“Comfortable and convenient.”
A really nice place, very comfortable with all of the amenities, including a hot tub (which we didn't use on this occasion). Conveniently placed with on-street parking. A few minutes walk from the local sites, beach and local hostelries. We rather enjoyed the roof terrace, especially at the end of the day, very nice. Would most definitely use them again.

“Hot tub was the best thing about this place”
We stayed here for 4 days its a nice little place which has everything you need us tv had netflix and prime which was a bonus. The hot tub was the reason we booked as my husband loves them and we weren't disappointed it was fab we used every day. The negatives are the banisters on stairwell are loose and steps steep, the bed was quite uncomfortable and very creaky every time you moved which woke you up, the shower room was nice but the shower went hot and cold permanently which was a nightmare. With regards to the area it is very quiet with not really anything going on there are a couple of nice pubs to eat within walking distance but that's it really. It's quite a run down area harwich with not alot going for it we would not return to harwich for a holiday. Paul the owner was very accommodating and was there at any time to help if there were any issues.

Response from the owner Hi Donna, so sorry that you was not completely satisfied with your stay at Bakehouse, glad you was pleased with the main features of the accommodation. The Bakehouse is a Grade 2 listed Victorian building and its typical of its period, with if you are not used to it the stairs may appear steeper than a modern design, unfortunately we have to live with them. The shower can be sensitive however not had any other negative feedback since. The mattress was a recent purchase and we went for mid to firm to be suitable for most people. Amidst the Covid period a lot of the venues and attractions was only running a basic level of service however Old Town living is not for everyone, but everyone who lives here loves it and as can been seen on many of the other guest reviews, they said they had a lovely time in the Old Town. If you decide to visit North Essex we have other properties with various attractions that I could give you a good deal to sweeten the issues.

“a great base from which to explore”
I used the property as a base to explore Essex for our honeymoon. We were able to visit Constable country in Dedham Vale and seaside resorts like Clacton and have a secure, safe base - WITH A HOT TUB!!! - to return to, with convenient parking. The owner Paul was very helpful and friendly and we are trying to think of excuses to return!

“Superior”
The bake house is perfectly located, clean, well equipped and very comfy. It has everything one needs to relax, cook, sleep or watch telly. There are many pubs and some restaurants within a 5 minute walk, even more about a 15 minute walk away. A bus stop is around the corner and as far as I can tell there is always a parking space in front of the door. I can really recommend it!

“Lovely bijou pad in Old Harwich”
Old Harwich is an interesting own on the up. The Bakehouse is an ideal retreat to stay, well equipped and comfortable. Try the Alma Pub and the Beacon Hill Fort has recently opened to the public
