Lovely village stay
The room was an unexpected delight so many thoughtful things - the breakfast hamper, drinks and snacks in the fridge. The quality of the products in the room was excellent.

Lovely rustic pub / hotel. Room was great with the most comfortable bed I’ve slept in for some time. Kitchen was closed for refurbishment but only a short walk into the centre of the village. Good choice of cask ales in the bar. Will stop here again if work brings me back to the area

Wonderful historic Inn with very comfortable room
Situated on the outskirts of the lovely village of Coggeshall next to the church this historic Inn was a wonderful, peaceful get away. The bedroom had been refurbished to a high standard whilst retaining it's historic charm. The staff were welcoming and friendly. Would definitely stay here again.

A perfect little place to prepare.
We stayed here the night before my daughter's wedding and it was perfect. My daughter had the deluxe room and they brought her a complementary bottle of prosecco which was a lovely touch. The breakfast hamper was excellent as was the coffee.
