	White Hart, Coggeshall, Essex The White Hart Hotel Coggeshall is located in the centre of the Essex village of Coggeshall, near to Braintree, Marks Tey, Kelvedon, Witham and Colchester via the A120. The White Hart Coggeshall takes its looks and surroundings straight from a picture postcard, this stunning building dates back to the 15th century and still has a wealth of its original features, notably its attractive timbered rooms. The main part was built in 1526 as a home for one Robert Paycocke, but appears to have become an inn quite soon afterwards, patronised by merchants who dealt far and wide in the town's principal manufacture, which was lace. The oldest part of the building, was originally one end of the Coggeshall's Guildhall, was later incorporated into the White Hart Hotel and is now its resident's lounge. The fine old White Hart Coggeshall suits its surroundings admirably. It's as perfect an English hotel as you could wish for, combining ancient dignity with the highest standards of modern comfort.

	White Hart Hotel, Braintree, Essex The White Hart Hotel Braintree is located in the centre of the Essex market town of Braintree, near to Witham, Chelmsford and Colchester via the A120, Also with easy access to Stansted Airport. The earliest mention of the historic White Hart Hotel Braintree in official records is as late as 1591, when a court was held there. However the plentiful timbers evident in the White Hart hotel's main block have been positively dated to the early Tudor period, and tradition has it that the cellars are older still. In the later years the hotel was a staging point for some of the most prestigious coach services in the region such as the Old Bury between London and Bury St Edmunds, the Phenomenon, which ran between London and Norwich, and the Hope, which connected Chelmsford and Colchester. Today the White Hart Hotel is a popular meeting place for locals and a good base for exploring the area. Book The Hotel Now www.oldenglishinns.co.uk/braintree
