Dedham Vale hotel rooms a the Independent

"Fab place. I’ve stayed a few times and it’s always good quality. Staff went above and beyond this visit. Gym was excellent with good quality air con. My room was nice & comfy. I did 3 classes during my stay, all classes were of high quality. I had an evening meal & breakfast, again good quality. I sat out on the veranda overlooking the golf course. I also used the sauna during my visit which was one of the hottest I’ve been in! Top notch! Well done The Essex"

"Love staying here as close to family "

"Excellent property quite and pleasant"

"Nice and easy…plenty of parking…tea making facility was good and if you need more just ask whatever you wanted wasn’t a problem "

"Perfect overnight stay. Comfortable, lovely breakfast, friendly staff. Thank you. "

"Nice room very clean staff pleasant but bar area in need of a bit of love snd attention. Breakfast very good but placement of things s bit odd. Why is the butter with the fresh fruit section and not by the toaster and bread and jams !? Also tea making area very congested and when busy you have to wait a very long time to access the hot water/ coffee machine. "

"Comfortable room and excellent supper in the restaurant. There were 2 of us with bikes and very kindly were allowed to store them overnight in the hotel. Excellent stopover if completing the Wolf Way bike trail. "

"It's too bad there isn't an air conditioner or a small cooler in the room. A small refrigerator could be added to have cold drinks."

"Really beautiful spot, with a great bar and outdoor area, right next to the beach"
