Cottage holiday rentals in Saffron Walden

We had a lovely stay. House was as described, clean and had all the things we needed. Would recommend to friends and family.

The White Cottage is a truly magical experience, and combined with Sally’s as the perfect host, we came away from our short break with memories that will last a lifetime. The location is breathtakingly peaceful. A garden within a garden set in landscape where time has good still. The stream that runs through garden is a playground for wildlife and you’ll be sharing your breakfast with ducks and moorhens. If you want a break oozing peace and quiet, a chance to unwind, and forget the day to day life the white cottage has it spades. Sally is a delightful host. Nothing is too much trouble. You arrive as a guest and leave as a friend. We loved it

The Old Farmhouse was one of the best equipped Airbnbs that we have ever stayed in. We particularly loved the hot tub and the four ponies/donkeys. Although you can walk around the fields surrounding the house, you have to drive to Finchingfield for food and drink etc. We had a Sainsbury’s supermarket delivery which worked well.

This was my 70th birthday celebration with my two children, partners, 7 month-old granddaughter and dog! It was the most perfect location . Three excellent bedrooms and bathrooms served us so well! Beds very comfortable and living space easily spacious enough! All the facilities were top notch! The welcome basket was simply brimming with goodies which were fully appreciated. A delicious birthday cake was also there - so thoughtful of the hosts! I cannot praise or recommend this venue highly enough. We didn’t have too much time to visit the local area but Finchingfield was delightful and Thaxted itself interestingly unspoiled. Thank you Karen for making this occasion so special . We hope to revisit some time in the future!

Thank you for such a wonderful stay. A very relaxing cottage with lots of things to do around. Perfect for a relaxing weekend where you don’t need to leave the place. The cottage was beautiful and incredibly clean. We will definitely return.

Absolutely beautiful place to visit. Staff were really nice and friendly and helpful. Will definitely be visiting again thanks to Debbie Dan and Kit

A fabulous, well equipped home with a great view and visiting wildlife - pheasants, hares and swallows. Easy walking distance to Suffolk Barn for our family wedding and short drive to Bury St Edmunds. Very comfortable beds, fluffy towels and calming colour scheme. Extremely well equipped kitchen and generous welcome provisions made it easy to feel straight at home. We would love to come back to explore the local area and spend more time taking in the view and relaxing in the tub. Thank you to our hosts who were so accommodating and welcoming.

Outstanding hosts. We were super happy to stay with them for a second time! The welcome basket was a really thoughtful gesture and the extra touches like robes and slippers were very helpful.

What a beautiful little cottage, it was close to town easy to walk everywhere locally. Lots of space for 3 of us a lovely box of biscuits left by host which was a lovely surprise. Chloe was very responsive if we messaged her, a great host.

We loved this place. Plenty of room, lovely garden and patio area. Beds were comfortable and the kitchen well kitted out. Great location for exploring the local area. We appreciated the lovely welcome pack. Thanks for a great stay.

This was our second time in Lavenham and our second stay at Esther’s. The house is easy to find (parking outside the front door if available) and get access to. The house is clean, well furnished and had most, if not all of everything extra we wanted. Over the weekend that included a BBQ, fan, clothes horse and some biscuits! Esther is very responsive and accommodating, a great host.

We spent most of our time hiking, but had a few quality hours enjoying a nice relaxing evening afterwards. the house suited us perfectly. we would happily recommend. we couldn't locate the cutlery in the recess draw, but not a big deal

A very enjoyable stay indeed. The accommodation provided everything we needed and our host was always responsive. The bed linen was soft and the beds very comfortable indeed. We should be happy to recommend Constable Court to future guests.

Thank you so much for giving Sandra and me the experience of staying at 'Chisolms', your beautiful cottage attached to your family home; located in magnificent grounds. The guest book comments are testament to how much the previous guests enjoyed their stay.

We have been using Airbnb for many years and this is definitely the best experience of being hosted we have had for YEARS. Carter's Yard embodies the spirit of what staying in a b&b in England really means - with the privacy of enjoying the property to yourselves. We felt hosted! Butter and milk in the kitchen. Plenty of cleaning items and dishwasher tablets. A welcome basket of breakfast items. Beautiful linen on the extremely comfortable beds. A lovely lounge with supplies for the log burner. Flannels and plenty of towels in the bathroom... Everything was so intentional and thought through. We would love to stay here again, it is so peaceful, so clean and so very welcoming. 11/10 for the cottage and 12/10 to Rebecca and her immaculate hostess vibes. Worth every - extremely reasonable - penny!!

A wonderful stay at Marc’s place in Grafham. It’s a great location with local amenities and lovely places to walk. The lodge is surrounded by trees and really peaceful. We hope to return!

Great hosts, very friendly. Very pretty location, we were able to walk in the large garden and enjoy the views. Cottage was very well equipped, fresh milk, bread and eggs left for us, even supplied tea, coffee and cooking condiments. Soaps and washing powder also supplied. Very comfortable beds, all towels supplied. The only let down was the wifi connection which kept dropping even after resetting the router numerous times. Was also not always able to use 4G as the property was quite remote. Otherwise was lovely, highly recommend their property.

Perfect place for our family of 4 when visiting friends locally. No 77 was fully equipped with everything we needed. Tea coffee milk in the fridge all provided and COOP near by for a loaf of bread. Parking not a problem at all. We would love to return.

Great place, very comfortable and clean. Would stop here again

Just had a fantastic 2 night stay at this little gem of a place . Beautiful quiet and very peaceful. Felt very relaxed. Neil was a great host . And also the lovely sparkling wine .which went down very well . Would definitely come back for another stay.

Really lovely stay very spacious for 4 people. Amanda was very helpful and quick to respond, would be happy to stay again. Thank You

I had an amazing stay! The place was spotless, stylish, and exactly as described—if not better. The host was incredibly responsive, friendly, and made check-in a breeze. The location was perfect: close to everything but still peaceful and quiet at night. I especially appreciated the little thoughtful touches throughout the home that made it feel extra welcoming. I’d definitely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone visiting the area!

The Annex is lovely, quirky, spacious and comfortable. The garden was great for the dogs too and we were all made to feel very welcome. We will revisit soon, thanks for being such great hosts. :0)

Orchard Cottage is set in a stunning & quiet location and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The showers & beds were superb and we found it a perfect location for exploring the area.
