Check in is not easy and no one answers the phone at reception so you’re left standing around waiting

Modern tech, but could use a few tweaks
A stunning farm and hotel, with a good atmosphere and conveniently located. There are a few things that I think need tweaking, however: I booked via the app and was allocated a room with a digital key, which worked perfectly, but this doesn't allow access to the building with the coffee and snack room (which requires a fob). Once I did have access to this room, the coffee machine was a huge source of frustration and painfully slow with it's transactions. After 10 mins of arguing with it, I eventually gave up. The heating was switched off (unless I'm being daft, but the radiators were warm initially) during the night - while I understand the need for this, it makes it unpleasant for guests arriving late to the hotel. There were no extra blankets so it ended up being an uncomfortably cold night. Lastly, the mattress in room H4 could do with some updating as I could feel the springs in it.

Peaceful, beautiful location for a relaxing break.
Lovely peaceful location, with the added extra of horses and sheep on the grounds. Hotel rooms basic but clean and hygienic. Close to Cambridge town centre around a 10min drive away as well as a local garden centre; a place to have breakfast and a local pub (5* food was amazing) called The Plough and Cotton.

It was disappointing that there were no members of staff, we also tried to go to the snacks and drinks bar and there was no one there either. The room was in lovely condition but sad that there were no shower amenities.

Decent for the price
For the price, especially in/around cambridge I thought the room was okay. The building and grounds are beautiful. I didn’t enjoy the many many messages and emails I received in advance to arrange payment and deposit payment. It’s very rare these days to have to pay a deposit. When I arrived checking in was like an orienteering exercise to find key and room. Not what you need in the dark after a long day travelling. I enjoy arriving at hotels and seeing a person at reception, it’s part of the experience for me and while I imagine the lack of service is what helps to keep the price lower, it does significantly impact the overall experience. That’s a personal preference. Location isn’t bad especially if you’re driving.
