Great stay really quiet in the middle of nowhere which for us was great. Nature was all around us (rabbits everywhere) the only down side was the WiFi yes they are on copper cables but maybe they could do with a WiFi extender as we couldn’t get WiFi in our room but that does not detract from what a great place it was.

This was an an enjoyable experience, particular for a sole traveller. The accommodation was clean and comfortable and the proprietors were extremely friendly and helpful. Breakfast (which was very good food) was an enjoyable social experience meeting other guests that you do not tend to get with staying at a larger chain hotel. Very relaxing and quiet rural location, easy for getting out and visiting Ely or Cambridge.

Not what we were expecting.

Not what we were expecting from the photos and reviews. The host was really good and the breakfasts were lovely excellent, but our room was anything but. There was mould on the bathroom ceiling, and the radiator was coming off the wall. The furniture in the conservatory is falling apart.

Good value room near Ely

Exceptional value stop over for the night. En suite room in a row of cabins, comfortable and warm room with easy open window if ventilation needed. Very friendly welcome from host. village of Witchford within a few minutes drive or equally easy to drive into Ely city centre. Had to leave early so didn't get to sample breakfast but had sausage sandwich in fridge of breakfast room which has 24hr tea / coffee making facilities.

Well worth a visit

V good value. Friendly and welcoming. Basic room with 2 friendly mules outside. The only slight negative was extremely bumpy 200 metres unsupported road to premises. No problem if careful but don't bring your Ferrari! Would definitely recommend for a stay.

A warm welcome, and well looked after

Comfortable cabins, and a fantastic home cooked breakfast. Yes, the drive is a bit potholed, but the welcome is second to none. I had a home cooked evening meal, which the host will provide for a reasonable cost. It is lovely to be out in the countryside - and I felt totally at home. Unfortunately I experienced a flat tire whilst there (a really old tire went pop) and the host was so kind - he sorted me out with a replacement tyre to keep me on the road for my meetings. I will book again, and take my wife for a quiet retreat to the country - and look forward to meeting the host once again. A lovely man.

Lovely warm welcome when we arrived. Breakfasts brilliant and vegetarians catered for. Only had to ask out host if we wanted anything extra. Very efficient radiators that warmed the room and en suite very quickly. Would definitely stay again.
