"We loved our stay! My spouse and I were initially unsure about the shared bathroom, but it turned out to be a non-issue. The grounds were delightful, and while the room was small, the design made it feel just right—cozy and well thought-out.
Breakfast was a highlight: the morning walk to it added charm, and the meal itself brought real joy. The location was excellent—peaceful yet well-connected.
I would absolutely recommend this place to friends visiting the area.

"I would have to start with saying the staff is the gem of the property. They were very accommodating and absolutely lovely to work with. Other than that, the rest of it was just outstanding."
"This is a beautiful B&B in a quiet residential area. The large garden is a perfect place to relax and defuse after a busy day. There is also a big public park a short distance away that has football nets, basketball, tennis, etc. The Holly Tree is walking distance from the bus station where there is a bus going downtown every 5 minutes. It is also walking distance from the medical complex, making it very helpful for the families of people in Addenbrook's or Royal Papworth.

"Very nice overall. The property is clean, tidy, nicely designed and in a good location.
One thing to bear in mind is the building is quite tall and narrow, with fairly steep stairs, which my elderly parents had a bit of trouble with. From what I recall, there wasn't an indication when booking of which floor we would be on. I think this would be helpful. We might have picked a different room.
Other than that, a very nice stay."
"Enjoyed the stay very much. Owner was very helpful and responsive.
The apartment had everything you need for a family stay - cooking, utensils, washing.
There’s no housekeeping during the stay and stairs to take, something to bear in mind "
"This property is immaculate with great facilities, the pristine kitchen area with free breakfast items is a really nice touch. The staff are very obliging and kept the breakfast items topped up.
There is parking at the front and the property is on a bus route, with a stop just 200 yards away for easy access to the city centre.
Overall a great choice and wouldnt hesitate to stay again."
