The Poolhouse

This was the second time staying at the Poolhouse - and was as wonderful as the first. It's not just staying away, it becomes our wee home; from the wonderful comfy bed (waking to bird song) to the cosy relaxing lounge sipping the provided red wine alongside our own provided cheese kept in the provided fridge; all absolutely wonderful. Arrived again to Jamie's smile and warm welcome. This man is a gem; not only with his welcomes but his local knowledge; Thanks Jamie. Beautiful heart-relaxing views from every window. Again, sad to leave, but in the words of Arnie; we'll be back.

We have stayed twice at the Poolhouse this year and both occasions could not have been better. The accommodation is in beautiful, quiet and private surrounds and is in the perfect location to enjoy the pleasures of Maldon. The cottage is immaculate and well equipped for a self sufficient stay, or to use as a base as you explore the culinary delights of this beautiful town with everything in walking distance. You can also venture further afield to enjoy beautiful vineyards or visit the other quaint and beautiful towns that are close by. The mezzanine bedroom is very comfortable with a perfectly positioned window to ensure that you can wake to a stunning sunrise, and there are beautiful, sunny 'nooks' where you can relax with a book or a glass of wine if you just want to laze the day away. The fireplace is also there to cosy up to should the weather be chilly. To top it off, there are cold beers and a bottle of red, with snacks, awaiting you on arrival to help you settle in. There is nothing that you could want for while staying at the Poolhouse! We can't recommend it highly enough.

There is nothing about this property that will leave you wanting. The host is amazing. Perfection at it’s best. Very private. Absolutely above standard comfortable private accommodation. Beautifully clean cottage. Pristine clean solar heated swimming pool. Was just divine. Will be returning very soon.

We've just got home after 3 nights at the pool house and after seeing the photos onscreen Kate's holding me back from grabbing the car keys and zooming off back in the direction of Maldon. Folks you won't have any trouble finding this place as Jamie met us the front and we just couldn't miss his huge welcoming smile. Everything is thought of, and provided in an elegant country fashion, soooo cosy, classically comfy and complete carefree. The owners provided more than you'd expect - tantalising treats to welcome, scrrrrrumptious posh towels to snuggle in after using the luxuriating toiletries, and a bed to dream in until the local birdlife awakes from the window. The owners are totally discrete but when you do bump into them (in the street in Maldon) they joyfully ensure you have all you need. And offer more. What a wonderful world, is the pool house. Plus - Jamie and Maldon Getaways get it ALL right, from booking to greeting to anything else. Very professional. Now.... where's those car keys again?......

The Poolhouse is just a beautiful place to stay. It is private and the space is immaculate with lots of luxurious personal touches. We very much enjoyed our stay and the beautiful town of Maldon. We even enjoyed a dip in the pool. We would highly recommend.
