A very well appointed cottage, spotlessly clean in a beautiful setting. So comfortable and well set up for humans and my dog. The owner had provided everything you could need especially a very comfortable bed with lovely linen and towels. My five days were enhanced by being able to walk my dog from the door and having a secure back garden with good seating. The reservoir walk gave a lovely view of the land, grazing cattle and seeing the geese and swans coming in to land was a bonus. I would highly recommend this cottage and hope to return in the future.

The cottage is tastefully furnished with lots of facilities for a great stay. The starter pack and scrumpy brownies were very welcoming. You have beautiful surroundings. Lovely walks for your dog. Even foot golf which looked fun. Ideally situated for Ely and Cambridge.

The owners had thought of everything down to the last detail of colour coordinated furnishings and kitchen equipment. We were so pleased to see how seriously environmental issues were taken including the geothermal heating and recycling. The cottage afforded a high level of privacy whilst ensuring a high level of security in a very pleasant setting.the person managing the stay was very pleasant and helpful and her chocolate brownies were to die for!. Thank you Gravel Farm for an enjoyable stay.
