Nothing was too much trouble. The studio was very comfortable, clean and had everything I needed for my 4 week stay.

The major of the property was comfortable, the bathroom was far too small, the shower almost unusable, you needed to be a contortionist to use the toilet, which was not effectivly segregated from the kitchen- the only door directly into the kitchen was a sliding door . Upstairs,the majority of the space was unusable, due to the sloping roof. This was not emphasized in the description. Unfortunately, we wouldn't stay here again, or recommend the property to others.

The location was perfect, we visited Wimpole, Anglesey Abbey, Wicken Fen and had lots of nice walks in Cambridgeshire. The cottage was exactly as we expected from the listing and photos. It was clean and comfortable and had everything we needed. The owners were next door and were friendly and helpful. We would happily stay here again.
