We had a lovely stay at this great little home away from home. A good size apartment, nice decor, balcony and the perfect location for us to visit friends close by. Easy walk into town and a stoneâs throw from the railway station. Very responsive hosts as well.
This was our second time booking this property. As usual, the owners are welcoming (even with self check in/out) and respond quickly with any questions. We had a wonderful time with family for Christmas and New Yearâsâthe only bad part was having to leave Cambridge. Highly recommend this flat/Amy and John!
The flat was perfect for our 6 day visit to Cambridge. Staying at the train station was very convenient, just a 10 minute walk up Hills Road to central Cambridge and many University schools/departments and colleges. Being so close to the Botanic Garden was a bonus and we'd highly recommend a visit. With a Sainsbury's Local on the corner and M&S and Tesco a few store fronts away, getting staples, breakfast food, snacks and drinks was so easy...not to mention a few coffee shops There were even a couple of food trucks for casual evening dining. The flat's balcony overlooks a nice little green and the location was very quiet and private. We had a rental car and found occasional parking in Pay & Display spots across from the flat (free after hours!) and also used the station parking lot is just down the block. If you have a rental car and need parking for several days, we'd recommend buying a week's pass for the station. Amy was very responsive and helpful in the run up to our visit. All in all we were really please with the flat and would definitely stay there again when in town.
Well equipped modern flat with everything needed for short or long stay. Two minutes from the train station - about twenty minute walk into center of Cambridge. Quicker by bus or bicycle. Quiet loacation as flat faces into a small park.
This flat is wonderfully appointed, quiet, and in an excellent location. Walking into central Cambridge and the colleges is a straightforward 30 minute walk, and it is so easy to take the bus. I was doing research and this flat was the perfect respite at the end of long days. The nearness of places like M & S Simply Food (my favorite) makes eating in really easy. Amy and Johnâs lovely and creative information book was spot on and perfectly helpful. I can not recommend this place more highly.
Everything was in its place. Great location and ample facilities for night and morning stay. Bus route nearby and a store for breakfast food. I recommend this to couples and look forward to staying there again.
Great location; convenient to rail station and grocery stores. Quiet place to stay. Comfy beds--even the sofa bed. Appreciate the quality of the cotton bed linens and towels! Everything is in top notch working order and VERY clean! We so appreciated discovering the small milk in the refrigerator and snacks upon arrival/after traveling. Thank you again for allowing us to stay at your lovely flat!
Newer apartment walking distance from the City Centre
Clean, bright and well equipped apartment close to train station, cafes and restaurants . We walked to the city centre and also took the taxi, 6-7ÂŁ. We appreciated being a little removed from the more touristy areas.
This is a superb apartment ideally located for the station, shops, restaurants etc.
Perhaps surprisingly it is also very quiet: ideal for work in the day and the evenings.
Very impressed with the apartment. It was excellently fitted out and very clean. On the first floor but didn't hear any noise from the neighbours.
A couple of minutes walk from the station but no train noise. The station is well provided with buses into the centre though we walked in taking 20-30 minutes.
Went for a walk along the Cam, visited Bury St Edmunds, Ickworth, Wimpole Estate including the farm and an excellent trip to the IWS Duxford. IWS is well worth a full day visit.
For parking at the apartment we got a week pass at the station car park for ÂŁ46.
We have truly enjoyed staying in this apartment. It faces not the street but an interior courtyard so itâs really quiet, and it really feels like itâs brand new. The communication with the owners before the reservation was fast and friendly. Absolutely recommended for anyone getting to Cambridge by train.
Location, location, location -- this flat is very near the train station and a 15 min walk from the middle of town. It's very well equipped and surprisingly quiet. Cute little balcony gives you some outdoor space as well.

Thank you for the wonderful apartment
Dear reader, if you are looking for a short holiday in Cambridge this is a very nice apartment close to the train station and on 10 min walk from City Centre Cambridge. A very quite place to stay and all facilities are in the area. Like a super market or restaurants. We very much enjoyed the area and a lot of things to see and do. In the apartment a good bed, bath and cooking facilities. We are going to recomended this to our friends. THANK YOU.

Well appointed, well located and quiet
A perfect place to stay in Cambridge. It was a short walk into town and very well appointed. Bed was comfortable, shower powerful, kitchen well equipped and the flat was stylishly furnished so felt comfortable and homely. If I was being picky the kitchen bin was my least favourite item - what a faff to throw oneâs rubbish away! But would highly recommend and would definitely like to stay again when in Cambridge.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in Cambridge, and John and Amy's delightful flat was a treat! Excellent central location, close to restaurants and groceries and the train station. The flat was comfortable, quiet, very well-equipped, light and bright, with all sorts of thoughtful touches not usually found in rental units. We felt like privileged guests! The balcony overlooking a central garden was a grand surprise. Amy is a sweetheart! We'll definitely try to stay with John and Amy again on our next visit to Cambridge. Thanks a million!
Our family has lived and worked and even studied in the area for a long time so we know it well and are always happy to pass on any advice we can. As a family we are foodies so in particular we can recommend the best that Cambridge has to offer from our experience. We are also keen cyclists and can provide bikes and suggested routes on request.
This is a family run small business, as frequent travellers ourselves for both business and pleasure we know how important it is to have somewhere to stay that can feel like a home from home. When we set up the apartment we wanted to create a space that would be able to cater for the business city worker and could also feel equally comfortable to someone visiting the beautiful city of Cambridge. This apartment is perfectly located to help us achieve this goal.
Cambridge is a fascinating city to explore and a place we love. The apartment is ideally situated to easily enjoy the city life. We loved its location and the high standard of the build when we saw it, its blank walls allowed us to input our stamp on the place. The decor and furniture is all handpicked by us, even down to the photos on the walls which we took. If you would just like to take in the city at your own pace then some of the highlights would include; The University, the punting, the Fitz William Museum, the Botanical Gardens and of course the shopping.
