5 Bed Farmhouse With Shared Pool
We were pleased to find accommodation available where we could all stay and have a bed, have our second Christmas Day and generally be together with lots of space. Having the pool to enjoy was a particular bonus as most of us enjoy the water.

Homely 3 bedroomed caravan on Mersea Island, Essex
Van is in one of the best spots for views and privacy. Very comfortable with everything you need close by. Another fab stay.

Spacious Country Home - Hot Tub and Seasonal Pool
Laura’s house is beautiful, it’s very private and the pool is fantastic. The house is cosy and spotless clean. The area is also quite nice, and there’s also a pub walking distance.

Barn, heated pool, stables, farm stay
Pretty much everything about this house was perfect, the host was very responsive and helpful. Really happy with the whole experience and hope to stay there again one day not just because of the beautiful house, but also to see the friendly chihuahuas that would come to sit with us in the afternoons.

beachside house with uninterrupted Sea views
Beautiful place, excellent facilities and clean. Antonina was brilliant, responsive and a lovely host. Would definitely recommend. It was perfect for our big family gathering and plenty for the kids to play with in the kids room! All in all, wonderful trip! Thank you so much for having us!

Bear House, Nayland, Suffolk
We enjoyed a relaxing weekend at Bear House. Marcus is a fantastic host, replying promptly and helping whenever we had questions. His house and gardens are spectacular and we loved our swim in his natural swimming pool. Nayland village is beautiful. We enjoyed a short walk along the river spotting a heron, several varieties of poppy and admiring the riverside houses on the way to the Anchor pub. We also enjoyed brunch at the old mill and a meal at the Angel, which is 5 minutes’ drive away in Stoke-by-Nayland.

Private, two bed accommodation in medieval house
Patsie’s accommodation is unique and second to none. In the center of the delightful village of Nayland, facing the church spire and clock, surrounded by scenic footpaths.

Skyfall
Great place with stunning views. Really well set up and Lee super accommodating in general.

Gorgeous cottage set in Bures
Beautiful cottage with everything you could need. We went with two kids and it was so nice not to have to pack the whole house/fridge for just one night. The kitchen was stocked with tea, coffee, fresh milk and bread, jam and butter! Everything was so easy and the landscaped garden is beautiful. On top of this we left behind an electric toothbrush which was posted back to us the day after we left :-)

We absolutely loved this home and would love to stay again! It was immaculately clean, well equipped, and has a fab garden, which we were able to use a lot due to the gorgeous weather. Close to shops, great cafes and the beach. Really quick and helpful responses from hosts. We really appreciated the lovely welcome gift and the bucket and spade got a lot of use - thank you! We will definitely recommend to friends and family and will be back.

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.

Cottage in Sudbury
Very well-located for gorgeous walks and great restaurants. Courtyard garden was a particular treat; I heard a cuckoo on my second morning.

This is wonderful accommodation, spacious for two and a dog with a nice garden in a beautiful area. Accommodation was very clean and comfortable. There are plenty of local walks without even having to drive, plus a very decent local pub with excellent food. We had a fantastic time and would definitely visit again.

Robin’s Nest - 4-bed home close to beach
Comfortable home in peaceful location but near to the beach, very pet friendly. Mersea island is a lovely location. Plenty of lovely pubs within 10min walking distance. Mel is a fantastic host, very friendly and goes out of her way to make your holiday special.

The Old Steam Mill, Luxury in a beautiful location
We had a wonderful weekend at the old steam mill. Photos don’t do it justice - it’s even more spacious and beautiful in real life! Very comfortable and quiet, the hosts Mark and Celina accommodated us at very short notice and were lovely and responsive when needed. The garden was perfect to enjoy a drink and meals in the warm summer evenings and our dog loved exploring. It was everything we hoped for a countryside getaway not too far from London.
