"A historical hotel from 1400 with large rooms , staff who all care about their job and the place they work, reasonable rates, tasty breakfast and a 100s of years old ghost to go with it . Hidden secret in Colchester in the middle of town, would definitely come back !"

"Fantastic hotel. Luke and the team were brilliant. Great food great garden and they even sorted out the weather for us as well."

"Attentiveness was excellent, customer service was on a high standard! Cannot fault anything with exception of the lack of air conditioning in the rooms. I’m sure it’s a warm and cosy during winter however please invest in air conditioning. "
