Loved this cottage and especially the quaintness and special touches. Will definitely be back.

This is the most gorgeous quaint cottage with a lovely garden on the side, perfect for us and our dogs! We loved the little extra touches like quality local cheese, olives, and sparkling rose, and being able to go down the nostalgia road with the record player! The beds were comfortable with linen and blankets. I did get a shock when I found out there was no wifi as I needed to download a document, but managed to do that on my phone. It would have been nice to use it to get Netflix when the TV was full of Carols and replays. Another little issue was that the dining table was extremely wobbly, so much so we could not eat on it, so pretty as it is, it either needs replacing or fixing. No biggie though! We really loved the cottage and would heartily recommend it to anyone needing a romantic break in the countryside!

The accommodation was excellent and as described. Maldon is a great spot to spend some time. This place comes highly recommended.

We had a lovely time at the Shopkeeper's Quarters. The house is charming, cosy and filled with interesting antiques and trinkets. We had everything we needed - plenty of firewood, towels, luxurious bathroom products, a great selection of tea and a wonderfully generous welcome hamper. The beds were very comfortable with beautiful linen sheets in fact all the soft furnishings made the house feel welcoming and cosy. It's clear that a lot of thought and care has gone into decorating and outfitting the house to make it a very pleasant and comfortable stay. The yard is spacious and attractive too, especially on a sunny afternoon. We were able to bring our cat Roy with us, and he quickly settled into life at the Shopkeeper's Quarters, and we found it a very pet-friendly place to stay. The cottage is also only a short walk from Maldon's main street. Overall, we would thoroughly recommend the Quarters to anyone looking to stay in Maldon.

We spent nearly a week at the Shopkeepers and we could not have imagined a more wonderful place to spend our Christmas holiday. The shade of the big beautiful Elm Tree in the garden was just magically, offering such cool shade even on those 30'C+ days when you'd usually hide inside. If felt incredible to be able to spend time just reading on a blanket and enjoy the summer without fear of overheating or burning. The house itself was equally as wonderful, we loved preparing meals in the airy and bright kitchen, and spent our evenings relaxing by listening to records and feasting on the visual delights the interior offered. We would recommend this little lovely little oasis to anyone, and we will most definitely be back! Thank you!

This property is amazingly well crafted. The attention to detail for each room impeccable. A modern clean bathroom, fully equipped kitchen, the lounge focused around the log fire and comfortable bedrooms. The house is full of curiosities and wonderfully restored furniture as well as all mod cons (discreetly placed so they don't ruin the feel). The back yard is picture postcard beautiful and with the steam train rail line just over the back fence (don't worry, only goes during the day and is very quiet), it has something for everyone. We WILL BE BACK!
