Silverwood Lodge Guest House - Cambridgeshire (county)

Nice B and B. great service. But not very conveniently located. the Indian place across the street is great but nothing else very close.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

This place is beautiful. It's a warm, inviting guesthouse/bed & breakfast (NOT a hotel). The room we had was very large, big windows looking on the back lawn (where there are chickens!), and a very large, clean, modern, private bath. We felt at-home, welcomed, and safe during our stay. The breakfast in the morning is phenomenal. Paul (owner) is great-- […] we loved meeting him. Regarding location: we hired a car in Cambridge, and for that reason, Silverwood Lodge was a perfect place for us. We were able to drop the car at the car park and take the park-and-ride into Cambridge and enjoy the town on our own schedule. If you don't have a car, though, I'm not sure how convenient the location is because it is (way) too far to walk into Cambridge. Even the walk to the park-and-ride is a bit far from this place, but more importantly, you'd be walking on a very busy road with no pedestrian paths. Read more

Regarding the coffee, which someone made a comment on before, they have actually bought a Bodum and offer really good coffee. So, don't let that scare you off. Breakfast in general is real good. The room (family room) was very warm (far from always the case in the UK) with a huge and nice bathroom. Can be tricky to find by GPS if you just punch in […] the address, better look at the map, it's just off the A10 (Ely Road), i.e. basically on the A10. If you plan to arrive a bit late, call ahead.

Extremely comfortable stay in clean, updated room. Stayed four nights, and would return without a doubt. Owner was very pleasant and engaging. Breakfast was delicious and ample.

I was VERY IMPRESSED with my recent stay at Silverwood Lodge. My room was very comfortable and clean. The staff were extremely efficient (especially Paul and Marc) and very friendly. My sat-nav mis-led us, but I managed to phone the Lodge and get directions. It is very easy to find and is at a very convenient and safe location. I arrived very late at […] night, but wanted to pop out for dinner. Being unfamiliar with Cambridge Marc recommended a good restaurant nearby and was very helpful with regards to directions and cuisine options available. Breakfast was served in a timely manner and carried a large variety of options to cater all choices. The food was delicious and the staff went out of their way to ensure that my stay was as comfortable as possible. Every-one served us with a smile, it really enhanced the enjoyment of out trip and made it all the more memorable! I would certainly recommend this accommodation to all my friends and family, and will definitely stay at Silverwood Lodge again when I next visit Cambridge. It was a fantastic deal for the amount that I paid. Read more

Greeted and quickly handed a map of Cambridge city centre with pubs marked and the church where the wedding we were attending was being held marked as well. Key straight from car park to bedroom made life very easy coming back later on. Breakfast was terrific and the eggs appeared fresh from the chickens wandering freely around the garden! Would definitely […] look here first if staying in the area again. Read more

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

We enjoyed our overnight stay very much... and the breakfast even more, especially the freshly laid eggs. The lodge is about 5 miles out of Cambridge, which may not suit some, but was perfect for us as we had our bikes with us and cycled into Cambridge alongside the riverside towpath - the only way to appreciate Cambridge is by bike (or punt!). Good […] selection of pubs and restaurants nearby. Read more

Great to have a well equipped kitchen I could use.

Genuine Expedia guest review

Very friendly owner and fellow guests. Great, healthy breakfast with very fresh eggs. The B&B is hard to find but is actually on the right (from Ely) or left from Cambridge. The entrance is not on the A10 but on the side road opposite the turning for Waterbeach and the Bollywood Balti. Will stay again!

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

The guest house is a little difficult to see if you are coming from Ely but is visible from the Cambridge direction (we drove past it the first time from Ely in the dark). Service was friendly and efficient and the room was clean and comfortable. It is on a main road so there was some traffic noise. We were occasionally disturbed by noise coming from […] movement in the room above ours. All in all a nice place to stay and very convenient for Cambridge (less than 5 mins to Milton park and ride). Breakfast was good with lots of choice of cereals or cooked breakfast. Read more

The owner and his son were very hospitable and accommodating, in particular, by providing an excellent full English breakfast in pleasant surroundings.

