is one of Europe's finest zoos and is essential for a fun-packed day out for all the family!
