A very nice and old hotel... looks like an old manor house. Lovely garden surrounding it. Rooms are okay, old as one would expect. Cleaning could hv done a bit better and there was no water pressure on the shower at times.

As a B&B this is a good option. Lovely grounds and a great breakfast. It was not as quiet as I was expecting and there isn't much to do so less suitable for those travelling alone

Very impressive site as we turned into the drive. When we checked out the reception staff member gave us a great tip about not driving into Cambridge because of the extremely high parking costs. Instead they told us where the nearby Park & Ride was. A very convenient and very must less expensive transportation option that we wouldn't have known if not for her. We also enjoyed the buffet English breakfast, which was included in the rate. Finally, there was a beautiful walking path around the estate that we enjoyed.
