We were delighted to be back again for a weekend away in historic, beautiful Ely. The cottage is perfect for us, so convenient, clean, well-maintained, along with great decor, and also has great amenities. Andrew is a great host, helpful, friendly and professional.Despite being in the middle of a heat wave, the cottage remained relatively cool, and some powerful fans if we needed them.We had dinner and played cards in the pretty courtyard in the warm evenings Just perfect! So much to see and do within a short walk, amazing bakery and cafe too! We had a lovely time, thank you.

We really enjoyed our second stay at this great house in an excellent location in Ely. We enjoyed the Saturday market, breakfast on the riverside, Ely Aquafest and best of all our family gathering. The house was spotlessly clean, very comfortable and we enjoyed the added extras including Fans for each room as it was very warm, beautiful flowering tubs in the private garden and the makings for a lovely cuppa and cookies on our arrival after a long journey.

This was a perfect little cottage for me, my husband and our Westie for a couple of days visiting Ely. On a little quiet one way road, behind the church, with a view of the cathedral tower out of the spare room window. Lovely little courtyard with patio table, we ate our brekky out there one morning. Comfy sofas and everything you need in the kitchen, from foil to washing up liquid, toaster to coffee machine. Soap and towel in the downstairs loo too. Parking space was great, we didn't move the car all the time we were there, as you could walk everywhere. Also, love having a pint of milk and choccy biccies waiting for you when you first get in, which was very easy, using the keysafe.

We enjoyed our stay here! The location of the house is perfect for accessing everything in the centre of Ely especially the cathedral. Also having the parking space is a real bonus. The property is clean, the kitchen is well equipped and the sofas are very comfortable. The bed in the main bedroom is on the firm side for us but that is down to personal taste. I would definitely recommend this property and thank you for the biscuits!
