5* If you're lucky enough to find one of Angela's rooms available, don't think twice. Lovely hosts, clean as a whistle, great location, quiet – I booked for two nights, then booked two more. The six rooms share a common room with a sitting area, well-appointed kitchen, and washer/drier. Multiple sources of groceries, including a local produce vendor, are within two blocks, along with a bakery and three pubs. If you're new to this charming town, a visit to the excellent museum is a must. I look forward to returning to Brightlingsea, and when the time comes I'll check for availability at Angela's place first.
