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.

Rectory Farm

We arrived late, the key for my room was left as instructed. Room was clean the bed was comfy. The only negatives are the room layout meant that when the door was open it felt like you were stepping straight into the bed and the soundproofing between rooms could be better.

The bed wasn’t very good, the mattress was too thin. The room was nice and warm, got a bit too hot but you can open the window. There are no staff around before 4pm

Funeral

Upgraded to the main house and after seeing the rooms in the annex I was disappointed with my upgrade. The rooms in the annex were nicer and had nicer beds.they were also slightly bigger. So not sure what I had for my upgrade??

Unfair charges

At it's most basic, Rectory Hall is completely fine. I have stayed here a few times for work in Cambridge. All the rooms I stayed in are perfectly fine. The problem is the ambiguous and unfair charging policy. This time I was charged for parking overnight. No explanation was given. My card was just charged. I did choose to have breakfast for the 1st time in ages, which is £16. Not only is it overpriced but it is poor-average.

A Disappointing Stay

The room was comfortable and quiet. However the bathroom was cold. We worked out how to switch on the towel rail from outside the room. In the cold weather it needed to be switched on. The breakfast service was well meaning but rather chaotic. Our main concern was that the room was not made up after our first night and tea, coffee, milk were not replaced. It has the potential to be very good but seemed to be run on a shoestring.

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?
