This is the 4th time we have stayed here and its consistently worth a 5 star rating. Diane is warm and friendly and will provide advice and tips relating to your visit without being intrusive. The accommodation is exceptionally well equipped , comfortable, spacious and luxurious. I am gluten free and breakfast here is an absolute dream. No worries about contamination or the risk of eating something containing gluten. The room is quiet and the bedding is exceptionally comfortable. We visited the local pub and even the patrons commented on how perfect Motts Cottage is and how Diane's breakfasts are infamous . This is a highly recommended venue and without a doubt we will return.

Having to check out and Dianes excellent tips on where to shop. Her advice was spot on and my car was extra extra laden by the time we left the country.

Diane provided clear instructions to help me find the property and park up in the right place as well as a warm welcome. The annex is set back from the main house and feels very private. If I had had the weather I would have used the outdoor seating area but instead went for a walk around the village and countryside before retiring to watch Drive to Survive on Netflix! I was only staying one night so didn't expect to be left a whole packet of biscuits with the tea and coffee making facilities and the full English Breakfast was out of this world. I didn't need to eat again for the rest of the day! I do quite a lot of travelling and staying in similar properties and I can say that this was one of the best and exceptional value. I would stay at the annex again

There was nothing I disliked

Second time i have been and couldn’t wait to return. Beautiful little property, giving easy access to the motorway for onward trip to Scotland, really peaceful. Attention to detail inside the property in the bed linen, quality towels, fridge and milk and biscuits to make you feel at home. It is a hidden gem and well worth a visit, even to just to sit in the beautiful gardens and enjoy a glass of something, weather permitting. Without doubt thee best breakfast i have ever had in the morning, i kid you not. The quality of the produce and the warm and friendly host. Treat yourself, you wont be disappointed.

Having to leave in the morning

Spacious room in annex, thoughtfully equipped and furnished. I found the bed extremely comfortable and the bedding luxurious. The en-suite was warm with a good sized shower. Warm hospitality, superb breakfast in delightful main cottage kitchen. Parking was straight down the drive (Motts Yard) and then left to park in front of a double garage.

N/A

Everything was perfect, but our favourite bit was the outdoor seating area in the sun trap to sit back and admire the beautiful garden, breakfast was also lovely cooked with quality local ingredients. Our daughter is autistic and usually struggles to adjust to new surroundings but having Netflix in the room enabled her to watch the things she likes and even she called it her new home.

There was nothing to dislike.

The whitest sheets, comfy bed. Privacy, you name it. Wish we had stayed longer. For the sake of a few miles from the airport and the massed produced hotel rooms. Do yourself a favour a chill out at this Bed and Breakfast. What a breakfast. Bonus to, is a pub up the road The White Hart, that does the best home fired pizza.

Leaving

The stay was as all the previous reviews alluded to. Clean, comfortable and warm (it was the end of January 2025. Breakfast was more than enough and Diane was a perfect host. We would definitely be happy to stay there again. Thank you Diane

Nothing. Apart from the reason for being in the Stebbing area, a family funeral.

Great welcome, quiet location, comfortable and exceptionally well presented accommodation. Host (Diane) was helpful with local knowledge and information. We would recommend the White Hart for pizza, open Wednesday -Sunday. Diane cooked an amazing breakfast, thought of everything! On a sunny day & evening a wonderful garden to sit in. Thank you for a restful few days.

Can’t think of anything, …….. everything has been considered for their guests. Highest recommendation, we would stay again if in the area.

Lovely, spacious room in a convenient location. High quality furnishings, duvets and pillows etc, very clean and comfortable. Diane was an attentive host, communicating before my arrival and providing clear guidance on check out, property details and general info.

No concerns, property was great.

The Annex was a perfect location to get to our event 10 minutes away. It was lovely to have our own front door for a B&B. We only stayed one night but you could easily stay longer as the room was spacious and had every thing we needed. Free Wi-Fi, TV, a large quiet fridge, Kettle for beverages, a lovely shower room with plenty of towels and shower and hand soap. The delicious cooked breakfast was in the main house. Altogether a little gem.

To be honest there was nothing we didn’t like. Diane had put a lot of thought into what was needed and it showed.
