I liked the cleanliness, the comfy bed, breakfast was amazing,...and the fire doors all shut soooo quietly....😊. So compared to a lots of other hotels it was quiet ! Central location. Short walk to several different cuisines. Nice staff... Loved it.

My wife and I stayed at this family-run hotel for two nights (Friday and Saturday nights).We enjoyed a very generous and tasty breakfast. All the staff we met, on Reception and in the Restaurant, were very friendly. Despite the fact that the hotel is located in the centre of the town and that music is played in the ground floor bar till midnight on Friday and Saturday nights our room was very quiet. The free Wi-Fi worked very well.
South Woodham Ferrers is very well placed to explore the countryside, the City of Southend-on-Sea and towns and villages nearby.

I visited as I was visiting family - Woodham Ferrers has lots of facilities - such as park (for walking the dog) -Manor farm for children's activities (brilliant - mainly all outside); leisure centre with swimming pool (not particularly big) and a very compact but with variety shopping centre.
This is a family area and does not support luxury/designer shops
Woodham Ferrers has good access to major road links and a train station to London.
The Indian restaurant in South Woodham Ferrers was excellent and very good value for money

I visited on a whim, just to get out of London. Compared to other places I've visited in the country this year, this has to be the best in lacking any soul and social interaction. As I was walking and no signs were present on the main roads, why do you need to follow the bike routes to get to the railway station? Why didn't anyone know where the station was? Also, there are some old radar stations on the hill. Yet again no signs as to how to get there and once there, no history about the place. This also was the case along the river. No signs. If there's anyone who comes out with flying colour during the trip, the prize goes to the the bus drivers of Essex. These were the only people who could put a sentence together.

I only used the hotel as a stop off point for a trip to Colchester but I thought Woodham Ferrers was a nice little town. The hotel was in a very central convenient location. It had all I wanted. I ate in the green king pub next to Asda. Was lovely, noisy but it was Saturday night so that’s standard.

My wife and I stayed at this family-run hotel for two nights (Friday and Saturday nights).We enjoyed a very generous and tasty breakfast. All the staff we met, on Reception and in the Restaurant, were very friendly. Despite the fact that the hotel is located in the centre of the town and that music is played in the ground floor bar till midnight on Friday and Saturday nights our room was very quiet. The free Wi-Fi worked very well in our room. The staff provided useful information about nearby, overnight, free parking.
The location of the hotel was perfect, we had all the essential shops on our door step, we came down to stay because we were going to a christening in a neighbouring village, the price was good as we did enquire at another hotel but there wasn't a breakfast, everything was perfect very nicely surprised as you can imagine with some hotels, your hotel was very clean, looks very well looked after, pleasant staff, we will be booking with you again when we visit our friends, plus we will definitely recommend you.
Adequate facilities. No food served on premises the evening of my arrival but The Oaklands was happy for food to be brought in and would even supply plate and cutlery if requested. I enjoyed a good Chinese takeaway purchsed 2 minutes walk from the hotel.
Was able to park at the back of the hotel off road.
Plenty of tea/coffee making facilities in the room.
Great place, at first it doesn't look much but it's a lovely stay. Free parking nearby. Plenty of dining options within yards. The bar is really friendly and has Sports TV on a number of screens.
Lovely well cooked breakfast,
