The Experience

Exemplary! Where: in a lovely, comfortable, refurbed Georgian house 20 minutes’ walk from Cambridge centre. How: with warmth, pleasure, intelligence and local knowledge. Bedrooms have good quality mattresses, bedding and towels. Characterful pieces too – antique brass bed, freestanding bath, oriental rugs on polished floors – with flowers and garden views. The breakfasts are delicious, largely organic and local: fresh fruit salad, kedgeree with smoked Norfolk haddock, home baking (three types of bread; gluten free, no problem). If you’d like to swing a cat book the biggest room; borrow vintage bikes and thoroughly enjoy your break.

Reviews

Marie, Sheffield

We had 2 very comfortable nights at 5 Chapel Street. Christine our hostess was kind, welcoming and attentive and ensured our every need was met. The breakfasts were wonderful with a wide selection of tempting dishes and home-based bread. The house is located on a quiet street within easy walking distance of the river and colleges. We will definitely return.


Heather, Maidstone

we promised to return again and we have now done so. The hospitality, ambience and comfort are as excellent as ever.


Heather, Maidstone

Perfect friendly B&B in easy walking distance from the City centre with option of bus. Lovely, well- appointed and very comfortable ensuite bedroom. Superb breakfasts. Christine is a wonderful hostess and willingly provides information about what to see and do in Cambridge. A very Special Place. Will definitely return.


Emma, Malton

My daughter and I loved our stay and Christine could not have been a better host. The rooms were spotless, comfortable, charming and breakfasts quite delicious.


David

Very prompt response to our initial enquiry. Free parking right outside the door. Friendly welcome with tea and cakes. Lovely large, comfortable room with generous bathroom. Lots of local advice about walking routes, eateries etc. Overall a very pleasant stay in an ideal B&B and we would certainly stay again when in Cambridge.


Location

The neighbourhood

Local points of interest from Christine Ulyyan

  • We are located within the heart of the old village of Chesterton, now absorbed into Cambridge but this conservation area still retains the relative tranquility of village life while being a 30 minute stroll or a short bus ride into town.
  • Round the corner there is a friendly local pub called the Haymakers, serving good local beer and excellent pizza (the chef is Italian and he has a proper pizza oven).
  • There is a fabulous cafe 5-10 minutes walk away called Stir. A real boon to our local community and offering a warm welcome and great quality food and drink - the baking is particularly good.
  • We are north-east of Cambridge city centre, so ideally situated to explore lovely Ely and its amazing cathedral, Oliver Cromwells House and Peacocks, one of the best teashops in the county.
  • The Norfolk coast is also accessible from here and makes a nice day trip, likewise parts of Suffolk such as Bury St Edmunds or a day at the races in Newmarket!
