Had a lovely couple of night's at the white hart. On arrival there was ample free parking, at reception there were happy, smiling faces. Everything was explained and check in was very quick.
The room was spacious, clean and well equipped with everything you need. Bathroom was bright and clean with a bath/shower.
The bar/restaurant staff were extremely pleasant and quick to get your orders through and on the table.
Menu was nice and the food was great and reasonably priced. Location was great for my needs.

Beautiful old hotel
Wonderful very old building with very helpful friendly staff. A building this old can’t be in perfect condition but they do their best. Very helpful with food when we were a little late arriving.

The room was small and in need of TLC
The cistern was very slow to fill, there were rawlplugs and holes over the headboard, the back of the wardrobe was coming off and dirty marks on the wall below the window

The only downside was the lack of choice on the food, I asked for 3 of the options on the light menu, not avaiable and 2 on the main menu, the same.

Run down hotel
Nice and helpful staff but the hotel is run down, my room was not very clean, the toilet was leaking, the bathroom needed a good upgrade. It is a shame, 10 years ago it was a very good hotel but today it seems to be run by people who wants the money without investing in their hotel...

The White Hart is incredibly charming and in a great, central location in town, close to restaurants and coffee shops. The staff were incredibly helpful and friendly and were very amenable to helpimg get us fed when we had a late check-in. The food was delicious at dinner and breakfast. Our room was very charming and, like any older building, had its quirks (the floor was very sloped and the water pressure in the shower was pretty low). Overall, the hotel was great and served our purposes well attending a wedding in Coggeshall.

The White Hart is a lovely hotel and pub set in the charming village of Coggeshell. We stayed bed and breakfast for 2 nights. The manageress, Nicky, and her staff were welcoming, pleasant and friendly. Our room was clean, inviting and quiet; the bed was especially comfortable, and we slept well both nights. We really enjoyed our breakfasts, there was lots of choice for both the continental style and the cooked breakfasts, the food was of good quality and plentiful. We can heartily recommend staying there.

Ok place but photos on website makes this look better than it is. A bit tired, poor bathroom facilities and bed was uncomfortable. Staff are nice enough but evening meal was average.
Positives - Breakfast is good.

Great value and comfortable. It is a 15th century building so expect that experience, but staff and location were great. One of the best stays in a long trip.
