Acorns is a traditional English bed & breakfast offering
a homely and warm welcome, good food and a high standard of accommodation at
sensible rates. Located in a quiet and peaceful cul-de-sac, it is also right on the edge of the open Essex countryside which
offers miles of unspoilt walking and cycling along tranquil and almost completely traffic-free country lanes. Stansted Airport
is only 15 minutes drive away as is also the bustling county town of Chelmsford with its modern and diverse shopping
facilities and photogenic views of the pretty river Chelmer which winds through it and yet from where there is a half-hourly
train service to London with a journey time of just 34 minutes.
Or spend a day soaking up the magic of the historic university city of Cambridge
which is still only 50 minutes drive away. With its equally impressive shopping facilities complemented by its beautiful
architecture, quaint streets and wide variety of cafes and restaurants (many by the river) there is something for everyone.
Tour the famous colleges and their grounds, have lunch at one of the riverside restaurants and in the Spring and Summer, perhaps
spend a couple of hours being punted (or really Impress and do it yourself!) along the river by the beautiful college backs.
Then perhaps sit in on an early evening choral service at Kings College
and experience for yourself the soaring harmonies of the word-renowned Kings
College Choir - or visit the famous Arts Theatre to see a play. You won’t
forget a day in Cambridge if you make the most of it.
Acorns B&B is equally well suited to the business person, its quiet location and (free to use)
broadband connection in every bedroom making it the ideal evening retreat for those who have a busy schedule and need
to be optimally prepared for the next day.
