About as perfect as a B&B can get. Small, secluded, gorgeous location (on a village green with 2 nice pubs on it!), car park is around the back and easy, also - easy check-in (self check in is lovely after a hard day's work), then you start to notice the little touches - breakfast forms to order for the next morning (the full English breakfast was gorgeous BTW), the shower head turned slightly sideways so you can test the temperature before getting in, the towels are huge and plenty fluffy, everything flawlessly clean, so many kinds of tea in the room (camomile? yay!), a TV which works (you'd be surprised...), nice pillows, a good solid mattress, lot of USB charging points, nice oraganery area to relax in, the rooms are plenty spacious... This is a great little place, and the guys running it are clearly on the top of their game. Recommended!

What a find! Last minute booking and the hosts couldn’t have been more accommodating. Lovely clean rooms, furnished to very high standards. Great shower-room. We had already contacted wonderful sleep! All needs catered for - it was a hot spell and a there was a very good fan in situ. Breakfast was excellent and home-cooked to order. Great location in an attractive village. Super friendly and welcoming hosts.

Lisa and her other half are fabulous hosts, friendly and very welcoming. 5 star breakfasts on each of the 3 mornings we were there. Bit of an inconvenience not being able to access our room after following the instructions we received by text to do this, but Lisa was quick to resolve. Not many coat hangers in room - perhaps more suitable for one night stays. Easy access to Cambridge, Ely etc by train (train station around 10 minutes walk away) and trains roughly every 30 minutes. Struggled to find much of interest within walking distance. Overall, a really pleasant stay.

Well located, safe off street parking, spotlessly clean, lovely soft towels, comfy bed and a great breakfast with quality ingredients. Several local pubs within walking distance. A really friendly feel. Can’t fault this place. Will be back.

Lisa and Phil run an amazing B&B. Everything was perfect from beginning to end. The room was very clean and comfortable. Breakfast fantastic. Nothing was too much trouble both for Lisa. Both Phil and Lisa do whatever they can to make your stay pleasurable and memorable. We felt like friends, not just guests. Excellent location for Cambridge. Nicely situated in central Waterbeach. We were travelling from Australia, visiting friends, and thoroughly enjoyed our stay. 10 out of 10.

We stayed for one night while on business The building is a quirky old place and had been a school! The large rooms have been divided into a number of cosy well appointed rooms Check in was self service and very well organised Ordering breakfast was via a well designed form Lisa and Phil are lovely and we met them at breakfast! Breakfast is one of the best I've ever had, all freshly cooked by Phil! Highly recommended

Cambridge Sightseeing Stayed for two nights, visiting Cambridge but wanting to avoid the city-centre hotels. Great location - Waterbeach Station is 5 mins walk from where its 2 stops / £3 to Cambridge Central. Accommodation was ideal. Lisa made arrival simple, and the room was comfortable, quiet and well equipped. Breakfast was delicious and Lisa very friendly and helpful. Will definitely come again.
