Lovely stay at The White Hart Coggeshall

We’ve just had a lovely one night stay at The White Hart in Coggeshall. The inn is cosy and the room was clean and spacious. We were able to find a parking space in the small car park at the rear of the inn. The staff were all really friendly and helpful. We had an evening meal and breakfast both of which were plentiful and delicious. If in the area again we would definitely stay here again.

Staff were so lovely, cannot fault them at all. Easy self parking and the pub restaurant looked lovely. The rooms however, so tired. Stayed one night for a wedding, was fine for this but just invest some money in it. Damp stains all over walls, tiny bath/shower with cheap curtain, carpet was filthy and had holes all over it, basically threadbare... Bed was so uncomfortable. Sorry to leave this bad review because it's a gorgeous historic building but it's not being made the most of!!

Nice Pub Hotel

Nice old pub with hotel accommodation. Used for the nearby Houchins Wedding Venue. Bedroom comfortable. Shower a squeeze if you are taller than 6ft, but the trade off is the heritage of the building. Easy parking at rear.

Nice quirky place.

Overall, really happy with our stay, here. I like olde worlde places and this place is older than Paul McCartney… Lovely staff, although possibly a little short staffed, because some seem run off their feet & a little wait to check in. Meal was good, again, nice staff. The shower in the room, whilst possibly matching the age of the building, was a nightmare to use. Scolding water and the most confusing combination of levers & twisty taps I have ever encountered. So I left very clean… but some info on how it should work would be good. Lovely bed, super comfy, so a good stay, all in all.
