Beautiful Madingley Hall and Gardens.

Madingley Hall really is beautiful and the grounds are incredible. It is the most wonderful place to explore and we spent a lot longer than we thought we would wandering the grounds and the house. The history of the house and gardens is of course fascinating and there is an abundance of information available on both. The staff are extremely friendly and work hard to make your stay a memorable one. They are also very knowledgeable about the history of Madingley and happy to answer questions. Breakfast was great although I'd prefer non filter coffee but that's not really an issue. The food was plentiful, good quality and hot! We'll definitely be back. We have more exploring to do and would love to see the gardens through the seasons.

Never stayed in such a lovely old building full of character. Park and ride 5 minutes by car £3.50 return into cambridge. Three horseshoes pub 5 minute walk away. 8 of us over 60 stayed and we all loved it. Thank you.

Bien situé, tranquille. Impossible de joindre l'hôte via le courriel hotels.com mais on aurait pu aller cogner à la porte à côté si notre question avait été urgente. Donc à part la communication, tout a été parfait.

The hotel is located inside an absolutely gorgeous building that is also used as the continuing education classrooms of Cambridge. The main hall is also used as an event venue that is frequented by other colleges of Cambridge. There are multiple gardens outside of establishment that are very large and made a morning or evening stroll quite lovely. The bedroom area in comparison is much more modest, as the rooms and hallways of this area was very much Bauhaus inspired - simple, clean, and comfortable.

I liked the property much. Lovely, interesting buildings; full of character. Very helpful staff and tasty breakfasts. Only problem was the bath which I found a bit slippery. I think it needs some kind of treatment to make it non slip. Otherwise very good visit.

Outstanding exteriors, poor interiors

Breakfast: just enough, should have been better, but the room: too poor. The ones showed at the website are totally different. It´s a fake publication.

What a stunning setting. As it is still part of Cambridge University the bedrooms are basically for students. The small double room we were in is basic but with beautiful linen, good quality towels and curtains. The building itself and the gardens are wonderful to walk around and enjoy. Highly recommend. Use madingley park and ride to get into the city centre.
