The staff were polite and courteous. The accommodation was a wooden construction in the yard. There is an open porch over the front door and it was littered with cigarette stumps. The room was clean as was the toilet and shower. The bed and towels were also clean. The toilet/shower room was a little cramped and the window would not open. The cutlery consisted of one teaspoon, no knife to spread butter and no spoons to eat the breakfast cereal. The TV did not work despite two attempts by the managers to fix it. Later I retuned the TV and it worked perfectly. The mattress was uncomfortable, hard and lumpy. We went into the bar at nine o’clock and it was closed. We asked for a drink to take to our room and were told that the till was closed. Would we stay again? Probably not.

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.

Below standard but nice staff.
Moved us rooms as had a problem with the 1st room so don't know if this was a back up room. However was awake from the rain falling of a blocked guttering splashing on tarmac outside and someone couldn't tell where from, was clomping around in boots on a wooden floor from early hours. Bed was comfy and it was warm inside but overall with the tired appearance of the room a leaking shower tray and continental breakfast it just wasn't wasn't worth the money. Cafe 100 yrds up the road does a nice breakfast though.

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.

We were in a double room but there is no mirror, yes, one mirror high up on the wall there are no dressing table for me to get ready to go to a Wedding, the bathroom is very small, no room to move to put my make up on and to comb my hair etc etc. Very disappointing , the first day no spoon for making tea, no knife to use the butter and jam and croissant were frozen in fridge as our breakfast ???

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.

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.

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!

Nice and comfortable place to stay
This was really nice, clean rooms and comfortable amenities. My only issue was that I didn't know how to contact them in the morning before checking out, we wanted to get more toilet paper and hand them the key. So just more communication about how to reach them if we needed anything would have been helpful. My phone wasn't working so I couldn't call.
