Fabulous resort style hotel.

Booked on a recommendation from a local venue and it didn’t disappoint all rooms are in lodges with a cafe/bistro on site. We had breakfast and dinner which were both freshly cooked and excellent.

Wonderful

My fiancé and I had a wonderful stay at Channels. The staff were wonderfully helpful, especially Tom and James on reception, in that there was no problem arriving early, as they took care of our luggage and we parked one of our cars there, whilst we went into Chelmsford. The room was lovely, such a comfy bed, the bathroom was large compared to most hitel bathrooms, super clean and had a lovely big bath and shower. Sunday morning breakfast was a buffet and the cooked food amazing. All the staff were really polite and helpful. The garden areas are pretty and the whole place has an aura of calm and tranquility. We had a fabulous time, have already made another booking and would thoroughly recommend Channels Lodge.
