Great, responsive staff

Staff are lovely and responsive. Breakfast is great, as is the price. I reported a slow-draining shower after the first day, which was promptly resolved but housekeeping forgot to come that day. Funny smell in the room (fusty).

Dont be fooled by the exquisite exterior: avoid booking a room here unless you dont mind a bedroom that was last decorated in the 1980s at best, a tired bathroom that has black mould on the windows, and a television that cannot be viewed from the bed. This alongside a very poor breakfast service: no fresh coffee or coffee machines, the hot food was luke warm, the orange juice was the cheap pre-frozen mix that requires diluting before service, and the atmosphere of a bus station cafe. The phrase "simple accommodation" doesnt even get close.

Fabulous hotel within easy reach of the city centre. Great for a large group staying as we were for our son's wedding. Breakfast abd evening bar meals excellent. Only complaint would be that the wifi was very patchy and we often had no signal

The grounds and the facade of the building are excellent. The rooms are quite sparse, bland and tatty but functional, in agreement with many other reviews I’d say they are more like student accommodation or nursing home rooms. With a small amount of time and money this could be improved by things like replacing of the grubby silicone. This is also true of the dining room and bar (the bar really is resembling a nursing home lounge and totally soulless). I could overlook many of these issues to an extent if the service was good, unfortunately this was the main issue with our stay, staff were not unpleasant but looked like they were just there to do the bare minimum and not going out of their way to welcoming. Our first morning breakfast we were the only guests left in the dining hall, bizarrely the 3 staff present stood right next to our table, one even leaning on the chair next to myself and began a conversation amongst themselves discussing work related issues, after a while the older and presumably senior member suggested they move away from the guests, really this should never happen. On our second morning breakfast, we arrived at 9am only to find most of the hot food items empty, on asking if these were being replenished we were told this was on its way, after 20 minutes some eventually came out but some items remained empty. This meant we were able to starting to eat at around 9.25. 9.30 on the dot the staff started clearing away around us.

Very impressive site as we turned into the drive. When we checked out the reception staff member gave us a great tip about not driving into Cambridge because of the extremely high parking costs. Instead they told us where the nearby Park & Ride was. A very convenient and very must less expensive transportation option that we wouldn't have known if not for her. We also enjoyed the buffet English breakfast, which was included in the rate. Finally, there was a beautiful walking path around the estate that we enjoyed.

Felt special

Amazing hotel. Beautiful grounds. Staff were warm and welcoming. Room was in turret and was like a normal hotel room. It does not match exterior but still had a lovely stay. Breakfast was good, well cooked. I was so glad we stayed here. Lots of history on show. Would recommend and stay again. A short distant drive to centre about 8 mins but not a problem and the venue was worth the distance.
