Honest Feedback

Loverly setting however the bed and especially the pillows are not good enough for a good nights sleep or comfort, I hand a ground room and at 22:30 the room above was used which for the rest of the night the gentleman may as well have been in my room with me and could hear every from TV, walking around and phones calls WIFI poor also but have seen this reviews previously and it’s just a remote place but very peaceful so don’t plan on getting any work done on PC.

A great B&B in the Colchester area in a nice quiet

Enjoyed a great 2 night stay at the Woodview B&B recently. The friendly owner was very welcoming on our arrival showing us to the room we had booked. Located in a quiet village location, but only about 4-5 miles away from some major stores and a range of eating establishments. The room was very comfortable with on suite, tv and tea/coffee making facilities. A lovely breakfast was provided from a range of options. Thoroughly recommended

Say hi to the parrot!

Lovely and welcoming B&B tucked away at the end of a quiet domestic street. Well decorated and spotlessly clean accommodation. Welcoming hostess and great selection of breakfast options.

Quiet, comfortable and friendly B&B

We were made to feel very welcome when we arrived. The room was clean and comfortable and the breakfast was very good. If you like quiet, this is for you as it is in a very quiet location There are no pubs or restraunts close by so you will have to drive for a meal but that was not a problem for us as it gives you a chance to explore the area a bit more. Overall, very happy.

HOME FROM HOME

I have never taken the time to write a review even though I stay in hotels around once per week but my stay with Julie definitely warrants this. I was down for one night & fancied a change from the usual main stream hotels that I usually stay in for business. I shall now be staying with Julie every time I am in & around the Colchester area. What a lovely welcome & Julie couldn't have been more accommodating. The rooms were lovely as was breakfast. If you are looking for a great nights sleep & a wonderful breakfast stay here!!!
