We stayed on 9th May en route to Suffolk having looked at tripadvisor for places in the area. Although they are self assessed at 4 star, definitely 5 star standard with very good en-suite room including everything you`d normally expect and a decanter of sherry, ground coffee, home made biscuits, dressing gowns, good toiletries etc., very comfortable bed and most...

The room and bathroom where spacious and clean. Breakfast was tasty and plentiful and the host where helpful with tips for outings and dining. All you’d expect of a good B&B. As an extra plus I would mention the very large wardrobe, the good warm shower, the nice large towels and a writing desk you can actually use. The rather... More

Two colleagues needed a B and B for one night in Colchester area. The reviews for Timbers, coupled with very reasonable costs made the Timbers a good option. We were not disappointed! From the moment of arrival Angela and Alan could not have been more hospitable and helpful. We each had single occupancy of a room, one with en-suite, the... More

We thought we would visit Colchester for an overnight stay as we hadn't been for a while and I was drawn to this B&B by the reviews which sounded too good to be true. What I am looking for in a B&B is a warm welcome, clean room with en suite and a comfy bed followed by an excellent breakfast.... More

Stayed here one night and it was just like staying at home. If this was a hotel it would be 5 Star. Very friendly people, superb room, very clean and comfortable and in a very quiet area. The breakfast was amazing ! Thank you for my very welcoming stay hope to see you again soon.

A fabulous place to stay, every creature comfort is catered for. From the moment we arrived Angela and Alan made us feel at home. We were shown to our room which was spotlessly clean as was the en-suite, there were also lovely fluffy dressing gowns, tea/coffee making facilities and home baked biscuits, fresh fruit and Sherry. Angela asked if we... More

Lovely b+b in a nice quiet location on the outskirts of Colchester. Alan's breakfast are monumental and really well cooked. Spotlessly clean and the room we had was nice with a king sized bed and shower room. Definitely will return here.
