Smoking friendly vacation rentals in River Stour

Really lovely spot. Travelled to visit Colchester and Dedham Vale. Penny and her husband made my dad and I feel at home in this pretty corner of Essex as we stayed in their open plan barn (lower floor). We were greeted upon arrival despite hold-ups meaning we arrived late and Penny showed us round. Their estate has a beautiful walk around which we made the most of and Penny recommended a number of spots to visit - we enjoyed a walk in a nearby wood. The room was light and comfortable, both beds were more than adequate and I enjoyed the ensemble of paintings and ornaments on display - it felt like a little home for a few days. Would recommend to a friend.

Had a fabulous week exploring Ipswich and Suffolk; this is a great base from which to visit a multitude of places and so much variety from Jimmy's Farm to World War 2 collections to falconry and kayaking to Saxon and medieval history; the furthest we drove was 40 miles. Excellent apartment with interesting views and Kie was a superb host - he met us at the apartment and also messaged during the week to check that everything was ok. Very happy to recommend this apartment and will definitely be visiting again in the future.

I had an incredible stay with Elaine as my host! From the moment I arrived, she made me feel completely at home. Her attention to detail and thoughtfulness ensured that everything was perfect throughout my week-long stay. The space was spotless, beautifully maintained, and incredibly cozy. Elaine went above and beyond to make sure I had everything I needed and was always available for any questions or assistance. She is an exceptional host who genuinely cares about her guests!

Me and my partner stayed here for one night to celebrate his birthday and we had a lovely time! The studio was a great size to accommodate us both. We ate at the restaurant/bar/pub adjoined to it and had great food and service there too. They helped us with the checking in and turning on the heating - everything was sorted instantly for us. A lovely place for a weekend get away and would definitely recommend as well as return! :)

excellent property, excellent host 👌

Great apartment with clear instructions for check in, which was flexible.

words cannot describe how fabulous this property is and how amazing Angie the host was, it was spotless, clean, had everything you could possibly want in a property. The hot tub was our highlight and the generous booze that was left for us to drink. The bedrooms were styled to perfection and everything was just lovely. We went to celebrate for 2 birthdays and we've made memories that we will never forget. we can't wait to return!

Very comfortable, well equipped caravan. Travel cot easy to put in largest bedroom. Good amenities, bonus of small bath ideal for babies. Lovely decking area which catches the sun and clear easy instructions for access. Will be booking again!

We had a great stay at Wash Farmhouse. The space was great and exactly what we needed. The house was clean and really nicely finished. Instructions and amenities were well explained and overall we had a really lovely time. Well worth booking and going too.

Gorgeous property, exactly matching the description & photos. Super cosy with fantastic mid century features and furniture which we loved! The attention to detail was incredible, and was greatly appreciated. Everything was absolutely spotless, and there were lots of spare towels & duvets etc just in case. This was our first experience of Air B&B and we couldn’t have asked for a better introduction! Huge Congrats Paul on creating such a fabulous, welcoming place for people to stay.

Great location for the Racecourse and the local Pub's too

Great accommodation in great condition, with best mattress i have slept on away from home. Accommodation in a great location within a peaceful setting but close enough to local amenities and including restaurants. Hosts very welcoming and always quick in communication.

We had a lovely weekend getaway here. The house was comfy and spacious. I eould recommend for a group booking. It is right on the main road and guests who slept that side of the building commented that it could be a bit noisy at times. If you plan to book a shopping delivery in advance, message the host for the name of the place, our driver knocked at the neighbours house.
