    Plenty of information and a lovely treat of chocolate brownies left for us. There was ample supply of washing liquid etc and plentiful lovely soft bathroom towels. Bed and bedding very comfortable. Possibly a shame that there's not a freezer, but we were only staying for 5 days and found the freezer box sufficient for our needs. Shower room was great for us with the big walk in shower - our daughter has mobility issues and this was perfect for her. Again, very tastefully decorated. Very impressed with the eco- friendliness of the place, solar panels, heat pump etc. It feels like a lot of thought, time and effort has gone into making and keeping the cottage in such a beautiful condition. Some lovely walks on the doorstep and beautiful relaxing surroundings. Small town of Streatham close by with Chinese takeaway, post office, pub and shop and only 15 mins drive or a bus ride from Ely. All in all, a great stay and will definitely consider booking here again on our next trip visiting this part of the world.
