We wanted to get away for the night before New Year's Eve so, after some research, booked one night's stay at The White Hart. We were not disappointed. After checking in we were shown to our room (in the adjacent building) and given an explanation of where things were etc. The room had a 4 poster bed, which was extremely comfortable, and an ensuite wet room with shower. The room was very clean, well appointed and comfortable. The main hotel building is a period property with a bar and...

10/10 Excellent

The staff could not have done more, the food was amazing, the whole place was spotlessly clean, fridge in the room etc. The shower was the only very minor thing that let it down. We prefer a hand held one to a rose from the top… personal choice. We will certainly revisit when in the area. Great value… the pub/restaurant was LOVELY… a lot of thought has obviously gone into making it such a comfortable place to be. All the tables were spaced out well, with comfortable chairs…. The staffing levels...

The WoolPack Inn

Colchester

10/10 Excellent

The Woolpack is simply the best Inn that I’ve stayed at. Gorgeous building (complete with ghost?). Staff that are genuinely friendly, a pub packed with locals that must be the friendliest in the Country. I was lucky to be there for Thursday night karaoke… honestly I’ve arranged my diary to be there on Thursdays. If you like an authentic pub, great food, superbly comfortable accommodation and a strong community spirit.. (and maybe a ghostly nun).. then this is the best place to stay!
