"Husband took me out yesterday on Bank Holiday Monday, to this lovely little country house hotel in Great Baddow, on the outskirts of Chelmsford. The hotel itself appears to comprise of an old house with a number of new additions. There’s an independent swimming club, open to hotel guests comprising of both indoor, and outdoor pools, a restaurant, a conservatory/bar where we took tea, a restaurant, and 35 bedrooms. Parking is easy, especially if you are disabled, and in a wheelchair like me, as there are quite a number of specially marked off spaces. The main part of the hotel is accessed via 2 small steps, (though there is a portable ramp too, apparently . My clever husband ascertained that one could enter the hotel in the wheelchair via the conservatory area, and this obviated the need to climb any steps at all. We announced our presence in the conservatory area to the charming waitress on duty, who we later learned was called Stef. She couldn’t have made us more welcome, and explained the afternoon tea fully, enquiring if we had any dietary needs. Full tea is a very fair £19.50, and it comes prettily arranged on a silver tea stand, with a choice of teas which arrive in pretty individual china tea pots. My husband opted for English Breakfast, whereas I fancied Earl Grey. Hubby was quite thirsty, and Stef asked if he wanted another pot, which she brought speedily, and at no extra charge. Tea comprised of 4 generous finger sandwiches each. These were smoked salmon and cream cheese, egg and cress mayonnaise, grated cheese and pickle, and ham sandwiches. I initially enquired if we could order extra sandwiches at our own cost, (at this price, one wouldn’t expect a free sandwich top up! , and we were told this wouldn’t present any problem. As it so happened, the sandwiches were fresh and so well filled, we didn’t require any more. Of course there were also 2 freshly baked scones each, one plain, and one with fruit, butter, clotted cream, strawberry jam from Tiptree, and the top layer of the tea stand held an assortment of delicious mini cakes and macarons, expertly prepared by the Pontlands Park in house patisserie team. My favourites were the delicately spiced, perfectly moist mini carrot cakes, and the apple macarons. My husband preferred the mixed berry cakes, however. Stef kept popping over to check we were happy, and insisted we pack our leftovers in a takeaway container, as when we called for the bill, it was evident we’d been defeated by the contents of their tea stand. We will most definitely return, and, the sooner the better. It’s not the poshest afternoon tea I’ve ever had, however it was very fairly priced, freshly prepared, and of excellent quality. And, as for service, the lovely Stef couldn’t possibly have done more for us."

I went to one of their Christmas party nights on December 16, 2023, with our Classic Car group of over 40 people. The food and service were exceptional, and everyone had a fantastic evening.

The Marconi Veterans’ Association has now used the marquee at Pontlands Park for its annual reunion for the past two years. It has worked well with easy parking, good service, and its own bar facilities. The Association will be using Pontlands for its next reunion in 2023. Visualizza piatti

I am usually very critical when it comes to service and food, and have been known to send back all three courses if they are not up to my standards. However, I have never been disappointed with the staff, menu, or food quality at Pontlands. My only issue is that the portions are sometimes too generous for my liking.

We have dined at Pontlands Park for Sunday lunch three times since they stopped offering carvery service. The food was fantastic as always, with a diverse menu that even includes options for vegetarians. The portions were very generous. The atmosphere at the restaurant is impressive, and the staff is both friendly and professional. Overall, we had a very enjoyable dining experience.

having had sunday lunch 3rd Oct, i felt compelled to review our experience while fresh in the mind. In a word, faultless. From front of house to wait staff and first class food. My medium rare beef was as good a sunday roast i have had, and i have had a few. Wifes pork just as good. Tables are well spaced and although our table was a little tucked away, that would be nit picking. Overall a top class experience. Visualizza piatti

We recently stayed at Pontlands Park Hotel and had the most beautiful dinner in the restaurant in the evening. I had the Pontlands homemade pie which happened to be chicken, mushroom and leek which was delicious, and my partner had the Pontlands beef burger and hasn't stopped talking about it since. Incredible food. The setting was beautiful and the service was second to none. I did not catch the name of the waiter, but he was the one with the awesome tattoos! We will be returning very soon.

I do not think there is anywhere else to eat within walking distance of the hotel, so the restaurant may well be where you find your are eating while staying there. Rather like the hotel it punches above the 3 star rating of the accommodation. With a high ceiling, set in the older part of the hotel the room looks good. The menu is fairly short and sticks to favourites, so there should be something for most diners. The prices are at a level that may raise eyebrows and expectations a little. We had amongst other dishes, the crab cakes and skate and the chicken and burger. The first two were very good indeed with the burger a little underwhelming and the chicken somewhere in between. Overall a...
