This was an an enjoyable experience, particular for a sole traveller. The accommodation was clean and comfortable and the proprietors were extremely friendly and helpful. Breakfast (which was very good food) was an enjoyable social experience meeting other guests that you do not tend to get with staying at a larger chain hotel. Very relaxing and quiet rural location, easy for getting out and visiting Ely or Cambridge.

Highly Recommended Stay

The room was clean, fresh and comfortable. The breakfast freshly cooked and the surrounding fields full of interesting wildlife. Don't miss the donkeys. Our host was very welcoming and a good conversationalist. They did everything possible to ensure our stay was enjoyable. It is ideally located for visiting Ely and surrounding areas. We look forward to returning on the near future.

An experience

Stayed one night clean room but a bit musty smelling , Owner Shaun very friendly and helpful, food was not to our liking and was undercooked for our taste , Road approaching was a dirt track filled with pot holes full of water, All in all a weird experience.

You - Hotels.com - list the property as Wilburton. That's wrong. It's Witchford, about 4 miles from Wilburton. I learned that I have been charged for two people in a twin room whereas I booked for just myself. I'd appreciate a refund. Your website isn't terribly clear. The property is very pleasant. Enjoyed my stay. Lovely breakfast, friendly & accommodating host, excellent shower and good night's sleep.

Really enjoyed my stay here, the owners are very friendly, and the breakfast was fantastic. If I was to really, really 'nitpick' the WiFi signal was a little weak and I ended up reverting back to my mobile data, but everything else was brilliant and I'll definitely be booking here again if and when the opportunity arises. Have already recommended to several colleagues.

Incredibly kind hosts that went out of their way for me, allowing me to check in early as well as giving me a lift back into town for a wedding. Real, genuine people. Delicious home cooked breakfast arranged the night before. Secluded property off a gravel lane with only nature's noise to be heard. A real off-the-beaten-path gem. Loved being able to see donkeys, rabbits, and other wildlife right from my window. Great shower, warm bedding, and comfortable bed. Only qualm was that the walls were a bit thin and I could hear some other guests chatting in the middle of the night, but wasn't too loud so was still able to sleep. Will definitely stay again if we are in the area. Thank you for a lovely stay!

Lovely stay at the Woodlands. The owner and his wife couldn't be nicer people. It's a nice change from the homogenised and impersonal experience you normally find at the typical chain hotels. The setting of the place was so nice aswell. Lovely trees, beautiful countryside and the nice older buildings... it made it feel unique. Breakfast was excellent and the whole vibe of the place was relaxed. I would stay here again!
