The picturesque and highly regarded village of Coggeshall is well known for its amenities, from notable restaurants, cafés, local shops and excellent schools; those include Honywood Community Science Secondary School, St Peter's Primary School and the Montessori nursery.

One of the key features for commuters is the regular minibus that takes people to and from the local Kelvedon mainline station with a rail service into London Liverpool Street.
