Ideal Stay!

We stayed at the Cottage- a lovely place in a quiet neighborhood. Lyn was an amazing host- even left us a bottle of wine and cake as a welcome gift. We didn’t cook during our stay, but the kitchen seemed very well equipped. Bed and linens were very comfortable and the cottage was very clean. Our favorite part about this place was the private garden. We would love to stay here again!

Perfect family-friendly accommodation

A perfect location for our young family for a stay over Christmas, with plenty space and private garden views. Lyn is an excellent host, and the Cottage is a wonderfully presented property. Everything we needed was provided. We had a very comfortable stay and hope to return in future.

Welcoming Cottage

Lovely house in beautiful surroundings. Garden is just lovely and it’s so very private. In nice rural area with very easy access to larger towns and many National Trust buildings to enjoy. Would definitely stay there again if ever in the area. Very much appreciated the bottle of wine and the cookies left for us by the owners, Lyn and Eric who were so very nice and made us feel welcome.

Lovely house, great location

Brilliant- house had everything that we needed and Lyn was super helpful. The garden is marvellous and the village has tennis courts and table tennis tables and a great park for kids ( plus a shop and two pubs). Easy to get into Cambridge and the guided bus was excellent!

EXCELLENT PROPERTY

The property was excellent in every way , very clean and well furnished. Warm welcome by the owner. We were well impressed with the Park and Ride into Cambridge from near by St Ives using the guided "Bus Way" .We will certainly be back next year for our Holiday and would recommend it to other people.

Lovely cottage in a peaceful location

We really enjoyed our stay in the cottage! The accommodation was spacious and very clean.The living room was comfortable, and opens onto a large garden. We only met Lyn briefly when we arrived, but she was very welcoming, and we were always able to contact her via email if we needed to. Needingworth itself is quite small, but St Ives is only a few minutes away. Cambridge, Ely and Wicken Fen are all about 30 mins drive. A great place to stay if you enjoy peace and quiet and would like to explore the Cambridge area. We would definitely stay here again!

Second visit

This is our second time of staying at "The Cottage" and we are never disappointed with the presentation of the bungalow, it is kept to a very high standard and it is just like coming home each time we come to stay. Lyn makes you feel that you are on holiday but she is near by if you require any help. We are unable to return in 2017 but hope to return in 2018 for another holiday and if the weather is as good as we have had this year then we shall once again enjoy our stay at the Cottage.

Large cottage in quiet location

This bungalow is very spacious but in need of some TLC. The garden has many trees which in our opinion are in need of a visit from an arborist. They cut out a lot of light to the property. Unfortunately whilst we were there , we had quite a lot of rain overnight which overflowed the gutters and noisily dropped on the window sill. The owner did come round and did his best to fix it . The location is very good for exploring the area, lots to do within an hour or so drive , the cottage has everything you need and is very comfortable.

Perfect place for area

Our stay at Lyn and Eric’s place was the perfect accommodation for our family of five. The house is very spacious, we were all able to have a space to go to for some time alone. It was great to have two toilets and a huge full bathroom. The kitchen is supplied with everything you need to cook and store groceries. The garden is absolutely beautiful and great for a tea or coffee and to sit out in the sun. The area is beautiful with close proximity to shops and restaurants and nature preserves to explore. Obviously, Cambridge is not too far. Overall, when we are able to return to visit our family and friends we hope to reserve the Cottage again. Thank you Lyn and Eric.

Great location; comfortable and cosy property

This property is in a great location for exploring the Fen region including Ely and Cambridge. The village has a well stocked shop and access to fenland walks and a marina (with accompanying seals). There are some beautiful nearby villages and access to some wonderfully interesting walks. It's well worth hiring a boat to explore the waterways. The property has a lovely, large and private garden and the house is very comfortable and well appointed, providing everything you need (particularly within the kitchen) for making you feel at home.

Outstanding holiday property

The cottage is a large, spacious , clean and comfortable bungalow. The owners are lovely people and a pleasure to deal with.We found it an ideal place for touring this part of Cambridgeshire. The local pub is within walking distance and is an absolute gem. It serves fantastic food at sensible prices. We are already planning a return trip.

What a great place to stay, great location with access to anywhere. Plenty of restaurants within easy reach. Cottage itself is very comfortable and has plenty of space. The gardens are superb we saw a deer in the early morning and a fox in the late evening, great place just to sit and relax. I would highly recommend this cottage to anyone.
