Quiet, clean, friendly & comfortable

Friendly village pub with rooms which were converted outbuildings across a small car park. Plenty of outside seating. Good choice of draught beers etc. Menu looked good but we had eaten earlier so didn't visit restaurant area. Staff very friendly & couldn't do more. Sunday eve sun made outside area popular & pub welcomed dogs inside

Pub rooms close to Cambridge

The greeting on arrival was rather miserable. Certainly not warm. The room was quite small and a bit stuffy , with no window view. It was clean and the bed firm and comfortable, but was quite basic and a little tired. It also had clothes moths, so when we got home we emptied our bags outside and shook every item vigorously (we had a couple in the bags). The pub was quite nice, staff and food were excellent. The set Indian meal was superb, as was the sea bass. I'd say that value for money was average given the comments above and the lack of a breakfast.

Excellent accommodation, restaurant and bar area.

Excellent stay. There are 4 x ex stables which have been converted into individual chalet type accommodation. Comfortable. Medium sized fridge in room. No noise from adjoining accommodation. Free parking. Had an excellent meal in the restaurant. Bar area separate from restaurant. Would definitely recommend and stay again.

Pleasantly surprised

I was pleasantly surprised. The rooms are converted stables, which are very quaint. The room had everything you needed including a mini fridge. The pillows were amazing, had a good nights sleep. The only negative is that the heating was not on when I arrived, so the room was very cold. Ate in the restaurant and by the time I returned it was warm

The bed was two singles pushed together and one was soft the other hard. There was no breakfast…I’ve never stayed at a pub before that didn’t offer breakfast. There was a big green light on by the door which illuminated the room when you turned the lights off. The radiator made an electrical buzzing noise which kept waking me up…rhe staff were nice at least!

Excellent evening meal. Friendly and helpful staff. Very close to bus stop to get into Cambridge. Nice touches like tissues in the room, water in the fridge Main pub building had plenty of comfortable seating and outdoors tables etc. Climbing frame looked good. Room a bit cramped for three adults, but exactly as shown in the photograph. King bed very comfortable. Would happily stay there again

Check in was easy and the room was well appointed - parking near the rooms was convenient - bedding was good quality as was the shower - good that there was a fan and a fridge in the hot weather. The only thing that was a bit of an issue was there was a lot of insects in the room - like small moths - we didn’t report it as we had a short stay but ensured our clothing was packed away out of harms way.
