Again, Witham View proved an excellent and comfortable base with everything we needed. Easy to communicate with the owner if you need to and a friendly local environment. For dog owners, the walking options available from the bungalow are fantastic, our springer gave it a 5* rating!

We were bowled over by this lovely warm bungalow which kept us warm and cosy during some very cold and wet weather. Itâs been decorated beautifully and the facilities are excellent, from a superb shower to the Alexa controlled lighting! The enclosed garden was a boon for our dog too, as was the excellent walking on the nearby heath (he still hasnât caught a duck). Weâll definitely be back

Thoughtful touches like low level LED lights that come on when you enter the bathroom, so you don't disturb your partner. And convenient 'Alexa' controlled lights in the very spacious living/kitchen/diner area, so you don't have to walk to the switch. And great local shops a short, level walk away. Highly recommend.
