BRILLIANT CL BUT EXTREEMELY NOISEY!

As has been said by others the facilities are superb, the site is immaculate and the owner is a lovely lady. The site is within easy walking distance of Thaxted - about 20 minutes. We recommend the beer and food in the Maypole. The site has direct access to a fantastic network of footpaths, one walk of about two miles will bring you to the hamlet of Monk Street and the Farmhouse Inn, its the best pub food we've ever had! The major problem here is noise, The site is almost directly below the final approach into Stansted Airport and the aircraft are only around 2,000 feet high at this point. In fact we were stood outside Thaxted Church and couldn't hear the bells at midday due to aircraft. They come over about every three minutes. Also the road is noisy. Also at the time of our visit an aspiring pop group who could neither sing play guitar or drums were trying out their new mega loud electric speakers for hours on end a few doors away. If you like noise you will like it here. For visitors arriving from the South on the 184 do not follow the signs to Bardfield until you come down the steep hill into Thaxted or you could go wrong several times.
