We enjoyed our stay here, property was spacious and had everything we needed for a comfortable break. The children particularly enjoyed the garden. Nice location, very peaceful and not far to the coast.

A really lovely, spacious property with a garden full of birds and wildlife. The decor is a little dated, but the property is clean, comfortable, and well equipped. Great as a base to explore the surrounding area. We absolutely loved it and will probably be returning in the future as we had such a lovely visit.

Ruim vakantieverblijf

Het is een ruime vakantiewoning doch, sterk verouderd. De woning was niet helemaal goed schoon. Het was waarschijnlijk al een tijdje niet bewoond geweest. Bij binnenkomst was het warm en muf. De vriezer was waarschijnlijk open blijven staan daar deze helemaal vol met ijs zat (hebben we zelf opgelost, vriezer is weer schoon en werkt uitstekend). In de keuken en in de badkamer stonk het. Een lucht die me deed denken aan rottend water. Vermoedelijk is er zowel in de badkamer als in de keuken een hele kleine lekkage. Het hang- en sluitwerk van het separate toilet valt soms uit de deur. De droogmolen en het bankje in de tuin waren bedekt met duivenpoep. Dit klinkt wellicht als harde kritiek maar, zo hebben we het aangetroffen. Als er net iets meer aandacht wordt gegeven aan het huisje en de spullen is het een prachtige vakantiewoning om te verblijven als je met de boot aankomt of voordat je met de boot vertrekt. In de omgeving is weinig te doen. Het dorpje Wix heeft alleen een lokale pup. Het stadje Ipswich (30 min rijden) is gezellig om te winkelen. Voordeel van de locatie, je bent binnen 15 min in Harwich om de boot te nemen.

We took the younger family members and survived

Nice location and property. A little extra tlc on cleaning certain areas needs viewing. We did not take towels with us as stated linen provided so assumed wrongly that they were included so had to go and buy some ( our mistake) Good spacious rooms and overall all enjoyed our stay.
