Excellent stay, and always feels so at home even 40 years after matriculation! Excellent value for money, and the buffet breakfast was super good, had all we need including excellent gluten free range - thank you. Thanks to the Accommodation Office for considering my rooming requests. Looking forward to the next time.

Large modern room with desk and ensuite bathroom immaculately clean. Excellent efficient service from the porters in the lodge helping me with directions to my next location in Cambridge. Substantial breakfast with wide variety of options. Perfect for an overnight stay if the location is right
