This property is immaculate with great facilities, the pristine kitchen area with free breakfast items is a really nice touch. The staff are very obliging and kept the breakfast items topped up. There is parking at the front and the property is on a bus route, with a stop just 200 yards away for easy access to the city centre. Overall a great choice and wouldnt hesitate to stay again.

Excellently run by Al who showed me around and gave an personal rundown of restaurants, grocery stores and pubs in the area. Breakfast cereals, milk and bread is provided along with butter and lots of tea and coffee. The bedrooms rooms are small but functional with irons, ironing boards, TV, kettle, plenty of sockets and hairdryer to let a few of everything provided The ensuite is nicely finished and again has additional items provided that just give it that thoughtful edge. I will definitely stay here again if required.

Comfortable, informal and convenient guest house

We had a daytime event to attend in Cambridge, and needed to be away early in the morning. That made this property ideal for our needs. Free onsite or free on-street parking. Convenient shared area in kitchen/diner, with complimentary breakfast items meant that we could wake early and prep our own breakfast and get on the road promptly. The room was clean, comfortable and well maintained, with a lovely ensuite. Just what we needed. Also on a good walking and/or bus route to central Cambridge.

I'd suggest paying for a "rear" room the road at the front is busy /noisy Tip for owner - empty your vacuum cleaner bag or use vacuum cleaner bag smelly things, or put a room fragrance in the room because the room , whilst lovely and clean., smelt of feet

Liked: Cleanliness
We stayed 2 nights at this property and it was excellent. The host couldn’t have been more friendly and accommodating. It was spotless clean and very comfy. Tea, coffee, biscuits and bottled water were also provided and there was a complimentary continental breakfast. Also parking was free and on site. It was conveniently placed and within walking distance of Cambridge. The price was also much cheaper than similar properties. All in all a real gem.
