Seaview B&B

Harwich

Boasting a garden and views of sea, Seaview B&B is a recently renovated bed and breakfast set in Harwich, 26 km from Flatford. This beachfront property offers access to free WiFi and free private parking. The accommodation offers a housekeeping service and private check-in and check-out for guests. We were absolutely stunned by the perfection of the room. Clearly its quality level far exceeds its price range. It almost felt as coming home. We saw this as a simple solution to sleep before catching the ferry, but we already decided to return and stay a couple of days more. I really would recommend.

Prince Cottage

Colchester

Set in Colchester, in a historic building, 28 km from Freeport Braintree, Prince Cottage is a bed and breakfast with a garden and barbecue facilities. It is located 31 km from Hedingham Castle and provides full-day security. The bed and breakfast offers garden views, a picnic area, a 24-hour front desk, and free WiFi is available. The location was perfect not too far from the town centre, and on a quiet side street, so it wasn't too noisy. The building itself was small, so not too many guests which kept it homely and welcoming. The owners were amazing, they truly went above and beyond, and even made it like a little party for my sisters birthday, which we hadn't asked for. I feel as though we have made new friends who we would like to visit frequently. The food was impeccable, fresh eggs from their hens, quality butcher sausages all freshly cooked, no frozen food. We felt like we were treated like family whilst we were there.
