Lovely setting, room was clean and tidy, comfy bed, nice warm shower. We took two camping chairs with us as nowhere to sit which we knew before we arrived. Great location for exploring the area.

I booked an accommodation 13/11.booking paid. A couple of minutes I received an email confirming my booking. An email for instructions was emailed as well. The following day. I was sent an email that my booking was cancelled due to the owner cannot accommodate us on the dates that we picked. Not only that. I have to wait a week to have my money refunded. Now I have to wait for my money to become available before I can book another accommodation. I'm very disappointed!

Hello Maria,
I’m truly sorry to hear that your booking was cancelled, and I completely understand your disappointment.
As listing agents, the availability shown to us comes directly from the property managers we work with. At the time of your booking, these dates would have appeared as bookable based on the property managers calendar dates.
Unfortunately, we have no control over these dates or the cancellation of bookings. I would suggest contacting the property manager directly, as they may be able to provide more information about why this booking could not go ahead.
In the meantime, please feel free to contact our friendly customer service team on 0203 637 0812. We'd happily help you find an alternative accommodation!
All the best,
Katie

Hello Mark,
I’m truly sorry to hear that your booking was cancelled. I can imagine how disappointing this must have been.
To explain further, we act primarily as listing agents, which means the availability of our listing are managed by the agents we work alongside.
At the time of booking, these dates were available, which is why you were able to proceed with your reservation. However, on rare occasions, property owners may cancel a booking, and unfortunately, this is something beyond our control.
If you contact the agent managing your booking, they’ll be able to provide more information about the reason for the cancellation.
In the meantime, if you reach out to our team on 0203 637 0812, we’d be happy to help you find a suitable alternative accommodation.
All the best,
Katie
Using map I found it slightly awkward
Found the map slightly awkward when moving around.
(Maybe an age thing!)
Once booked everything was very straightforward and information sent was clear and helpful.

Booked for a weekend in December
Booked for a weekend in December , in error I booked 2026 rather than this year
Contacted immediately the hosts who kindly offered me a refund , yet 2 weeks later ignoring messages and emails from booking.com
I’m giving them 15 months notice , so sadly I will not be able to take my grandkids to the Cambridge Xmas market and will have to wait 15 months ! Bitter taste left by this host

Hello Suzanne,
Thank you for getting in touch!
I have checked our system but have been unable to locate your booking.
I note that you mention in your review “Booking.com.” Please note that they are a separate company from us, so I would recommend reaching out to them directly to resolve this matter.
All the best,
Katie
