We live on the south coast and were attending a large family reunion in Bishop's Stortford so Spring Paddocks was the ideal location. We needed to stay for two nights and did not want to stop in a large hotel chain. They are alright but we wanted somewhere peaceful to unwind and take it easy as we are both in our 70s. Spring Paddocks was perfect being set in the Essex countryside. The host was lovely and provided everything we needed. The accomodation was equipped with a kitchen with ample foodstuff for a quick continental breakfast. One thing we really appreciated is having fresh milk instead of the awful long-life stuff supplied in a lot of places. Highly recommended and we will certainly return there if the need arises.

It took time to get used to the slopping ceiling.

Chosen as a close by accommodation to a family event at Alswick Barn. A warm welcome received from Christine, hostess on arrival with all details about the accommodation., even though it was detailed in the room - a nice personal touch. Our short stay was a twin bed garden room at the back of the main house, but it was private and quiet. First class, faultless, quality accommodation, spacious and with plentiful tea, coffee, breakfast supplies in the room. Asked for suggested dinner options and was referred to the Bewery Tap pub down the road which didnt disappoint. Would highly recommend

Nothing really to dislike about the accommodation. Situated up a narrow country lane, but wasnt a problem.

Superb accommodation set within a quite idyllic location. Though the owner lives onsite, the property is afforded a great deal of privacy with spectacular views in all directions. In addition, a private graveled driveway together with electronic gates ensures a comforting sense of security. Our one-night stay was both quiet and restful, enhanced as it was by the high level of cleanliness and maintenance observed within the rooms. The facilities within the accommodation left us wanting for nothing. It is a well-known fact that we Yorkshiremen tend to be careful with our money. I consider ‘Spring Paddocks’ to be of excellent value, and in Christine, it is complemented with a most perfect host. We would have absolutely no hesitation in returning for future stays at this wonderful property. Thankyou Christine.

Nothing.

The rooms are finished to a very high standard with excellent natural light. It was clean, comfortable and very well maintained. The views are stunning and the facilities (including the Jacuzzi bathrooms) are second to none. Our friendly hosts took care to make our stay a first class trip which it was. We had fresh towels on both days and the beds were made up in time for our return in the evening. A continental breakfast was supplied and refreshed each day. We would definitely recommend staying at Spring Paddocks and we are more than happy to stay again in the future.

I couldn’t find any fault with it.

We stayed at this amazing b&b for 1 night, but we wished we could stay longer. From the moment that we arrived, being greeted by Christine & Andy, to the moment we left, everything was exceptional. The room is cosy, clean, and modern, with all the facilities you need for a comfortable stay. The bathroom is big, and the kitchen is fully equipped. The bed was so comfy. We definitely had a good night sleep. Not to mention the view that you wake up to in the morning, one of the windows looking over the fields. We will definitely come back if ever in the area again

Property was as described - very clean all facilities for a self catering stay with a welcome basket (breakfast and milk). Very comfortable bed and very peaceful.

Not really a negative but you have to pin a number into a key pad to get the car in and out (the owner has 2 dogs although they were never loose whilst we were there)

The host was lovely and friendly. The property had ample parking and was lovely and clean.

It's absolutely not that we didn't like it, the place was lovely. I just didn't realise it was part of the main house. Felt bad as had to walk past the owners private space. They couldn't have been lovelier though and I'm sure they're used to it

Wonderful stay, felt as if we were staying with family. Clean and comfortable studio that we could have lived in. Christine was the perfect host, warm, friendly and informative. Nothing was too much trouble. Wish we could have stayed longer.

The location was just perfect, so peaceful and relaxing. Christine was the perfect host and a really lovely lady . We enjoyed a continental breakfast every morning and had fresh towels.The jacuzzi bath was lovely and a really hot shower. We would definitely recommend and would love to visit again.

We loved everything, nothing to dislike.

Very nice studio in a beautiful location with countryside views. Most comfortable as a solo traveller, nice and quiet with excellent facilties and a nice breakfast tray provided by Christine. Spotlessly clean and every amenity I could wish for. So good I stayed again a week later!
