ellen
For what it was, and they were entirely open about the lack of dining options, it was a delightful stay. Rooms were compact but clean, gardens were lovely and there was an exceptionally well signposted footpath led to the local pub. The pool was quaint, basic but quite pretty. Staff were friendly and helpful. Location to the park and ride meant it was extremely easy to get into Central Cambridge.
Geoffrey
We have been visiting the property for 18 years, it is a great location and a nice place to stay.
However , if you take a room with kitchen facility, you would expect basic stuff like cutlery, plates etc there was nothing!
Bathroom no shower gel or shampoo.
This day and age you would expect basic things like that.

Everita
All good, just hard to stay in heat, gravel road around and you have to drag yourself through it .. otherwise ok for the price.
John
Excellent comfortable stay in beautiful surroundings
Richard
Beautiful large clean room in this out of the way delightful Cambridge setting. Automatic gates lead to a pebbled driveway with ample parking, large original house divided into guest rooms also serves as an ensite bar and reception area, with seperate anex buildings housing other rooms and chalets, entry via key and electronic door release. Situated just 5 mins walk from Cambridge, Madingley Park and Ride, with easy access to town and colleges. Point of note no restuarant or breakfast served onsite. Will return.
Patrick
Despite having a fridge in the room, it was deliberately turned off and unavailable for use unless we paid an additional \"upgrade\" fee, which was disappointing especially during the heatwave.
Wendy
I was advised to checking using the app which I couldn't find after going to reception advised this hadn't worked for over a year !
Which was a bad start to the weekend .

David
I stayed here with my son. Room was really hot and therefore very uncomfortable. Fan supplied was very poor. We couldn't find the bar and couldn't gain access to the vending machines in the other building. Spent a sleepless night with no drinks. Couldn't voice our issues in morning as no one in reception.
Hyelim
Fantastic.
Spacious, quiet, everything is there except for breakfast or food. I would recommend 100% there must be an option for food but I didn’t see this time. I stayed in the heatwave, very warm in the room but there was a fan. I loved the nature around there and the path way from the gate to the building. So pretty

Nice place
Jill
Lovely house with good standard of cleanliness. There were no problem with parking.
Very disappointed that there was no restaurant for breakfast as stated when booked. As reception only opened at 4pm there was nobody to help with room issue. There was a tel number provided to call for assistance but no one answered.
Shame as nice place to stay.

Third time staying here. Place is a gem. Staff are friendly and welcoming. Rooms are clean. Grounds are superb and surrounding area is beautiful.
Sally
The parking facilities were excellent. It was very hot so the pool was useful and enjoyed our stay.
Robin
This is a difficult one to write about because the room was excellent and so was the pool (especially considering it was 37 degrees when we were there). The shower was brilliant, very powerful. The tea tray was good and liked having a teapot. Room clean.
We had a bit of trouble with the booking as we did it through Expedia, so I don’t know whether it was Expedia or the hotel that the problem came with, but it declined one of our bank cards and when we had the card checked out with the bank they said there was nothing wrong. Then we paid for the accommodation on another card and we thought that was the end of it but then it kept saying the card had been declined to take the £50 refundable deposit-but if they had managed to take the payment, why didn’t they take the deposit at the same time? Either card worked. They took this deposit and then still kept sending me messages saying they couldn’t take the payment. Obviously this can be very worrying because we don’t know whether we are being scammed.
Also I can’t really blame the hotel because of the extreme weather-the room was too hot to sleep and I had to have two showers in the night to cool down (the shower was amazing, very powerful) but, we could only open one small window partially even though there were two windows (one was locked), we understand they will say we could only open the window because of health and safety but across from us, in communal areas, there were windows wide open.

I love this place! The grounds are gorgeous, the staff are wonderful. The barn is dog friendly, the house is beautiful. There's free parking, a short walk to the park & ride, a pub in walking distance, and a swimming pool! What's not to like!

