Beautiful gardens, pretty rooms and helpful staff. Breakfast too pricey so went into Cambridge on the park and ride. Apart from a small bar of soap there were no toiletries, the bed was comfey and the room had a lovely outlook over the garden. Very reasonably priced.

Very convenient location, close to M11 (5 min drive) and Park and Ride (10 min walk) but noise wasn't an issue as it was constant in the back ground, almost white noise. Rooms good, clean and with a bit of character. Grounds of the house lovely with avenue of trees to drive up to the building, and walk clearly signposted to local pub (20 mins walk, mainly through fields and woodland). Very pleasant stay.

Beautiful property. We were very pleased by the friendly and welcoming staff. The rooms are charming, clean, and full of character. Upon arrival, we were upgraded to a larger room that was tastefully furnished and very comfortable. Transportation was easy to-and-from town using uber. We will definitely be returning in the future.

Ignore the location

Do not let the position of this hotel influence your decision. It might be near the motorway but the ambience and style of the house was wonderful.The staff were welcoming and friendly with an excellent breakfast offered.

Unfortunately our room was opposite a family that had 2 rooms and they kept going from 1 room to the other, each time letting the doors slam. This was happening til quite late in the evening & a couple of times during the night, waking me up. So although the place itself was lovely, lack of sleep marred our stay.

Loved my stay there, it is a beautiful property with stunning grounds and reasonabley priced for each night. The only let down was the breakfast, we didnt think it was worth the money and it was cold. Apart from vending machines there isnt any other way to get food and drink.

Liked: Property conditions & facilities
The hotel and grounds are nice, the receptionist was welcoming and professional, location is good for the park and ride into Cambridgeshire, however there are some improvements that should be made: - The room did not have net curtains at the window and I do not appreciate being looked in on by people using the gardens!! - Not all of the appliances in the room had portable appliance test stickers on them, therefore are not compliant. - The loose glass tops on the furniture in the room are a hazard! I caught myself on the sharp corner of one! - The charges for parking (£5 per night!) and swimming (£5 per person, per day!!) should be clear on the hotel description, I only found it by scrolling down the information on the hotel’s own website, not on Expedia!! - The pool was not clean and the gate has staples sticking out which I caught my hand on!!
