Perched beside the River Great Ouse, this country cottage is a breath of fresh air waiting to be experienced just 4 miles away from the small town of Ely. A new eco-build, bursting with style and character, the interiors present a soothing Nordic palette with bright pops of colour. Think Scandi-style furniture, bright decorative features and tons of open space. The kitchen, living room and dining space is undoubtedly the hub of the house and where the whole group can come together for home-cooked meals in and cosy moments of relaxation by the log burner. Order an Ocado, Sainsbury’s or Tesco delivery directly to the cottage in time for your day of arrival, so that the fridge is well-stocked from day one. Grab a book and snuggle up, following an afternoon of hiking and exploring the local countryside – you'll be nestled in an enviable rural location here with scenic views across the Fenland countryside. It goes without saying that the outdoorsy type will fall truly in love with this address as guests will have access to fishing, cycling, canoeing, walking and bird-watching – all in less than a twenty-minute drive away. If you're looking for a countryside retreat for... a larger group – it's worth knowing that the host also has three other cottages on-site which in total can sleep up to sixteen guests.

About Cambridge
Punting on the River Cam, dodging students as you cycle along historic lanes, and keeping off the pristine college lawns – a visit to Cambridge is like stepping into the pages of a book.
