    Very comfy bed and an excellent breakfast. Holiday Inn has a reputation for being pretty standard but I was really pleasantly surprised by the quality of the stay here. Would definitely stay in a Holiday Inn again now.

    The accommodation was very clean on arrival. Some lovely little touches. Fresh Eggs from the hosts Chickens. Lovely biscuits. Two packets for each of us. A tasty Sour Dough fresh Loaf with local mini pots of Jams. Some Organic Butter and a pint of semi skimmed Milk, all were very welcoming. Lovely big towels and 3 for each of us. A really lovely stay. We will be back for another stay. Thank you Emily and Daniel.

    We liked the charming and characterful pub (next door to our accommodation) with the lovely staff, the peace of the countryside and the very kind and thoughtful owner who was very helpful with our rather difficult timings. Nothing was too much trouble for her! The pub food was also delicious. The cabin we stayed in was very clean and comfortable and a little breakfast table was laid up.for us on arrival. We were on our way to a wedding nearby and this was the perfect place to stay.

    The accomodation is beautifully clean and tastefully decorated, and furnished, so has a sense of calm and relaxation as soon as you enter. Welcome pack and good choice for teas and coffees, together with everything you need for a self catered break. When I visit Colchester again this will be my choice again for where to stay. Thank you again Alex and V.

    Spacious family accomodation with good facilities. Very friendly and helpful owner. Perfect for our needs - extended family in two next-door cottages but enough space for us all to eat together in the bigger one. We hope to stay again.

    I had an incredible stay at Swish Studio, part of the Staylux experience. The modern design, impeccable cleanliness, and attentive staff exceeded my expectations. The amenities were top-notch, making our stay both comfortable and luxurious. I highly recommend Swish Studio for a memorable and stylish accommodation.

    Really very easy to book. Host provided lots of information regarding accommodation and surrounding location and was quick to respond to any queries. The room was very comfortable, the bed was amazing, so comfortable, and we both had the best nights sleep, and everything you needed for a comfortable night's stay was provided, towels, toiletries, tea/coffee, hairdryer, iron/ironing board to mention but a few.

    I appreciated the courtesy call on the day of arrival, they made sure the accommodation was warm for our arrival and everything was neat and clean. Great price for a short stay and convenient location. Will definitely book again in summer.
