Very close to the airport – just down a covered walkway from arrivals, after a short walk outside (500 m). Lovely bright reception area, with a nice place to eat the self-service breakfast which was kept well stocked up. Staff couldn’t be more helpful throughout our stay. Special thanks to Faye, who managed to track down the iPad charger I had left and has it waiting for me when I flew back into Stansted at the end of our trip.

Ivy Todd cottage, hotel in Thaxted

Ivy Todd cottage, a property with a garden, is situated in Debden, 6.5 km from Audley End House, 13 km from Stansted Mountfitchet Station, as well as 30 km from University of Cambridge.

Wow what can we say, a perfect spot for an overnight stay. The hosts are absolutely lovely and the property as a whole is stunning. We were worried we would not have time to eat, we need not have. We arrived to find meats, salad, biscuits, chocolate, crisps, croissants, bread, butter, cheese, tea & coffee, milk, treats for our dog and much more. Our dog was treated as importantly as we were and the bed was very comfortable. We would not hesitate in staying here again.

Motts Bed & Breakfast, hotel in Thaxted

Motts Cottage Annex is set in the garden of Motts Cottage in the picturesque village of Stebbing. With free Wi-Fi and free parking, Stansted Airport is just 25 minutes’ drive away.

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.

    Lovely lady on reception.

    Lovely lady on reception. All staff helpful and made me very welcome. Nothing too much trouble. Lovely old building and was great having a bath and shower. Will look to return to explore villages which looked lovely as only booked for airport stay night before a flight at Stansted on this occasion.

    We were not interested in Thaxted.

    We were not interested in Thaxted. The reason for our trip was ro visit Duxford IWM. We went to see the museum on the Friday and the Flying Finale on the Saturday. From the booking.com information Thaxted appeared to be much closer to Duxford that the actuality. We only used the hoted for evening dinner, sleep and breakfast.

    The food in the hotel was not good, my lunch had hair in it, there was food all over the floor that hadn’t been cleaned from breakfast, my breakfast was greasy & some of it was cold & we wait 35 minutes for it to arrive. The staff were very friendly but the bar service was slow. They wanted to charge me an extra £10 for our dog so I pointed out all the issues & they removed the charge

    Thaxted is a wonderful place full of history and lovely people. Go to see Webbs mill, the Guildhall and of course the Parish Church ( which in the past has had and still has a social conscience - when Adam delved and Eve span, who was then the gentleman ? ). Walk around Thaxted and take in the timber framed buildings - you are looking at 14th and 15th Century and later history. Look at those Alms Houses and think of all those people that were able to live there, where otherwise they may not have had a home. You might even get a chance to see the Morris Men - and Women. Gustav Holst was Choir Master at the Church - he wrote the Planet Suite whilst in Thaxted !

    Beautiful quaint medieval Town.

    Beautiful quaint medieval Town. The Church is absolutely beautiful and the local residents so friendly! Utterly refreshing stay in such a happy Town. There were lots going on locally during this Platinum Jubilee Bank Holiday weekend. The Lighting of the Beacon was spectacular! Highly recommend! We ate at the Swan and Parishes both were very good and value for money! I would say ideally a car would be good but lovely walks all around!

    Great location, pretty village.

    Great location, pretty village. Poor cleanliness in the room and bar areas. In need of an upgrade especially outside to the rear of the building. The bathroom was of a poor standard and had not been cleaned properly and the duty manager was called to view the state of the bathroom, the tea cups had not been washed properly, the glass top in the bathroom had previous guests toothpaste marks, the glass doors of the shower was covered in the previous guests shower gel, the plug in the shower had not been cleaned for some time, it was black, mouldy and had lots of hairs in it. Based on this experience I would not stay again in this property, or stay in other Greene King Hotels.

    Stoney Lane is perfect for a short break as a couple. It’s a delightful tiny cottage full of beams and wonky floors, just a few steps from the centre of medieval Thaxted. There is lots to do in the area, and it’s location means that popping out in the locality is very straightforward. The cottage was very clean and comfortable. Communication from the owner was excellent.

    Lovely hotel in the most charming location in the village of Thaxted , Essex . The hotel has a cosy atmosphere and the staff are friendly and welcoming. My room was comfortable and well decorated , just the right size for my needs as I had a early flight the following morning . By the way that's another bonus it's only 20 mins away from the airport.

    Stony Lane is a beautiful old house in the heart of Thaxted. The lane itself is a quiet, traffic-free backwater so it is a perfect place to stay for a visit to Thaxted, or in our case for a wedding in the church, which is at the end of the lane. The house is well equiped, clean, and very comfortable with plenty of space for a short stay.

    What a lovely quaint pub and hotel. The room is perfect for the overnight stay that we needed. We had a couple of drinks in the pub which is a beautiful 1600s old English pub and to top it off the owners could not have been more accommodating. We will definitely be back with the family for something to eat.
