Excellent break in tricky covid times
Superbly spacious apartment with everything you need for an enjoyable stay in historic Harwich. Location is excellent, being only a short distance from the Ha'Penny Pier, The Pier restaurant and all the cute little pubs. The apartment was a bit cold as all the electric heaters were only set on 18 degrees and it took hours to get warm because of the high ceilings but we got nice & cosy eventually. The heaters were new and the decor hadn't been made good where the old storage heaters came out but no doubt this is a work in progress and will soon be sorted. Also, they were supplied by trailing extension leads rather than wired in but again I expect this is temporary. It's a shame that the architectural splendour of the front facade of the building isn't matched in the interior which has a "faded glory" feel about it with ripped carpets and plastic flowers. We were worried also about the apartment's sash windows which were rotten on the outside and we feared the window cleaning contractors who came during our stay might knock bits off with their long poles. However, none of these things affected our wedding anniversary break that was most enjoyable in this well equipped roomy apartment.

Excellent place to stay.
Spacious, well-equipped flat in a good location. Just a few mishaps - the TV reception kept going off, several pictures fell off the wall and the morning we were leaving the water had gone off. Otherwise a very enjoyable, comfortable stay.

Perfect location to explore Harwich and Felixstowe
We found our stay in this first floor apartment very comfortable, with a cosy lounge and well equipped kitchen. The master bedroom is good size and there is a lift too if you had someone who could not negotiate the stairs. Bathroom space is a bit tight but very manageable for a long weekend. We would recommend it ! :-) Sita S
