    Thoroughly enjoyed staying at the single room with cooling fan, comfortable bed, for instance. The hotel staff was nice, they all greeted us. Great location, we were short walk to Chelmsford, the theatre, and a slope.

    I enjoyed a cozy stay in the Twin Room with Bath at the Ship. Comfy beds and clean facilities made my visit enjoyable, though I found the early check-out a bit inconvenient. The vibrant atmosphere in the pub below added to the experience

    Couple's weekend getaway

    We had a King room that was clean and modern, huge smart tv with complimentary tea, coffee and bottled water available. The pub downstairs was cozy and inviting, we checked in late so we missed food but the menu looked fantastic!

    It wasn't exactly cheap but still acceptable for the quality we received.

    We explored Warren Golf Club and enjoyed some fun at Leez Priory. The food was solid and reasonably priced, and the staff were super friendly. Just a heads up, it can get pretty lively, especially during big games, made for a fun atmosphere.
