Dec 15, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### The ultimate getaway for relaxation Firstly, Maldon is an absolutely beautiful town that you really must experience, but if it's a relaxing secluded and private getaway that you are after, consider staying at the Cozy Cottage. Located a bout 10 mins walk and 2 mins drive from the town centre, this amazingly quiet and conveniently placed studio is just what you need, no more, no less. Containing all of the required amenities, you get the chance to relax in comfort and peace and quiet. We had a beautiful weekend, so much so that I didn't want to build this place up too much as it's that good, and don't want to many people to know about it. The hosts are fantastic, everything is conveniently set-up for you, just to make it all easy and accessible. Book here and enjoy, we did and will be doing so again really soon. ##### Kon D.
