I absolutely fell in love with this location. I can't wait to go back. It was so tastefully decorated and well stocked. Everything that was needed was there. An artist is responsible for leasing this property and her gorgeous work is everywhere. It's a very peaceful place.

We had a lovely stay here. Nice owners and a lot of peace an quiet. A welcome with a box of chocolate, yummie, and after a day of traveling that is very pleasant with a cup of tea.The kitchen is well equipped. Even with a freezer! But the village has also a lot of pubs with good food so we did not used the kitchen for cooking, more for making breakfast.For the two of us it was more then enough room. There was a spare room so if one wants to do something else it was possible. And sometimes you might need that for whatever reason.The only thing was the height of the ceilings. For normal people like me no problem but for my tall husband (1,88 cm) well, with his shoes on he had to take care at the doorway to the kitchen.You can tell the owners put love in the cottage. In decorating and furnishing the cottage. It was a pleasant place to be when we were not out and about.

Loved our little place in Grantchester- it was so quaint and had everything we needed. Grantchester is a lovely little village. Parking was available just outside, the unit was clean and it was the perfect size for us. The place is decorated with the host's artwork which is lovely. Our hosts, Tess and her husband, lived next door and were always available (but we had no problems). The location is quiet and an easy drive to Cambridge. I highly recommend this property and would stay here again if I was in the area.
