Guestbook & Awards

Take a look at some of our visitor comments below...

The Youngs

As we left the Farm on Sunday eve, we didn't get chance to say a proper thank you for our stay at Gladwins, we just wanted to add our appreciation and thanks for a great stay in Constable and Gainsborough Cottages. 
We especially enjoyed your "Tour" around the animals, feeding the chickens, pigs, sheep and goats, and even the horses.  You were very patient, and made the children so welcome. 
We too loved the pool, hot tub, and on Sunday when the weather wasn't so good, we spent the morning in the Games Room, which was great, for all ages!!!
In all, we had a great weekend, and we very much look forward to our next stay.

Jo & Kev Cook

The Bonds

I just wanted to write a quick email to say what a fab time we had at Gladwins and we cannot wait to come back. The kids haven't stopped talking about it and for a family who are pretty well travelled, we thought it was by far the best cottage experience we have had!!!!  You made us feel so welcome, provided everything we needed (except sleep) and were great with the boys.

Keep us up to date with any special offers and hopefully we will be able to come back in the near future.

Thanks again

Dani, Lawrence, Joshy, Louie, Casey and Zac

The Talbot Family

we all thoroughly enjoyed staying in the Gainsborough Cottage on your farm.  We particularly enjoyed seeing a christmas tree lite up, a lovely bottle of wine, the girls loved the chocolate snowmen an my husband devoured a mince pie on our arrival!  The special touches were very much appreciated. 
 
We will certainly be contacting you again when we next visit family in and around Colchester.
 
Thank you very much for a memorable stay.
 
We wish you and your family a happy new year with great success in your new life and business.
 
Many thanks

The Latham Party

I would like to thank you so much for such an amazing weekend break - I'm sorry that I was not able to stay on the extra night! Your facilities are truly outstanding with things on offer to cater for all ages. The accomodation itself is of such high standards and the setting is wonderful. Even the poor weather didn't hamper things!
 
The 40th anniversary celebrations for my parents couldn't have gone better and I know that they have loved every minute of it.

The Burnett Family

Our stay Gladwins Farm ranks as our best ever family holiday. The accommodation was wonderful and the setting just incredible. I know that our two-year-old loved every minute of his stay - from riding on the tractor to feeding the animals and collecting the eggs. The adventure playground and the pool were absolutely fantastic and provided hours of entertainment. My husband and I also had great massages from Yana, who is just fantastic. We look forward to coming back again next year.
