“GREAT PLACE AND CENTRAL TO ALL OF ESSEX”

HOTEL WAS VERY CLEAN AND WELL KEPT. THE USE OF THEIR SEVICES WAS AN EXTA BONUS, I.E SAUNA, SWIMMING POOL. STAFF WERE VERY FREINDLY AND ANSWERED ALLL QUESTIONS. THE BAR WAS OK WITH A LIMMITED SELECTION OF BEER AND LAGER BUT THAT IS MY ONLY QUIP. THE FOOD WAS EXCELENT WITH A GOOD VARIETY OF DISHES AT AN EXCELENT PRICE. 99.8% SATISFACTION BEUTIFULL GROUNDS,GOLF COARSE I DONT PLAY GOLF BUT THAT DID NOT MATER.

“Good, recommended resort”

Quiet, comfortable golf resort. Large rooms in the lodge that is separate from reception/restaurant/gym/swimming pool complex. Older decor, but comfortable with room coffee, tea, biscuits. Power (super) shower, toiletries, ample towels and pillows. Excellent heating when required. WiFI is free. If you jog, the area is flat and great for you - nearby airfields and farms. Decent breakfast, friendly staff. Colchester is about 6 miles away. If your satnav is a Garmin, please do not let it take you to some 'Nandos' at Head Street, postcode CO5! Someone's village residence! Correct Nandos - postcode CO1. Overall, well-priced, great if u don't golf, even greater if you do.

“Very relaxing break”

Went here for a few days getaway and to pamper myself in the beauty salon. The hotel rooms are very nice although are at far end of hotel so check-in and then collect your bags from car.The hotel is situated beside a business park so when you drive up you feel like you are going the wrong way until you see the signs for ' The Essex'. I had to keep asking where things were as there was no obvious signage of how to get to swimming pool, sauna, etc. Also as most visitors are members there is a turnstyle to go through to get in which became quite awkward always asking to be let through. The beauty salon was very nice. I decided to treat myself and rates were quite reasonable with very friendly staff who made me feel very pampered. As a solo female traveller in her 20s I did feel out of place in the mornings as most people in the restaurant/br were the male golfers. The hotel has a good location between Halstead and Colchester with good access to main roads/motorways. Very easy to find. I would recommend this to others and advise not to be put off by the industrial park as once at the hotel you don't even realise it is there!!

“Lovely”

Clean, well presented rooms, good facilities, reasonable bar food prices.

“Value for Money”

Did not know what to expect as the room rate was competitively priced per night b@b but upon arrival we were very happy with the rooms and general layout of the facility. We were very impressed with the Leisure facilities and all the staff were pleasant. Would definately recomend the hotel.

“Fab break”

Totally lovely break-was really nice to chill out in the pool and nip out to the sun lounger. Breakfase was quite basic-but the setting made up for it.

“Happy to return”

Great value for money. Leisure facilities, including pool, sauna and gymnasium very good. Food good value but basic bar menu. good ambience, excellent staff. Happy to recommend and would return.