I had an enjoyable stay at Silverwood Lodge, the room was comfortable and clean. I was made to feel very welcome and the breakfast was excellent, tasty, generous and not greasy. I would have no hesitation in recommending this guest house and I hope to return in the future. I particularly liked to see the hens wandering around the lawn and there is ample […] parking space.

Pleasant guest house a few miles from the centre of Cambridge. Facilities were very adequate though not luxurious. We were made to feel welcome, though the guest house is at the expensive end of the scale for the services received.

Genuine Expedia guest review

Although the room was on the small side it was very clean and comfortable. The breakfast was excellent and staff were extremely helpful and friendly. We would certainly use the guest house again.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

I was greeted by the owner/ manager who helped with my bags. He was very courteous and friendly. Great to see fee range chickens in the garden. Room was comfortable and big enough (twin) with good size shower in the bathroom. Sheets and bedding clean and fresh. The only things I would change are: it would have been great to have fresh fruit salad available […] for breakfast and - we stayed two nights but no one came to make up/ clean the room after the first night - so no clean cups or tea supplies. Otherwise, as long as traffic noise from A10 is not and issue for you - this is a comfortable and welcoming place to stay Read more

It´s a very nice place. Very clean and comfortable. Free parking and close to Cambridge. Good breakfast and free Wi-Fi. It´s just a little bit noisy as it is close to a main road but I would definately recommend it.

Genuine Expedia guest review

A very nice place to stay. Close to the Cambridge park & ride, and close to a pub that does delicious food (as recommended by the proprietor!). A very homely place, spacious room. We had a family room for the 3 of us and it fit us perfectly. Unlike most places, the free wifi was available, good, and yes, free! Would definitely stay here again!

Clean, comfortable, well kept, friendly and helpful owners, great breakfast, plenty of parking, free WiFi & good value. What else can I say!!

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

A good, comfortable B & B which offered value for money. Very convenient for Cambridge and Ely but in a country location and so it provides quiet and peaceful surroundings. Very welcoming and friendly hosts who made us feel at home. One thing which would have improved our stay was a chair in bedroom to sit on while watching TV.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

Excellent - will certainly use again.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

Very friendly and helpful staff, great breakfast and a really clean comfortable room.

Genuine Expedia guest review

Our room was clean (except the jug was disgusting, we have been using and drinking 'hard water' and never do we use a jug that looks like that). Bed was comfy but pillows need replacing. We had a room facing the road which was really noisy (needed earplugs to sleep) and it was a bit stuffy. Opening window to let in some air only made traffic noise worse. […] Breaky was good. The owners/managers are not onsite like most B&Bs so it's a little inconvenient. You do have the option of calling them if any problems arise but they don't have a phone you can use to do that. Some of us overseas travellers don't have mobiles with us, plus we shouldn't have to use our phone! Overall a nice place to stay but wouldn't go there for a relaxing retreat, it's more for a night or two stop-over. Read more

VERY WELCOMING & DEFINITELY WOULD RETURN IF WE GO TO CAMBRIDGE

Genuine Expedia guest review

Silverwood Lodge is a great place to stay if you need to be in Cambridge quickly, like we did. It's very clean and the bed was very comfortable so that's a definite tick. For a B&B, the shower and bathroom were superb (4/5 Star hotel like). The proprietors don't live on site, but I preferred that, and the breakfast was delicious. The only thing that […] may let it down is its proximity to the road: the double glazing and thin curtains do nothing to make you feel removed from it, but you're always going to get that so close to a city. All in all, it's a great place for a short stay. Read more

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

Well located with only around a two mile drive to the park and ride service into Cambridge which alleviated the necessity of locating and paying for expensive parking. Hosts were very helpful with information and suggestions. Plenty of off-street parking and a couple of restaurants and pubs are within a quick drive or easy walk. The fresh eggs from […] their hens added an eggstra element to the bountiful breakfast provided!!! Read more

Guest House was clean and laid back. No fuss owners. Indian Curry House across the road was great value and good food. Location is fine but not close to any town amenities other than the curry house and Cambridge Park and Ride. Breakfast great and owner loves his 'steamed eggs'.

