Beautiful Place to Stay

Stunning grounds and buildings, clear signage and guidance for how to find things/ log on to WiFi, etc, and really peaceful surroundings.

My stay at Rectory Farm

There was poor lighting in the hallway to open the room door, had trouble opening the room door, very noisy at night with doors banging especially with windows open, very comfortable bed, clean room and good breakfast.
Doreen Anne, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Quiet and Calm and perfect for Cambridge

Loved our stay. Clean and comfortable. The low beam in the bathroom did make contact with my head a number of times! But this discomfort was more than compensated by the quiet and calm surroudings, the tasy breakfast and the outdoor pool. The location was perfect. A stones throw away from the park and ride and only 2.5 miles from Cambridge centre.

Lovely Place

We booked it literally that morning and everything was straightforward, easy to check in and the room was amazingly spacious for what we paid. Only one brief encounter with the receptionist who was very pleasant, beautiful area.

More amenities, please

Spacious room, lovely property. Considering how nice the room was, we were surprised by how meager the amenities; only one tiny bar of soap and one towel each. We had to buy kitchen roll and shower gel. Also, you need to ask for the iron. The toilet is so close to the wall that you need to sit sideways on the toilet. Our room faced the parking lot and there were no blinds, so had to lose all natural light for any privacy. For the price, these quirks should be remedied.

Ignore the location

Do not let the position of this hotel influence your decision. It might be near the motorway but the ambience and style of the house was wonderful.The staff were welcoming and friendly with an excellent breakfast offered.

Fantastic!

Such a pleasant stay at the Rectory Farm! I didnt know what to expect but the rooms were specious, very clean, pretty surroundings, it was warm in the room. I would definitely book again. Its not too far from the city centre which makes it convenient.

Nice place

Nice king size bed and big shower for 2 people. Bed comfortable and house and grounds beautiful. Only issue can hear next rooms plugging into sockets and doors closing which woke us up.

Room was very clean and well presented and very comfortable. We enjoyed our stay.
Alison, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Good value

This hotel is good value for its proximity to central Cambridge, the rooms are clean and comfortable. The shower was a good size and powerful. It’s very limited in terms of reception staff, they are only there at occasional times, but we knew that already as we had stayed before. The check in time was confusing because the Rectory Farm app said it was 3pm but when we got there the sign said no check in until 4pm, so we then had to hang about for an hour. The only other thing that would have made our stay more comfortable would be easier access to cold drinking water in the main house: it was a very hot couple of days, the water from the bathroom tap was lukewarm and the only place to get a cold drink was the vending machine in the other building/annexe. There are no fridges in the rooms. I would still say it’s good value for money though, compared with the city centre hotels, and we had no trouble getting taxis when we were going out for the evenings.
Eleanor, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

Nice place but watch out for the parking surcharge

Well priced accommodation and pleasant stay. Just disappointing that after choosing this hotel for its price and quiet location, we then got charged £5 for parking to stay at a fairly rural location is called ‘Rectory Farm’ & all around are fields, not usually somewhere you’d expect to have to pay a surcharge for?
