Homely 3 bedroomed caravan on Mersea Island, Essex
We had a lovely stay. The caravan was perfect and the beds super comfortable. The view was beautiful,the pictures dont do it justice. We were lucky with the weaher,it was lovely sitting on the decking in the beautiful Autum sunshine. Just wish we stayed longer. Thank you.

Spacious Country Home - Hot Tub and Seasonal Pool
We booked this place last minute, but it turned out to be a great choice. A large property that amply accommodated our group.

beachside house with uninterrupted Sea views
This was an absolutely perfect stay. The house is enormous yet homely, beautifully appointed and with the most breathtaking views. The pool and spa are an added bonus and the path down to the beach / estuary is gorgeous. All in all an absolutely fabulous place and we will be back. Thank you xxx

Writer's Cottage at Shore Hall
A wonderful stay. The pool was warm and a great addition to the stay. A shame to leave! Highly recommend.

DaisyChain 2 Getaway- StayPlayGetaway
What made our stay so great was the communication we had with Daisy. There were a few snags, parking, getting in the complex late at night without a key code, heating and water didn’t work the first day and the light in the kids room didn’t work. That said, she was incredibly helpful and polite. All sorted quick as a flash. Very clean, free WiFi, all you needed for a nice weekend break. Would 100% go again and recommend to any family. We’re a family of 5 and it was …..⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️!!!!!! Thankyou Daisy! 💙

Private, two bed accommodation in medieval house
A truly wonderful house, with a real sense of history from the moment Patsie greeted us and showed us around. There are so many interesting things to look at in the house. The village is beautiful and has a pub with delicious food just 3 minutes walk away. We are already hoping to go back again

The FelixStowaway
We were in Felixstowe for a family emergency. Communication was very quick which was appreciated as it was all very short notice. We are familiar with the area and it’s well located with good access to the beach, shops and restaurants. The home was cosy and warm even though it was extremely cold outside when we were there.

#Long-StayDiscounts/Contractors/Hospital/Relocate#
Had a lovely stay here. Found the rooms really spacious and comfortable. It’s a peaceful location yet near the city and has A12 access for a quick getaway. The coffee shop and Coop a few minutes walk away were also really handy for the morning boost and to shop.

Detached 3 En-Suites, Parking & Annex
Matt was a great host and very responsive. The house was a great location, close to Colchester and our wedding venue in Feering. Rooms were spacious, great communal area, kitchen and living room. All utensils provided. Would highly recommend

Whole 4 bed House Brentwood: Corporate/Contractors
We had the pleasure of staying for an entire month in this immaculate property where we immediately felt at home. Located in a quiet residential area but close to local amenities the facilities are excellent and the hosts go above and beyond to ensure you have an enjoyable stay. We would wholeheartedly recommend this property.

3 Bedroom House | 2 Free Parking | WiFi | Station
We enjoyed our stay at this lovely property which was in pristine condition. Very close to the university which was exactly what we needed for this visit. The free parking space round the back was super convenient. The house was well stocked with all the essentials and some luxuries too - a nice surprise. We'd like to thank our hosts for having the property ready for us in such a welcoming way. This was definitely one of the best places we've stayed at in Colchester in this price range, with lovely hosts too. We're looking forward to our next visit.

Idyllic house and gardens on estuary
This house is absolutely beautiful, so characterful and charming with the most gorgeous grounds and gardens. Jo was an amazing host and so helpful in advance of our trip, providing lots of tips and ideas for things to do in the area. We were 3 families with small children and she provided 2 travel cots and 3 high chairs - brilliant! We will definitely be coming back. The children fed the alpacas, ducks and chickens and played all weekend in the glorious garden.

Perfect destination there was a gym and shop, one minute away for your property felt right at home. Thanks again.Kev

Old Oak Barn with Jacuzzi hot tub
Cannot recommend this place highly enough. Marcus ensured we were very well informed before arrival providing a guest book with comprehensive information and recommendations. We were greeted with bottles of wine & the house was very warm & music sound system set up. The barn is absolutely beautiful & immaculate. It is in a very remote area but this suited us all as we were happy to stay in and enjoy it. The log burner, games room & hot tub were added bonuses. A big thank you to Marcus for a truly amazing weekend break away with good friends ❤️

We had a lovely Easter weekend at Carly's place. Nice welcoming gift of Easter treats. Lovely and quiet.

Welcoming Semi Detached House in Suffolk
I’ve stayed at Rosie’s house a number of times and it is a perfect base for visiting my family in the area. The house is great for my grandchildren with a supply of games and a sweet little back garden. Rosie supplies a great welcome pack so there is no need to rush out and buy the basics as soon as you arrive. Great supply of toiletries and fluffy towels too!

Large home 2-3 beds 3 baths
Lovely home and hosts. Perfectly located to explore Billericay for a weekend, it’s very close to shops and restaurants. Thank you!

2 bed family home, 5 min drive from the beach
Lovely house with a great space in the kitchen. The games table was a massive hit with the family. Now have to buy one for the kids 😂. Thank you.

Home from Home
Amazing host. Super responsive and helpful. Lovely house. We had a small dog. Was well accommodated. Was a lovely house with everything you been. There was water and milk left for us. Lovely backyard.

5 Bed House inc Parking, Fast WiFi, Pet Friendly
Our operatives enjoyed their stay at Andy's place, we extended our stay beyond the original term. Great host, great communication, would recommend.

The Round House
Myself and partner have just got home from a cheeky 3rd anniversary weekend away with a hidden agenda. The Roundhouse was a great base for our plan’s for visiting Audley End House. Claire was a great host and very responsive to messages. We also had the bonus of a slightly earlier checkin. The house is well equipped for all your needs and the welcome hamper and bottle of wine was great touch. The house has such a charm. The Roundhouse will always be special to us as I used the weekend to propose to my partner Gemma whilst at Audley End House. We will be back for sure.
