This bright and comfortable family home in the south-east of Cambridge lies ideally between the countryside and the town, close to the University of Cambridge Botanic Garden. It’s furnished to the highest calibre and outfitted with modern appliances and comforts, benefits from cool new furniture and offers a great place from which to explore beautiful Cambridge and the surrounding area.

The big home has recently been redecorated and features an inviting and modern styling with plenty of space for children and grownups alike. All 6 bedrooms have comfortable mattresses and there are 2 bathrooms and a toilet room available throughout the home. The two main bathrooms are en suite for guests added privacy when travelling in a group. Two bedrooms comes with king size beds, three bedrooms have large double beds and one bedroom offers a fun bunk bed. The home has a lot of natural light through the big windows and offers views of the surrounding neighbourhood and the home’s own garden. You’ll find modern and comfortable furniture in the whole home and clean bathrooms with plenty of light. The kitchen is modern in both style and appliances and ready for you to use and has a bright and bright window to gaze outside. It also comes with its own breakfast bar and breakfast table with views into the garden and sky. This makes it the ideal place to gather, cook and laugh together. It connects to the homes large dining room which in turn is connected to the living room, giving you ample modern open plan living space. The living room is perhaps the most special place in this large home, it’s located in the conservatory, flooding it with light and offering great views into the garden. You’ll have complete access to the garden to relax or simply to eat and drink outside in good weather. The living room is equipped with a large and relaxing armchair, a bean bag chair and big sofas, perfect for an evening with friends or family after a long day of exploring Cambridge. Watching movies, reading books or playing games, you’ll be spoilt for choice. The home also comes with high-speed WiFi and offers lots of space should you want to get some work done.

You’ll have access to the home at all times. Because the home comes with smart locks, you’ll be able to check in any time after 3pm, but please be mindful of noise after 9pm.

Please reach out through this listing if you have any questions, as I am always on call and available to my guests if needed.

The home is located in the lovely new and sought-after neighbourhood in the south of Cambridge, close to many picture-perfect Cambridge University Colleges and the University’s Botanic Garden. It’s also a short distance from many of the town's attractions such as the Bridge of Sighs, Kings College Chapel, the Fitzwilliam Museum and countless other attractions, restaurants, bars, shops, pubs and coffee shops.

Given the location of the home, most of the town is within walking distance or only a very short drive away. Trains as well as bus routes closely connect Cambridge to most other cities in the UK. There are affordable Taxis and Uber as well as public transport available should you not want to walk.

The home can be a little tricky to find but the check-in guide has a detailed explanation of how to find it. There’s also a phone number to call at any time if you’ll need help locating it. The home is spread across multiple levels and guests who have difficulties with stairs may find it hard to access the whole home. The home has lots of natural light and is beautifully bright throughout.

Please, no parties or smoking. Please be respectful of the neighbours and keep noise to a minimum after 9pm. If these rules are violated we will charge guests to cover the security call out fee and any additional expenses to cover their misbehaviour.

The property is good value for the money, location was good since we knew Cambridge well so knew how to get about. The Kitchen range was good for a 6 bed and appreciated. The property was good apart for the low hanging tree at the entrance which we found with the roof of the van we had, The property could use some updating but when it warmed up was perfect for us. On the whole would rent this again.

The rental company (StayBeyond) that operates this property has extremely strange expectations of what is reasonable to ask of guests and could do with being upfront about this and avoiding giving the impression that you are booking directly with a host. Our booking seemed fine until we had to get in contact with them at the time that our final payment was due as we had received no communication about how to pay. At this point we received a message saying that our booking was not confirmed until we had completed “security checks”. We were required to answer a series of questions about our visit and told that by continuing we were confirming that ALL guests were aged over 28. We were asked to send photos of IDs and selfies of everyone holding up the ID for every adult staying in the property. Eventually (took 11 days of chasing from us) we were able to clarify that the age policy only applied to the person booking the trip (as we had originally expected from the wording in the listing). We provided our IDs despite our reservations about why ID could reasonably be required for all guests. We were provided with a contract that contained alarming clauses such as the home being fitted with noise monitors. Even after we had done this we continued to receive unnecessary, intrusive questions about ourselves that we were told were part of the security checks. For example, having explained that we had a shared hobby of working on a game fansite we were told that we had to provide a link to the website. The night before the trip it became apparent that StayBeyond were not going to provide us the access codes to check in until we answered the questions. The house was generally pretty comfortable and seemed clean but was overall not worth the hassle we had in booking it. It is clearly a rental property rather than a home and could do with some maintenance. A large number of the doors were faulty: the main bathroom door could not not be fully shut and bedroom doors became jammed and could not be opened from the inside when fully closed. Lights in half of the kitchen did not work and lighting is not great in the living room area. We could not use the conservatory as it has no heating and was too cold to sit in. The house was not “fully stocked” as described: there was not enough kitchen equipment for a large group and basic items such as cleaning products, additional toilet paper and foil were not provided.

Some problems
Some problems
We visited this property as the one we originally had booked had some maintenance issues. It was significantly smaller (and advertised for a lower price) than the original one. The management agreed a reduction on the cost. This has not yet been refunded. I specifically asked about the heating in the large conservatory. I was told that there would be a working heating system. This consisted of a 2K electric convector heater. We could not get the temperature up to a comfortable level until the third evening. Shame because it was a very nice spacious room and the other seating areas were somewhat small. They would have been very cramped if there had been 10 adults and two children rather than the 6 +2 in our party. I also asked if baby gates could be provided and was told that they could. There were NO baby gates provided. I could have brought my own if accurate information had been given. The kitchen was small but adequate for us. The dining area seated 8. Three on a bench seat. The general appearance of the house was rather 'tired' The road on which the house was situated was completely closed at one end for changes to the roundabout. (will be for some months) We were not forwarded of this. Fortunately we happened to arrive at the end that provided access to the street. Our grocery delivery van driver was not so lucky and had to phone us for instructions then make a long detour.

A comfortable stay for 10 people even though it’s listed for 11 as the extra guest will have to make up bed on sofa in living room and therefore would get no privacy or sofa could not be used during day unless you have to remake bed every night. Would be better suited to put a sofa bed in gym room?! House looked much better online but on closer inspection needed a little tlc. Mould in bathrooms that you could smell, carpets heavily stained and worn, table in kitchen damaged, grass in garden needed mowing, plug sockets in rooms loose therefore a hazard especially with young children. House was set in a good location but you would not want to walk into town centre as stated online! Far too long! All in all a pleasant family break away.
