Lydia went above and beyond to make our stay so perfect, allowing us to check in slightly earlier and slightly later and also leaving a birthday card and gift which was very unexpected and ever so kind. The cottage itself was spotless and very cosy. The beds were very comfortable and the kitchen had everything we needed. Parking was no problem, and such a convenient location. The little touches really make a house a home, and we all really did feel at home here. Not always an easy thing to achieve, but this place was just perfect. Thanks again Lydia for your kindness.

The location is great. The property is within walking distance of the train station and there is a bus stop right in front of the house, so it’s easy to get around. There are pubs and cafés also within walking distance, as well as the co-op (grocery store). There was plenty of room in the apartment, which was clean. Everything was provided from bath towels, pots & pans, dishes, and bed linens. The host (Liam) and staff (Sally) are super responsive and accommodating, and went above and beyond to ensure we had a good stay.

This is a perfect location with easy access to public transportation. There is a bus stop right out front and the train station is within walking distance. Wivenhoe itself is very quaint with several pubs, cafés, and shops. The Town of Colchester is easily accessible, as is the University of Essex. Everything was provided, including bed linens, bath towels, pots and pans, and dishes. The host (Liam) was responsive when I had a question, and Sally was incredibly kind and accommodating.

Service was excellent, both as an overnight guest and as a member of a large dinner party. Food was also excellent, all our party agreed. I had pork belly, duck and creme brulee... The room was very nicely decorated, warm and clean. The ensuite shower room was warm, big towels and enough of the usual supplies. Coffee, tea, hot chocolate and fruit teas, biscuits, milk in the cutest bottles, couldn't have done more. Breakfast was good, the service excellent and the choice unlimited. I would highly recommend The Courthouse for dinner or overnight stay.

I think the village, itself is charming and being so small,...

I think the village, itself is charming and being so small, is easy to get around on foot. Unfortunately there is not much parking but as it was never intended for cars - that's understandable. One negative point was the pub on the quay, the Rose and Crown. Great location but the service was poor. They said they were really busy as they had a lot of customers. Being August, a Sunday, and holiday season - that's to be expected and not an excuse. We waited over an hour and other people who arrived after us, got served first. Even if their food was easier to make - it's not a good look. Also, the food was expensive and not that great. I would recommend the Yachtsman in Brightlingsea as a much better eating alternative.

Our visit was too short to explore the local history, explore far on foot, or make use of the ferry, but we enjoyed the variety of places to eat and drink, in a very small place. During our short stay, we enjoyed Indian and pub food, along with a coffee shop, all within a very short walk of our accommodation.
