It was disappointing that there were no members of staff, we also tried to go to the snacks and drinks bar and there was no one there either. The room was in lovely condition but sad that there were no shower amenities.

Decent for the price
For the price, especially in/around cambridge I thought the room was okay. The building and grounds are beautiful. I didn’t enjoy the many many messages and emails I received in advance to arrange payment and deposit payment. It’s very rare these days to have to pay a deposit. When I arrived checking in was like an orienteering exercise to find key and room. Not what you need in the dark after a long day travelling. I enjoy arriving at hotels and seeing a person at reception, it’s part of the experience for me and while I imagine the lack of service is what helps to keep the price lower, it does significantly impact the overall experience. That’s a personal preference. Location isn’t bad especially if you’re driving.

Property is a quiet and reasonable location and was reasonably straightforward to book and out remotely. The lack of any human interaction at the premises means if you do have questions you may find it hard to gain an answer quickly and the names of all guests on envelopes outside i am certainly not sure is a good idea. Overall its reasonably priced, clean and offers value for money for what is provided.

The property is in a very convenient location for the M11 but still very quiet. It is in nice grounds and very clean. It’s an automated check in and out system which worked very well so I couldn’t rate the staff. The room was a little strange. Badly laid out with a column right in the place you’d knock into it without the lights on. A kitchen area that had no pots pans or other items with a notice in the fridge that it was not for guest use. (Who else we wondered?)

Our room was in the chalet, not the main property. It’s a lovely setting but our room was disappointing. When we arrived, all the keys to rooms were outside the property with an envelope with your name on, so anyone could just walk in and take your room key. Our room had a kitchen (not for guest use), including a fridge that’s switched off. Unfortunately somebody had left a tuna baguette in there. The room felt clean but needs a lot of TLC. There were cracks in the ceiling/walls and limited ventilation as there’s only one window you can open, so the room got rather hot. The bathroom was clean but there seemed to be some mould above the shower. As we were about to go to sleep a large bug ran across the floor. We believe this was a termite and have never seen anything like it before. The walls must be quite thin as I could hear snoring from another room. Overall the room served its purpose but we did not feel relaxed enough to get a good night’s sleep. I think it has so much potential but needs a revamp!

Room 14A warning wear a hard hat
I stayed in room 14 A room was nice only downside was the rafter in the roof very low very low on the window side of the it wasn’t until i smacked my head of it did I see the small notice on it. Rafter could do with highlighting probably paint it a different colour. Apart from having a sore head for four days I enjoyed my stay lovely and quiet

Great property in a great location! However the place needs to upgrade in various areas. We booked the deluxe room and the sofa was uncomfortable, fridge available but not working. No complaints because it was good value for money, but the management can provide more to enhance customer experience. Having said that, I would still do a return visit!

Lovely view of parkland from the window. Attractive furnishings and very comfortable bed. Nice and quiet. Great shower and smart clean bathroom. Some biscuits would have been nice. The postcode was wrong, it sent us to a private residence. Would definitely stay again.

Quite location, convenient access to City Centre by taking a bus from Park and Ride only 10 minutes walk away from the Farm. Cute little rooms, super comfortable beds, very clean. Would definitely recommend the Accomodation.
