Traditional hotel in convenient spot
Pros:

Very convenient location. Traditional hotel with small number of rooms and attached conference facilities. Continental breakfast included which we didn't expect.

Cons:

Lack of water pressure - tried to run bath but it would have taken 15 minutes to fill.

Pros:

A very nice hotel , walking distance from the town centre . The room was comfortable.

Cons:

Sadly this was a major issue which I took up with the General Manager . The buffet breakfast was what could only be called a disgrace. Very little food available , we complained at the time to the member of staff we could find . T o be told the kitchen was bare yes that's correct . Add insult to injury some of the fruit that was available had mould on it ( blueberries ) I delayed these comments as we were offered a full breakfast refund however as yet this is still not been forthcoming .

Although the location was lovely and included free on site parking I could not recommend this hotel to anyone else.
Pros:

Location to the town

Cons:

How clean the room was, although we were told about it being a wedding venue the music was so loud and went on until after midnight. The temperature of the shower was too hot and could not be controlled.

Perfect location outside of Cambridge and close to the lakes. Great value compared to Cambridge. Would recommend
Pros:

Nice decor, well kept. Quiet location but close to the town

Cons:

The double room/ bed was way too small. Even for two kids it was two small- two adults would not fit in a small double bed. Some issue with cold water not working in the bath which made it difficult to use as piping hot.
