Lovely digs with own bathroom and the dressing gown and slippers were a lovely touch. A little further out although I walked back along the main road and felt quite safe as it was always quite busy. Lovely friendly hosts. Thanks so much for having me

18th Feb 2024
what a lovely place to stay! Lovely house and very cute dog Maisie. Bonus points for your own bathroom. I would just say I borrowed a bike (main way to get around Cambridge) and it was SO useful for getting in and out quickly. Would definitely stay again! It is great value in comparison to usual Cambridge prices :)
8th Jan 2024
Glad you were able to experience the ‘real’ Cambridge on a bike! Most definitely best way to get around. 😉
A wonderfully comfortable and Quiet place to stay. Would definitely stay again Diana and Ian were perfect hosts.

28th May 2023
Lovely house and room, lovely people. The walk into the Arts Theatre is something of a trek (30-35 mins) but doable. Affordable and comfortable though, so I enjoyed my stay very much.

Lovely bright room with en-suite. Quiet road. 35 min walk to theatre.
Frequent buses home. Would definitely stay again.
16th Apr 2023
Clean, good value digs in a lovely friendly house. Buses into the centre; the walk - c. 40 mins - is lovely if the weather is good. Ubers / taxis cost £8/9. Grand Arcade car park is free after 6pm; parking otherwise is prohibitive. Thanks Diana !
9th Apr 2023
Diana was such a lovely host and the room had everything I needed, including a super comfy bed.
I’d definitely rebook when back in Cambridge

Great digs, really respectful hosts in terms of privacy and space. The digs are a 30 minute walk from the Arts, but that's made clear on the ad and the walk is really safe, even when I was making it late at night.

Thank you Liyah, you were a super guest and will be always welcome back.
A lovely, clean house. I got bumped up to the top floor with an en suite free of charge which was a lovely surprise, and also helpful as it was semi self-contained in these covid times. Lovely hosts too!
13th Mar 2022
Brilliant place to stay, Diana is a perfect host.

13th Nov 2018
Lovely return visit. Comfy bed. Total privacy, a joy, thank you. I cycled in. But there is a bus. The walk I estimate around 35-40mins. But only my estimation. Happily stay here anytime I'm in Cambridge. Easy to park at as well. Thank you.
29th Oct 2018
Glad it worked for you Timi, you're always welcome.
Beautiful room with such a comfy bed. Diana is so lovely & friendly & made me feel welcome yet allowed me space. It is a way out of Cambridge but it’s a beautiful 40min walk or regular buses. Don’t let that put you off. I’d definitely stay again.
30th Sep 2018
Thank you Naomi, it was good to meet you, and you'll be most welcome to come again.

Diana is lovely - beautiful home - slightly further out of town than you’d like but didn’t affect me. I found the nearest OFO bicycle and cycled into the arts theatre in 10-12 mins. Would stay again without question. Very sweet dog too!! Thanks! X
1st Apr 2018
Thanks Raph! Was lovely to have you, and we look forward to welcoming you back!
Wow!! Very comfy and I'm hard to please. Great not being hassled with 'good show?' I cycled in. A walk would've been too far. Think buses are convenient. Would definitely come back again. thank you. Great room with ensuite loo and basin.
25th Mar 2018
Really lovely digs and hosts. It's an easy walk into the theatre but it does take 35-40 mins. I felt very welcome, and it's one of the comfiest beds I've ever slept in!

Lovely home and the room is gorgeous, Diana responded quickly to any questions I had. Brilliant stay.
16th Mar 2017
Diana and her house are marvellous. She had thought of everything. The bed was extremely comfortable.The only drawback was the distance to the theatre. What you save in rent you might pay in taxi's, buses parking or footwear!
26th Feb 2017
Thanks Jax! Was lovely to meet you. Glad you enjoyed the bed!

9th Jul 2016
Kris came and went - very quiet and no trouble - sorry about the toilet seat! All fixed in a jiffy.
Very Nice Digs,
Just under 5mins to the Bus stop, for the frequent bus service into the centre of town.
Or on a nice day about a 25/30min walk.
Very clean, and had everything you need whilst on tour.
Thank you Diana
5th Jun 2016

Would recommend this to anyone staying in Cambridge!

So friendly and accommodating.
Lovely room in lovely house.
Great week.
6th Sep 2015
The room is bigger than it looks in the pic. in a big house where I felt very welcome.
Met Diana briefly before she went away and other members of the family passed through.
It is quite a way from the Town Centre but there is a bicycle...or I got cheap city centre parking through Justpark.com.
Recommend.

I wouldn't hesitate to stay here again.
23rd Feb 2015
It was perfect.
The hosts were warm and friendly and made me feel welcome and left me to my own devices after showing me the ropes.
The house was lovely and my room was spacious, clean and comfortable. The bed was ultra snug. And there was an adorable doggy who liked to chat to me.
Wouldn't hesitate to stay here again.