Beautiful grounds and building. We stayed in the chalet and room was good. Parking and use of the pool should really be included in the price in my opinion. Beer from the fridge was not cold at all.
Location good for getting into Cambridge though and would consider staying again

Close to major routes into Cambridge. Lovely peaceful stay with everything I need, good shower, linens and refreshments.
Anne
Lovely place convenient for Cambridge room was clean and comfortable exceeding our expectations for the price
We did not use the pool and thought having to pay extra for pool and parking seemed a bit strange
Instructions and info prior to visit was very good or saying no shampoo etc but it would of been helpful to know that the gates opened automatically if you drive close enough to them

Jenny
Great, basic place to stay. I have only ever stayed one night. The gardens are lovely and I particularly like that you can walk to the Plough through the fields (and back via road if dark). Also Blue Diamond garden centre 5 min walk away too. Cambridge park and ride 5 mins in other direction. No breakfast available at Hotel any more. Check in at 4.00pm perhaps the only negative.
Joanna
Nice clean room with lovely views over garden.Decent shower.
thomas
The room was excellent. Bedroom, small area with easy chairs and kitchen units between bedroom and bathroom. all beatifully maintained. As there was no restaurant or breakfast provided, the kitchen could be useful,for self catering. but every drawer empty so bring your own equipment. There was a vending machine in the barn for food.
Karla
Excellent! I’m a regular and would thoroughly recommend
Henry
Good
Daniel
Great friendly staff to welcome you in, the business room was on the snug side with the alcoves, but still a comfy room!
I did expect shower gel in the Bathroom but their is a Sainsbury’s a few minutes away to get supplies if you didn’t bring any.
Would definitely stay here again, but maybe with a different room / floor as there was quite a few beers on the staircase (reception lady was very helpful with trying to get these moved on)

It's a lovely building close to the M11 in lovely grounds with parking. What I didn't like was check in at 4pm, it's out of step with most other places which are 3pm.
Most hotels can get the rooms ready 11-3pm. The room was very small and the style was very dated, the rooms away from the main building are not well signed and a room for 2 people had no hand towels, 2 bath towels and the only toiletries was a minuscule bar of soap, no shower gel or shampoo. All hotels supply more than that and most people would expect them, you get more than that at a Travelodge. It was made worse by the fact there were no shops nearby and the vending machine stock was low of every thing and the cost was too high £2 for a bag o crisps , £3 for a can of cola.
It's is presented as an upmarket hotel but it's very disappointing, dated and not great value. The main building is impressive but the interiors of the chalet rooms feel like an old people's home and are in desperate need of renovation, it could be amazing but unfortunately it's outdated and mumsey at best.

Visited this hotel 5-6 times. I like the quiet room and comfortable beds. Only the last experience was bad...bed sheet and pillow cases not changed, smells stinky and feel itchy, not sure it's dirt or bed bugs.
Michelle
Beautiful entrance tree lined & gated!
Unfortunately the company held my deposit without my advance notice for no apparent well validated reason! Found this very unprofessional not to notify me first. Our room was comfortable but could really do with a make over as quite dated furnishings!

This was a perfectly adequate room. We slept well. The rooms were clean and well maintained. The vending machine left something to be desired. The property is beautiful and peaceful.
Mary
Rectory Farm is a beautiful old building with a lovely garden - we had a room with a garden view.
The room was very clean and the bathroom had a good hot shower over the bath.
Parking was easy but we paid £5 per car for the night.
The only reason I didn’t give the review 5 star was because there was only a small bar of soap (which was actually ok for one night), and the breakfast snacks were in a vending machine which was extra.
The hotel is very convenient for getting to Cambridge city centre by uber, and there is Coton garden centre around the corner which did a fabulous breakfast. The only WW11 American cemetery in the UK is also around the corner and very well worth a visit.
We very much enjoyed our stay there!

Hotel exceeded my expectations
Beverley
The welcome was excellent. The room was lovely, not sure if there was a wardrobe as I didn’t find one. Parking was well organised with plenty of room although not really sure it warrants £5 per night as it’s a private car park. Near to park and ride so that was appealing. All in all a great two days stay, thank you.

The booking included a damages deposit which I was not aware of. It was at the very bottom of the booking page which nobody reads, this should have beeb at the top and made clear within the overall price. The shower was barely warm and very noisy, the rooms were old and shabby, there was some underfoot bits in the carpet.
Andrew

Rooms and staff just the same good.

The room was small. The location is okay; takes about 15 min to walk to west Cambridge. But there are no sidewalks or proper traffic lights, so you have to walk a bit on a dirt road. Feel not very safe to walk after sunset. I moved to hotels in Eddington after the stay.
Amar
Despite the anticipation, travelers faced no hot water both in the evening and morning, suggesting limited capacity.
Unfortunately, reception staff member's rude and arrogant attitude further marred the experience, highlighting a lack of basic courtesy.

