“Great place for an overnight stay.”

Reviewed June 17, 2013 NEW

Stayed here for a night when I had to stay in Chelmsford for work. It is very quiet and restful - a big comfortable bed with spotless linen, towels, robes, slippers etc. Flat screen tv, fridge and tea and coffee making facilities were all good and the bathroom was simply lovely with central large bath and views over surrounding golf...

“Beautiul”

Reviewed June 14, 2013 NEW

I spent two nights here after my wedding in nearby Newland Hall. We stayed in the Honeymoon suite, which had a beautiful comfy bed and a stunning bathroom. It was very large, and felt very special. The only issue we had were the low beams, which had no warnings, and so my husband and I bumped our heads a fair... More

It was perfect in every way. We were able to spend our precious time together in the most serene and beautiful setting. The Cottage decor,... More

“The cherry on the top!”

Reviewed May 16, 2013

We got married on Saturday 4 May 2013. We had a small informal reception for 10 people held in the "Trophy Room" The food was amazing. The staff couldn't be more helpful but were also not fussing so created a very relaxed atmosphere. When the families departed we retreated to the Hazel Suite - and wow! Huge room, huge bed,... More

The Channels team love to receive a good review but never more so than following a wedding and we should like to congratulate you both and wish you a long and very happy life together. Simon Larner More

“Johnson Wedding Party”

Reviewed April 12, 2013

Thank you for fantastic venue, rooms and staff. It is very difficult finding a suitable venue for our large group of family and friends. As you can imagine it was difficult to organise but with the amenable staff it was stress free. Thank you very much.

To hear nice things about the Lodge and its facilities is very encouraging but I was especially pleased that, due to our team, you had found that making arrangements for a large party had proved to be 'stress free' since this is always our aim. Simon Larner More
