Vacation rentals with outdoor seating in River Stour

This was my first booking with Airbnb so I didnt really know what to expect but Mel has certainly set the standard. She is a friendly, helpful, honest, and incredibly responsive host. The house was exactly as described and the quiet location was perfect for us. We'll definitely stay again when we return to Mersea Island, which was beautiful too!

Lovely warm house, with easy instructions before arrival. There were three double bedrooms which were all comfortable. Large kitchen and the garden was enjoyed by the children. The house was great for the family and a short drive to city centre. We enjoyed the local parks. The shower was lovely! The bedroom TV did not work - not an issue for us but just for others who may have expected it. Just not tuned in.

Had a fantastic stay. The cottage was just like a home from home. The garden like something straight from the secret garden book! Wanda was extremely welcoming of our dogs! Would highly recommend

Quiet location, about 20mins walk into the city centre. Plenty of space, great for the family and hot water for the shower! Space was exactly what was needed for a quick weekend away. Parking a little tricky as the road is narrow with lots of cars parked on both sides but we could find parking for all the cars.

Our group of 16 ladies stayed at Luke's and it was perfect! It had everything we needed to fit/seat/cook/sleep us all comfortably, with beautiful surroundings and the added bonus of a gorgeous hot tub overlooking the fields. Luke was great at answering questions we had in the lead up to our stay and was fast to reply. I would definitely recommend staying here to anyone. Thank you Luke!

The cottage is really lovely, peaceful and quiet. It is very comfortable and really clean, with good amenities. It is by the church which gives a lovely view, and is very close to the town centre with a good variety of good restaurants. I can especially recommend Meze Grill Turkish Restaurant - booking is recommended, certainly at weekends when we went. All in all, Hermione's cottage is a lovely place to stay, and recommended.

nice home and a great host

Great place to stay, Linda wzs able to update the changes we needed straight away, and responded immediately. The lads were impressed with accommodation, it was very homely.

Good accommodation in a beautiful area, very quiet, perfect for a " getaway." Accommodation was very clean.

Lovely unique space, perfect for a weekend stay. Great hosting by Mark who was very welcoming.

We enjoyed our second stay at Helens apartment, fantastic property very well equipped with everything you need and more , very good location and Helen is a very responsive , friendly and helpful host. Thank you

I had an amazing stay at Maxine's place. Everything was very clean and the kitchen was very well equipped. Location of the place is good, and communication with the host was smooth. Overall it was great!

Teresa was very helpful and friendly. The accommodation is small but Teresa has thought of everything to make the stay comfortable. Nice surprise to have a great continental breakfast. Also good to have a Miller and Carter restaurant opposite. Good wi-fi. Quiet. Would definitely recommend this studio flat. Location is good for access to Ipswich and A12/A14. Teresa is definitely a superhost.

This Airbnb was perfect for a few days when had a few things to do around London. It had parking outside for one car. It was private, cozy and warm. I would stay again

A very peaceful and tranquil place to stay overlooking open countryside. Beautiful walks from the doorstep. Well equipped kitchen with a great selection of books and DVDs for a quiet evening in. plenty of tea/coffee/milk etc and lovely clean towels and bedding. Great resource of things to do with maps on your doorstep and a-joining villages. The accommodation was spotless and very comfortable. Laurie and Lucy are very friendly. Highly recommended

We had a great stay, the accommodation had everything you need and was very clean and warm, there was also some provisions left for breakfast. Set in a lovely location, we did not get to meet Viv but Richard was very nice and helpful. Will definitely go back, thank you for a lovely stay.

Sam’s place is at a fantastic location with everything within a short walk. The bed was probably the comfiest I have ever slept in. The place was spacious and stylish and had everything we needed. Would stay again and would recommend!

This is a little gem. The pics don’t do it justice. The garden is incredible and the host is delightful, aswell as the chickens, fish, Betsy, Archie and Aggy (dogs). Wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this beautiful abode.

Had a great stay at Katy’s space. Everything was clean, comfortable and matched the description and we enjoyed the goodies Katy stocked the kitchen with to get us going! Great location - very close to everything we needed. If I was ever in Walton or Essex again would be happy to stay again. Communicating with Katy was very easy and she was happy to help with any questions!

Lovely 2 nights at The Annex. Really sweet, well equipped home from home and a gorgeous happy golden retriever next door! We were welcomed with treats for our dog and hotcross buns with butter. On the grounds of the air museum which was a huge bonus as we planned to visit. Will definitely stay again, thanks so much!

This was our second stay here and we love how peaceful and relaxing it is. Perfect getaway from the stresses of day to day life.

Absolutely would recommend this place. Extras in welcome package meant I did not have to shop immediately. Large shops nearby. Within walking distance to town centre. Beautiful scenery just outside flat. Always replied promptly to messages.

We had a wonderful long Easter weekend at this apartment, booked easily even though it was very last minute due to being let down by another owner. Thank you to Caroline for being so helpful and super responsive. The location is perfect to explore Felixstowe on foot and it’s handy having private off-road parking. We played mini-golf, ate out at some great spots, used the huge park down the road, went to the arcades on the pier and swam at the leisure centre just across the road. The space is beautiful, spacious, clean and we had everything that we needed, and more. Clear instructions and helpful information on the pre-arrival details too. Our daughters didn’t want to leave! We’d love to return again.

“This is our third stay at Carol’s and, as always, we were very happy. The place is super clean, comfortable, and Carol is very responsive host. Highly recommended!”