The room was great - clean and warm. Only one small blemish - no shampoo or decent soap in the bathroom.
Emma
Loved the romantic room as the size was amazing. A quiet location with stunning views and we loved sitting there with a cuppa and relaxing. Easy parking. Bed was comfy. Clean bathroom. We appreciated the friendly reception and close walking distance to the park and ride. This made it an excellent location.

The Hotel was beautiful our room was equipt with everything we needed tea & coffee facilities hairdryer ironing board not that we made use of them but very comfortable & the receptionist was very friendly & welcoming
Sean
We booked as it looked lovely, however, we were out in the outer building, small room, very out dated, asked fir an upgrade, yes sir, that will be another £63 , they have lots of land, but still charge for parking, would you like breakfast for £18 each sir, no I will go 300 yards down the road to the premier inn and pay £11, I thought looking at the pictures on their website, thus was going to be something special, I would recommend the premier.
Claire

Efficient receptionist who booked us in with ease.
Rectory Farm was lovely, set in it's own grounds. Easier to find than I thought.
Only stayed 1 night, but wished it was longer.
Room was very comfy in one of the annexes.
Didn't sample the breakfast as needed to be on our way quickly.
Would definitely stay again.

Perhaps the best place i have ever stayed at, relatively clean, very cosy, and conveniently within walking/ bus distance from Cambridge.
What i would have liked to be different:
-parking is 5 pounds/ day, which may not seem much, but there was no mention other than 'available on the premises'.
-heating was centrally managed- at times too hot and others almost too cold.

Clean rooms, friendly staff, quiet and beautiful area. Showers are good with good pressure in the water.
Cheryl
Beautiful welcome. Staff made it. Signposted well. Funny reception desk and makeshift bar next to it but added to the charm. Room was lovely and bed so very very comfortable.

Quilt filling had moved into clumps so no filling in places which along with the heating not working on the firdt night meant we were cold in bed. The first room we were offered room 3 had a knackered mattress.

Not enough room on hotels .com to leave a detailed review and report shortcomings.

Hotel was very nice. Our room was clean and comfortable. It's in a very good position if you want to get into Cambridge as we did. The park and ride is only a few minutes away and excellent.
But it did seem very impersonal that there was no one around during the day to go to if there was any problem.
Our bed was made but the bathroom wasn't touched so no clean towels, floor mat or the sink cleaned which is what we'd expect from a hotel.
The breakfast was very good, plenty of choice for everything. The lady in charge was lovely, very friendly and helpful.
We'd certainly stay at The Rectory Farm if we were in that area again and would recommend it.

Very clean. Warm room, welcoming and helpful staff, good shower pressure on the top floor. Coffee and tea in the room. Close to park&drive, 3 bus options to the center. Highly recommended. Thank you for a lovely stay.

I had a great stay at Rectory Farm. The rooms were spacious and comfortable. I don’t have any complaints about it
Alex
A handy spot on the outskirts of Cambridge. It had everything we needed.
Graham
Pleasing manor-house style property. Lovely and extensive grounds. The room (a suite) was large and well-appointed, with triple aspect views over carpark to the front and gardens to side and rear. When you book you are warned no soaps provided, so we brought our own, as well as towels and pillow, for our own comfort. Didn't eat at hotel so cannot comment. Hosts - interesting.

Clean room and bathroom. Bit of tiny room and the mattress was a bit tired. Would recommend for a weekend budget getaway.
Clare
Staff very helpful and nice warm atmosphere upon arrival
Johanna
Room was clean, bed was huge. Perfect stay with a dog as the door opened up onto the grass. The fields for dog walking were amazing and went on and on. Highly recommend, would definitely stay again.
Kate
Lovely
Jonathan
Cozy place with a homey atmosphere. We’ve been going there for about a year, as it’s a lovely farm. It feels like a home away from home 💚
Libby
Staff were great, efficient and friendly. Supper spot. Will stay again.

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.

This was very convenient to access the park and ride into Cambridge where you can leave your car for free. The property and was lovely, clean and quiet.

Ok for a one night stay, pity they didn’t do evening meals
