We’ll never know what it was like because the owner rented the b&b to someone else, although we had a confirmed booking. They didn’t have the courtesy to apologise, simply asked us to wait another 30 minutes for them to return. As it was a very hot day and they said their one room was not available, and we had already been waiting for an hour we left. We were told there had been a booking made for a whole week, so obviously the owners had no qualms about dumping our one night! Very unprofessional. When we rang the given contact number we could hear the phone ringing in the vacant house! This is also a room above a garage, accessed by an uncovered staircase, so not great if it’s raining! The garden we spent a very thirsty hour and a half in was very pretty!

If you like thatched cottages, Country Gardens and being made a fuss of, this is your place! Nothing was too much trouble for Debbie and Dave, they were so welcoming and friendly. The room was beautifully presented and spotlessly clean. The little touches were lovely, a small carafe of port, tea and coffee and a few sweet treats! We had a very comfortable night and breakfast the next morning was delicious. Debbie was so attentive, we felt thoroughly spoilt! Would definitely recommend. We visited Duxford and Ely on our trip.

I cannot praise the owners enough for this amazing experience! Right from check in they were so welcoming and friendly and nothing was too much trouble through the whole of our stay. The room they rent is a beautiful space above a double garage, it has all the mod cons you’d need including , tv and a hair dryer.The bed is incredibly comfortable , I’ve not slept so well in a very long time. You also get the use of a huge , well tendered and interesting garden, I think David’s pride and joy, apart from the rogue walnut trees thanks to the squirrels ( look for the hidden pond 😉) The owners live in the main cottage ( it’s out of this world cute)but provide breakfast in their separate dining area, the spread they provide is not only extremely delicious ( we had a cooked breakfast) they also supply a lovely fruit yogurt compote, tea, coffee, orange juice and water and cereal if required . The breakfast table was laid in a lovely traditional way which we loved. Debbie has a laundry room to iron if needed. The little touches of the chocolate and the evening tipple with beautiful crystal glasses were especially cute not to mention the lovely cup cakes and macaroons . Our whole stay was perfect and I wouldn’t hesitate to book again, thank you Debbie and David, you really do go above beyond to make your guest feel welcome and valued.

Everything about the cottage and our stay was excellent. We arrived later than we had said but this wasn't an issue. Room was up a flight of external (wooden) stairs above a garage. No noise from house, garage, road or surrounding houses. Decor in our room was lovely. Lots of nice 'extras' provided (various types of tea and coffee, chocolate, sweets etc.). Breakfast was in the cottage. Had a choice for breakfast and we went for a full English. Plenty of toast, cereals, tea, coffee etc. was also provided. Lady owner very nice, approachable, helpful. If we decide to stay in this area again will definitely stay here and would recommend anyone looking for somewhere to stay in this area to stay here.

We cannot rate this B&B highly enough. The accommodation is top class and the hosts are without doubt the friendliest we have come across. The breakfast, too, exceeded expectations. We couldn’t have been made to feel more welcome and would 100% recommend this cottage. Thank you so much for a wonderful stay.
