10/10 Exceptional

The room was very lovely set outside the pub with it’s own car park and area. Very helpful and friendly staff. the village was nice with a number of food options and it even has a hardware shop, a very rare thing theses days. The room was clean and the continental breakfast was well stocked. Only one complaint was the mattress needs replacing as it was sagging and not very comfortable. We have every intention of returning but please buy a new mattress.

Ideal for a 1 night stay. May need to explain that when they say ‘breakfast included’, its a basket including cereals, croissants, biscuits and yoghurt. Not actually a hot breakfast or a breakfast menu in the pub. Lovely staff. Nice and clean room.

The room was a good size, clean and well laid out. The bed was very comfortable. Thhe bathroom was warm and shower powerful. The breakfast we knew was to be in the room and a limited offer but had everything we expected. Host was friendly and helpful. There was a good atmosphere in the pub ( no food available)

Just a quiet clean room, exactly what we needed. A pub just like 5 steps away with excellent people giving us a very warm welcome. Felt at ease straight away.

Was ok

Room was clean and ok nice and quiet, the breakfast was a bit poor as it was left in your room so was a box of cereal and milk with a shop bought croissant, plenty of places to eat within walking distance which was good

Very quiet and comfortable stay.

Very comfortable, quaint rooms. We were only there for a night but would be more than happy to spend longer there. Cooked breakfast would have been nice but we were really happy with the price so you can't have everything. The continental breakfast provided was fine. Owners were lovely and we enjoyed a drink with them in the evening.

Michelle, was a great host. The bar is lovely and quaint. A perfect pit stop for a couple of nights for myself and 3 under 14s. She made sure there was plenty for breakfast and anything we needed she was there. The rooms are bright and airy and a good sized shower space.

Delightful

what a lovely little find. unfortunately I didn't spend much time there as we were at a gig down the road but I can tell you its the best sleep I've had in a long time, so comfortable.

Ideal

We arrived later than we had planned but received a warm welcome from the hosts. We had the family room which is a good size, well decorated, warm and comfortable. The accomodation was spotless. We didnt eat there but will need to be in Cambridge in aroun 6 months time, so hoping we can stay again. Great value for money. Highly recommended.

Working locally

Upon arrival we were made to feel welcome and safe. The room was clean and dry, the only downside was being able to hear the cellar cooling machine during the night. Otherwise good.

4/10 Fair

Although the bed was clean, there was a lot of dirt in the room, including aged cereal beside the fridge, and areas that hadn’t been dusted for weeks and damaged areas in the en-suite. There was a lot of noise from the beer cellar chillers.

Cottage hotel room

Nice cottage room, beautiful outside seating area and flower boxes. Quite low ceiling pub. Was cold in the night and morning though, and couldn’t turn on any heating! Breakfast continental good products, although could’ve done with one of those little box of cereals. Floor and shower could’ve done with being more clean. Excellent value for money!

4/10 Fair

Such friendly welcoming staff-could not fault. Unfortunately the double room was quite dirty and not in the best state of repair. The twin room was very noisy as situated directly near the fans for the pub cellar. There were no clean pots for breakfast on our second day, breakfast was to be had in room (cereal, breakfast bars etc). It served our purpose but a few improvements needed.

Kings Head, Sawston.

One of four rooms in an adjacent block (so no disturbance from the pub), the room and bathroom were very clean and provided everything needed for a one-night stay. Appears to have recently been refurbished. Good-size shower cubicle and good quality towels provided. We chose twin beds and they were full-size singles, unlike those often provided in smaller hotels. Room was large, warm and well lit. Breakfast was continental and pre-packed in a small 'fridge, consisting of one croissant with buuer and jam, one pain au chocolat and one cereal bar plus a bottle of orange juice. Tea tray also provided. Adequate - especially for the price. Had a drink in the bar before going to a nearby retaurant. Decent selection of beers and natives friendly.
