“Could do with a small freezer and more sockets in living room or an extension plug Other than that a lovely place to stay and have booked again for next year at no 1 for a change .”

“This cottage was bigger than we expected and very comfortable and well equipped.”

The traffic near some of the larger towns nearby was very busy and we would recommend using the station at Littleport for daytrips to other places. The actual village of Whelney only has one pub and no shops so you do need to travel to get any other supplies.

“A comfortable, well-appointed, clean cottage that was ideal for our holiday.”

Very quiet and had everything we needed, including being dog-friendly. The bed was very comfortable, the neighbours friendly and we were pleased with our choice.

“We love it when there is milk in the fridge, tea bags and washing up liquid.”

Lovely clean cottage with a fabulous pub over the road.

“A warm and cosy cottage.”

February weather predictably mixed but we always had a comfortable home to return to, particularly after an afternoon watching Lent Bumps in Cambridge and getting thoroughly chilled! The upstairs loo is such a good idea too.
