블래치스 팜(Blatches Farm)

Without doubt the best bed and breakfast in Essex. Friendly hosts, idyllic off the beaten track setting yet within 15 minutes of Stansted, 5 minutes to Dunmow and 10 minutes to Braintree. Spacious rooms with ensuite facility's and a hearty breakfast to finish off ( proper butcher's sausages too, no Richmond rubbish here). Cannot recommend highly enough.

Arrived to find a dishevelled property, nothing like the photo on ***********, the farm yard was a mess abd the sheds unappealing, no one appeared, it felt a scary place to be so we left. Was so disappointed, we then had a 4hour drive home.

We would highly recommend staying at Blatches Farm. Excellent value for money. Lovely breakfast and Liz and Dave and their team were great. Lovely room with good internet access. Perfect spot for access to Essex and London by car. Graham and Josie

Excellent value for money. Cosy, comfortable, clean. Breakfast great. Deffo stay again. Staff were attentive and friendly. Nothing to much trouble. Wake up call from the peacock. Everything in the room that you need, close to Dunmow and all amenities. Keep the great work up guys.

I would highly recommend staying with Liz and Dave on the farm. The rooms are lovely and the way they make you feel at home makes a big difference to the working week. A really good nights rest followed by the best breakfast. So much better than the more sterile chain hotels.

We received a very warm welcome and everything was just perfect. The room was spacious and a super king bed was very comfortable. There were tea and coffee making facilities in our room and even a small fridge if needed. A fan was in the room in case it was very hot. We had a good meal in a local pub recommended by David and it didn’t disappoint. The breakfast was delicious, just about anything you could wish for in a very nice dining room, we will certainly return next time we are in the area

Lovely rural location Friendly and helpful owners Breakfast was superb and 10/10 The accommodation was clean and tidy although the shower and basin taps needed some attention (loose fitting) The showe head needed a de scale as water was flying at all angles

Comfortable rooms and lovely welcome from host Liz would definitely recommend.

Great place to stay . Hosts very friendly , breakfast suoerb. Will definitely stay again .
