月桂飯店

幾個月前我曾在這裡住過，經過深思熟慮後，我感到有責任留下這篇評論——即使只是為了警告其他人。無論什麼情況下我都不會建議住在這裡。 從我到達的那一刻起，所謂的「主人」就營造了一種非常不舒服的氛圍，讓我真的很難放鬆。他們的態度很冷淡，近乎敵意，而且充斥著不必要的規則，讓我感覺自己更像是一個不受歡迎的入侵者，而不是一個付費的客人。 早餐？在我要求的時候還沒有。相反，他們給了我一杯優格——但嚴格指示我不能在房間裡吃它。顯然，他們完全沒有考慮到客人的舒適度。 入住過程簡直是居高臨下——對房間每個微小的細節進行冗長的說教：哪些開關可以使用，哪些是禁止使用的，不要觸碰百葉窗，不要調節暖氣，淋浴的工作原理是這樣的（好像我以前從來沒見過一樣）。這不是款待；這是一次控制練習。整件事情不像是我入住的介紹，更像是對房子本身的無可忍受的吹噓，而我對此完全不感興趣。最糟糕的是？這種感覺就像主人隨時都可能出現來執行他們嚴厲的、無趣的規則。這讓人感到壓抑。我住過很多地方，從來沒有感到如此不受歡迎或受到限制。 我再強調一下：不要住在這裡。不惜一切代價避免。

Laurel's BnB is an absolute gem! From the cozy ambiance to the impeccable hospitality, every moment spent there feels like a warm embrace. Laurel's attention to detail and genuine care for her guests truly shine through in every aspect of the experience. It's not just a place to stay; it's a haven of comfort and charm that leaves you feeling refreshed and rejuvenated. Thank you, Laurel, for creating such a delightful retreat!

We spent 6 amazing nights in Laurels under the loving care of Trish and Stan❤️ We were attending a wedding in Chelmsford and it was a very good option. We felt super comfortable since the first minute and the communication leading up to the arrival was top notch. You basically stay at their beautiful home in super comfortable rooms. As this is their home the attention to the detail is excellent. Room is cleaned everyday. Every morning Trish makes you delicious, fresh and homemade breakfast served to your liking. Stan was always on call for us to drive us around with very good prices. We honestly felt like we were visiting our parents house we were at home away from home. We really didn't want to leave :( will definitely visit again! Also a huge plus they have a super cute kitty Thank you so much for everything!

A nice welcome to this wonderful B & B/guest house set in beautiful surroundings. The accommodation was very clean & a lot of attention to detail. A very comfortable bed with excellent quality mattress! Stan & Trish put on & cooked us a delicious breakfast all sourced locally that set us up for the day! Nothing was too much trouble! Good arrangements for guests wanting to come home a little later in the evening (we visited a friend locally & got chatting away!) Would definitely recommend & would stay here again, Thank you both! 🙏😊

Our home from home stay We booked the laurels via my work employee benefits portal but had a look at a few reviews prior to visiting. Let me tell you how relaxing and quiet this stay was. The owner Stan met us at the door when we arrived, was friendly and sociable. The house was immaculate and extremely well presented. Guests have the ability to use the main lounge and a tasty breakfast is served in the morning in the dining room. There was a great selection of food and it was fresh and tasty and cooked to our preference. Our room was the luxury deluxe double and was very comfortable and clean with some little luxury additions of body wash and lotion ( and essentials for the ladies ) The queen bed and pillows enable a lovely deep sleep. The en-suite was a wet room and hot water on tap with some super soft bath towels. I had three showers and hot water available at each time. The brilliant furnishings and home comforts of the room added to the relaxing stay. However I must comment on the host’s Stan and Tricia. They made our stay all the more enjoyable their obvious high standards and pride of their BnB is extremely evident and is the main reason we will be back again in the future. They are extremely communicative and I felt they were available during our stay for anything we needed. We had struggled to get a taxi due to the village location and Stan advised us he would have fetched us. ( next time we will arrange this, Thanks Stan ) The little added touch of the purified water in the decanter in the fridge and the tray of biscuits and selections of tea and coffee in our room felt like a luxury. The Dyson fan was a great addition during a warm evening. The Laurels is a lovely beautifully decorated and well situated place to stay . If you are looking for a home from home break then look no further than the Laurels because it has all you need. I would highly recommend it. See you again soon Tricia and Stan. Ari and James

This establishment is definitely a 5☆ stay. Stan &Tricia couldn't have been more welcoming to us,from the moment I booked on the phone with Tricia, to arriving & meeting Stan. The house is beautiful, and quite rightly so they are very proud of what they have built together. The bedroom was beautiful, & the best sleep in a lovely bed. A beautifully cooked breakfast was prepared in the kitchen while the hosts chatted to us throughout . A lovely experience all on all. Also Stan provides a taxi service which is very reasonable for his guests. Thank you. All in all a brilliant stay,which we cannot praise enough. Stan and Tricia we will be back if you'll have us. Dave,Val and Bob.
