“Quiet getaway”
Great gardens, with friendly hosts. Quiet due to location but still close enough to town that it didn't take long to go anywhere. Comfortable bed with dedicated parking for guests.

We would come back again. Mike gave us a warm welcome and told us a lot about Cambridge. The accommodation is in a quiet location and has a beautiful garden. It is also conveniently located for visiting Hobbiton (approx. 30 minutes). The breakfast offered everything you need. Definitely recommended.

Wendy and Mike were very kind, they welcomed us in their structure explaining everything in a very detailed way. The room has all the possible comforts and the structure is in a very convenient location to reach the town of Cambridge and the surrounding attractions. They provided us with a breakfast room where we could find everything we needed for a good home breakfast. Thank you for your welcome Wendy and Mike.
