Stayed over for the night as I working in the area. Incredibly fantastic price for what I got. Beautiful stay in countryside. Really nice and friendly. Amazing cooked breakfast in the morning! Couldn’t recommend enough. Would definitely stay here again.
Lovely stay in Fenland. Loved the field full of rabbits.

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.
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.
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.
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.
You - Hotels.com - list the property as Wilburton. That's wrong. It's Witchford, about 4 miles from Wilburton.
I learned that I have been charged for two people in a twin room whereas I booked for just myself. I'd appreciate a refund. Your website isn't terribly clear.
The property is very pleasant. Enjoyed my stay. Lovely breakfast, friendly & accommodating host, excellent shower and good night's sleep.
Nice small chalet style unit in good condition. Breakfast available by request at 6.30am which is great for those of us that need to be on site early. Nice breakfast freshly cooked to order.
Fantastic location for peace and quiet after the hustle and bustle of sight seeing. A very friendly welcome from the owner who also does a great breakfast included in the price. The rooms are spot on for what you want it for. Always stay there the owner can't do enough for you highly recommend it.
