June 2009:
Saffron Walden Tourist Information Office has nominated Warner's Farm to represent Saffron Walden, as the best B&B in this region  for the Tourism in Essex Awards: Best Bed and Breakfast or Guesthouse.

Warner's Farm is a unique distinctive historic farmhouse built before 1430. Away from any traffic, set in its own delightful gardens with a large natural fish pond complete with island. The grounds are teaming with wildlife and provides an idyllic tranquil environment to enjoy and unwind. A peaceful haven for visitors as well as being close to many local attractions, it is ideal for walking, touring and cycling holidays to take in the many places of historic and scenic interest.

The documents we have on Warner's date back to 1630. The house was built beside an old Roman road (now a footpath) and with the natural spring on the land, it is likely to have been the site for early settlements. We have many interesting artifacts found by a local metal detector enthusiast such as buttons, shot, pipes, coins including an Elizabeth 1 silver sixpence. We also back on to the reserve airfield used by the famous American Eagle Squadron who came to Carver Barracks in the 2nd World War.

There is a heated outdoor swimming pool available to guests May - Oct. The beautiful historic beamed guest lounge has Sky TV and a huge open log fire place.

Each guest room is unique in character and has a colour TV with Freeview, refreshment tray with good choice of teas & coffees, hairdryer, bathrobes and toiletries, some have fridges.

Delicious breakfasts, full English, Continental or to your taste are served using local produce and have many mentions of praise in our guest book.

Guests have the use of the lounge, dining room, summer house, swimming pool, and the garden.

We like to make you feel at home at Warner's Farm, giving you a memorable experience you will want to repeat.
