Unique, cozy property in an amazing location

We had such a great time at the Eaglehawk. A beautiful property with a wonderful garden and lots of unique, cozy spaces throughout. A short distance from the lovely town of Maldon, would love to come back for another stay.

A beautiful appointed property furnished in keeping with the historical era.

My family stayed midweek in Autumn and were very impressed with this beautiful Hotel. It was decorated and furnished to the highest standard with amazing attention to detail. The garden was very relaxing sitting under the birch trees enjoying the peace and quiet. The Hotel was spacious, clean, comfortable and a real treat to step back into history. I would highly recommend this experience to others and hope to return again!
