The rectory farm is a lovely place to stay, very quiet and welcoming. We checked in after 4pm and was upgraded free of charge. However, the hot water wasn’t working properly so we had to change rooms. The room was slightly bigger but a smaller bed which was fine too. (But I did prefer the other big bed). Set on lovely grounds. It would be nice if they had more toiletries available in the room. Other than that had a great stay and would definitely recommend.

We had a great stay. The property itself is beautiful and the ground is very private. Pool is outdoor and closed during October so can’t comment. Can’t comment on the staff as we didn’t see anyone. Room was beautiful as the theme fitted in with the building style but tea/coffee tray was very poor, only a tiny bar of soap and only 2 towels for our whole stay. Location was good as only 10mins by taxi to centre of Cambridge.

Really nice place

The room was very nice and clean, a bit warm but with the window open there was a nice breeze. The swimming pool is very nice, heated at the right temperature to be pleasant but not too hot for a swim. Thw building and garden are great.

The hotel looked good on the web but I had some doubts, partly from other peoples comments. I shouldn't have worried, it is one of the best places we have stayed in during months of travel. Unlike some chain hotels there's no deferred maintenance. It's really tidy and everything works well. It was a great base with park and ride and the M11 both very close. The staff were really great and felt like old friends over our four day stay. Thanks to Sarah and Darren (the breakfast team) who looked after us and gave us some helpful travel tips. Overall it was like a home from home.
