Pointers Guest House

The location is ideal for business meetings in a serene environment. Guests lauded the attentive hosts, spotless rooms, delicious breakfast, and spacious, well-equipped rooms with lovely garden views.

This is a spacious and pleasant bed and breakfast in a tranquil location. Comfortable room nice bathroom with a good walk in shower and separate bath . Arrival was slightly difficult as we did not have the code to the electric gates although I had let the owner know of our long journey from Plymouth and the desire therefore to check in a little earlier., and was advised no problem . We could hear dogs barking but despite 3 calls no one answered the phone . My husband then left me with the car and walked around 100 yards to the house where he found the code on the desk , the door being open . It wasn’t ideal so I recommend you are sure to ask for the code specifically before your arrival . I am not a massive fan of dogs and the loud barking of 3 large animals was off putting. The owner did explain and apologised for that the next day and all was quiet for the second day and night . The decor is dated but pleasant and clean . A lot of breakable ornaments in the room and bathroom too were a slight concern but thankfully no breakages occurred. A good breakfast served piping hot . As a plus size lady I found the dining chairs uncomfortable and that would probably mean we wouldn’t return - but it’s a good place to stay if you need to be in this area and much quieter than other areas nearby ..

I booked in 2 guests who my company contracts to write software The host kindly provided a conference room for myself, my 2 guests and a locally based software contactor which we used free of charge for 4 days whilst we worked. The host provided at minimal cost, morning elevenses, light lunch and afternoon snacks with hot drinks all of which were very prompt and well presented. Our host and his wife prepared home baked cakes and scones all of which made us very welcome. To my disappointment, my guests left a damaging and unnecessary review - and it is to this end that I would like to redress the imbalance of that review with this one. I feel that I am justified in this because it was my company paying the bill and as such my review is as important as that left by my guests the content of which I wholly disassociate myself and my company from. Our host was in all respects courteous and considerate, providing a good service at all times when I was present and I assume this was so when I was not. The Guest House is well kept with a spacious conservatory looking over well kept gardens with a large duck pond to one side with a fountain - quite a tranquil place to enjoy a first class full-english breakfast to set one on the way for the day ahead. If you are looking for a night spot or disco, don't bother booking - if you are looking for a homely and tranquil place from which to discover the surrounding Fenland beauty during the day or walks in the countryside, then don't hesitate to book.
