    It was an easy trip into Ely, with many things to do there. There is a very useful map of Ely, with car parks, on the local authority website. And the Fens were on our door step. From the living room window you can see, across the many flat fields, Ely Cathedral. Everything worked as expected and the problem with the 'hard to read' WiFi password was fixed within a couple of hours, thanks to the housekeeper. A stepping stool would be a useful addition to the kitchen as the wall cupboards are quite high.

  • Bryan

    Great location for many local attractions. In common with many holiday properties we have stayed in the kitchen could do with a towel rail!

  • Frederick

    Great location. Ideal for the fens, Ely and Cambridge. Would book again.
