We had high expectations of this bungalow, from the photos online and we were not disappointed in any way. For a one bedroomed house, it’s very roomy with an extensive lounge and conservatory directly off it (no doorway) which was great as we had many visitors during our week here. A lovely, comfortable bedroom with huge wardrobes meant that we could store away a lot of our stuff. The kitchen is also bigger than it looked in the photos and was pretty well equipped. Everything in the whole place was clean and in good order, although we have a tiny niggle that the dishwasher racks are probably ripe for renewal, but the dishwasher itself worked just fine. The decor throughout was quite modern and of a better standard than you tend to get with rentals which accept dogs, this was much appreciated. The bungalow itself had lovely views and great walks which we couldn’t enjoy in such wet weather but it is not the bungalow’s fault that it rained so much! Being ex-locals ourselves, we knew how well placed it is to access both the A127 and A12, but even we were surprised how rural the location was, although directly off a road we thought we knew quite well! Andy the owner was a pleasure to deal with, he answered messages straightaway but otherwise stayed away so although his house is nearby, our stay was quite private. His dogs come in for comment in another review: all I can say is yes, they did have a bark-off with ours a few times with our two (not sure who won) but they were not pests at all, were completely contained in their own garden, were quiet nearly all the time and certainly at night and personally, I thought they were beautiful and didn’t mind their company at all. I’d have no hesitation in staying here again, it was a very nice base for us to see extended family and had plenty of parking so they could come to us too. Thanks so much, Andy, for enabling us to have a much needed break in your lovely bungalow, it was just what we needed!

Nice modern bungalow which was well appointed set in lovely quite counrtyside spoilt by owners two threatening German shepherd dogs barking a good part of the day. There also was a high pitch noise 24 hours a day which we thing was coming from the owners air conditioning units. The bath is very deep and very difficult to get in and out ofas there were no grab handles. King size bed is too big for the room and we kept knocking our legs getting past it.The bed was hard and the duvet heavy. The thermostat light on the oven was not working so it was difficult to know when it was hot enough to use. We were offended by the choice of pictures on the walls of the bungalow.we thought they were inappropriatefor a rental property. Unfortunatly we will nor be staying here again.

My overall impression of this property is absolutely fantastic. Superb surroundings. Very peaceful and relaxing. Plenty of open spaces for walks etc.excellent facilities and property owner/manager would highly recommend

We stayed here for a few weeks between house sale and purchase and are really pleased we managed to find such a lovely home from home. It is a lovely property, good size and nicely furnished. Great situation, quiet but near to Billericay shops by car. Nice dog walks nearby and we also enjoyed walking round the lake (where we had good fishing) and dogs enjoyed a swim. Andy went above and beyond what could be expected and so helpful. Very quick to respond to questions before we booked it too. Cannot fault a thing. Definitely recommend. Thankyou.

Out of the way accommodation with wonderful view but within few minutes drive of many facilities. Andy could not have been more helpful, the perfect host.