Genuine Expedia guest review

Was just in Cambridge for the weekend and this was perfect for a short stay. It's located a 15min drive from the city centre but theres a park and ride just down the road which is very convenient & great for avoiding the hassle & cost of parking in town. The B&B is well kept and the owner is really friendly - even offered to drop us into town in the […] evening. The room was spacious with nice decor and a big ensuite with views over the grassy backyard & chicken coup. Breakfast in the morning was excellent - cereals with yoghurt to start followed by full cooked breakfast with fresh eggs & good coffee. The white horse inn a 15min walk away in the village does awesome nachos. Free wifi. Only complaint is that a lot of the tv channels wouldn't work. Would definitely stay here again. Read more

We were visiting Cambridge because our son had a college interview. We needed a place to stay at fairly short notice and I do not think I could have chosen abetter place to stay if I had consulted all the hotels, b/bs etc. in the city. The location was perfect for the Park & Ride, it is easy to find, the room was spacious, well equipped and in good […] order, the breakfast was just the right size and beautifully cooked and Paul, the manager was extremely helpful. I suppose the best compliment I can give the Silverwood Lodge is that if we visit Cambridge again this is where we will stay. Read more

This Lodge was in a perfect location for what I wanted, I was not travelling into Cambridge as part of my trip, but I did, it is an easy drive into the city, although the Park and ride was recommended by the owner - Paul. Paul was very friendly and helpful, offering advise on what and where I could visit. There is a buffet style breakfast,so you can […] help yourself and Paul and his staff will cook a breakfast to order, The Lodge although very near to a main road, was quiet. There is in room tea/coffee. If I am ever in the area again, I would definitely stay here. THANKS TO PAUL AND STAFF FOR A GREAT STAY. Read more

stayed here for 2 nights while visiting this very interesting city. Silverwood in good location, while out a bit from the city excellent access to local park and ride which takes the hassle out of finding parking in the city itself. Rooms very clean, good breakfast, friendly and helpful owner. Some traffic noise from main road outside but not a problem […] later on in night depends what sort of a sleeper you are. Would stay here again. Read more

This is not exactly a hotel, but more of a motel. It is set quietly apart but fairly close to Cambridge. I found it very suitable as it has ample parking which was a priority for me. The room was spacious and very clean. We had an excellent breakfast and the owners/staff were extremely pleasant and helpful.

Paul made us very welcome.The lodge is very convenient for the "Park and Ride" for Cambridge, which is free if you have a bus pass! We stayed in one of the 3 "garden rooms" which was very comfortable, but because it is entered directly from outside could be inconvenient in bad weather, for getting to the breakfast room. The breakfast was good traditional […] English fayre. However the breakfast room cannot seat all guests at the same time if the lodge is full, but there is a pleasant waiting area. Would definitely stay there again when visiting the area. Read more

The guest house is very noisy. It is too close to the highway and the plumbing makes loud noises every time somebody uses the water. I was mostly disappointed by this guest house poor location. It may be only 7 miles away from Cambridge, but the bus service is impractical. Therefore, I don't recommend booking there if you don't have a car. This hotel […] is not a good deal if you add the price of the taxis you'll need to take. Read more

Friendly, helpful proprietor, plenty of and well cooked breakfast. Nice, very clean room with lovely shower, easy parking. Just off a main road so could be noisy if the window is open and you're on the road side. With the window closed I don't think it would be a problem. Shortish walk to a decent pub. As a vegetarian and wholefood person would have […] liked to see a good muesli as one of the cereal choices and jams and marmalades of much greater quality, but this is a minor critique. Read more

Das Hotel und die Betreung waren hervorragend. Das englische Frühstück frisch zubereitet ließ keine Wünsche offen. Der Besitzer des Hauses ist sehr um seine Gäste bemüht.

De eigenaar kwam wat nors over, we voelden ons niet erg welkom in tegenstelling tot alle andere b&b en hotels.Op de fiets is het moeilijk bereikbaar omdat het aan een erg drukke weg lig.

Vi havde valgt hotellet til ophold for et par dage i Cambridge. Vi blev straks mødt med stor venlighed af værten, hvilket ikke var et salgstrick.
