What our customers say about their holidays

  • David - Verified booking

    This cottage was just what we needed.

    It is in a quiet street with no through traffic and so lovely and relaxing. The cottage was very pretty and comfortable and had everything we needed. My initial concern about parking was unfounded as there was always plenty of free parking in nearby streets. There are good places to eat nearby, The Alma pub and The Pier restaurant both do exquisite food, the Hanover pub does good traditional meals in huge portions, and the café on the pier was friendly and convenient. Harwich has some good historic attractions, we would recommend a visit to Harwich Redoubt Fort. Further afield, Sutton Hoo, and Saint Peters Church on the wall are definitely worth a visit.

  • John - Verified booking

    Wonderful property, with lots of attention to little details that were really appreciated.

    Superbly placed with lots to do within walking (or walk and ferry) distance. Loved the peace and quiet, and the secluded patio garden. However, the bed mattress provided little support and meant nights were not comfortable. I`m sad that this means we can`t give the top rating and recommendation (which we otherwise would), because apart from this, it really is a gem of a place. Oh - and parking was never an issue.

  • Marilyn - Verified booking

    A good cottage, ideally situated just a short walk to the harbouside and pubs.

    Facilities good apart from the shower, which was in an awkward position and didn't have a very good flow. I understand that with an old building it's not always easy but I think a shower cubicle would have been preferable. We did have an issue with the television, it took us a while to work out the correct configuration. More comprehensive instructions would have been handy.

  • Julia - Verified booking

    I loved the quirky nature of this lovely 18th century cottage.

    The retrieval of the keys and the storing of them after my visit was a little complicated and I had to input the code several times to open the box. Harwich Old Town is lovely and I am determined to return next year during some warmer months!
