Property information

A warm welcome to Rectory Farm. We seek to provide the very best value for money at an affordable rate. We take pride in our very competitive room rates and work hard to provide a clean, warm room where you can relax and unwind. We are not a “Bells and Whistles” hotel but we are surrounded by outstanding gardens and fields which you are most welcome to walk in and enjoy. As we strive to keep our rates extremely competitive we have made some changes to our bathrooms. We only provide a small bar of soap and one large towel per person. This is also a tiny contribution to saving and conserving our planet so that the world we live in becomes a better safer place. In 50 acres of grounds, Rectory Farm is 2 miles from Cambridge centre. This country house offers free Wi-Fi, parking for a small charge, and a seasonal outdoor swimming pool open from June until September. This pool is available to our guests only and can be enjoyed for a small charge. Set in a grand period building, the elegant bedrooms each have a private modern bathroom and tea/coffee facilities. Rooms also feature a TV and hairdryer, and all have scenic countryside views. We are a pet friendly hotel if you would like to bring your dog please call reception in regards to charges and to book a chalet double room only.
