David

The location was excellent, being just a few minutes' walk from the High Street and local buses. The breakfasts were plentiful and delicious. We had 2 evening meals at the hotel restaurant ( The Green Room) and they were outstanding, particularly the locally caught fresh fish.

Colchester is a brilliant town to visit, you have the old and new part to walk round ranging from a good collection of shops and food outlets to browse and walking round the various churches, castle, monastery ruins and lovely parks. The town is within walking distance of both train stations, taxis are plenty also. Take a good pair of comfy walking attire for feet as you will be walking up and down gradients!! A great place to visit on the local bus is Manningtree where there is a antiques emporium to walk round with a great cafe in the high street for food. If visiting Colchester for the first time I recommend staying at least a minimum of 4 days as their is a lot to see of interest. Lots of charity shops too!! For families do visit Colchester Zoo which is a great day out, this can be reached by bus also if you do not drive.lynetteUnited Kingdom - 10Scored 10

Great weekend destination. Loads of big and little shops, cafes, restaurants and craft ales bars. Great atmosphere in town. On top of this the most amazing castle and wobbly medieval houses and Roman walls something for everyone!!

You have to be fit as there is a lot of walking
You have to be fit as there is a lot of walking The hotel was half way up the hill and the nearest bus stops at the top or bottom. There are many buses which basicly end up at Osbourne road bus station There are numerous scooters for hire with i phone but i didnt see a main point of distribution just abonded scooters hear and there .

Colchester is a gem.
Colchester is a gem. Lovely architecture and sights, good cafes and pubs, shopping and eateries. It's not at all dog friendly, though, which is a big drawback if you ask me. Come on, Colchester, Britain loves its pets!MattUnited Kingdom

- 9.0Scored 9.0SuperbRated superb· 49 reviewsCharming, Victorian cottage in a quirky village. Equiped with everything we needed and extra touches such as Cava and treats. Enjoyed walking around the village looking at all the different architectural styles. Very convenient to be able to walk along the river path into Colchester and catch bus/train back. Loved the Castle Museum. Train to the coast was great too. Sitting on the patio with a glass of wine at the end of the day.
LorraineUnited Kingdom - 9.0Scored 9.0SuperbRated superb· 215 reviewsBeautiful cottage with a unique character. The owner is very kind, friendly and accommodating. The room was charming and clean, and the bed had a lovely heated blanket (a first for me!:)). Had a great night's sleep. The breakfast was also delicious. The location is very close to the city center and Colchester Town train station. Had an absolutely wonderful time here.StanislavUnited Kingdom
