Response from the owner Hi and thank you for taking the time to provide us with a review of Whitehouse Cottage. We are just outside St Neots on the road to Great Paxton and as there are no footpaths a car is advisable. We have a really good taxi service that is not expensive for getting into St Neots. We hope to see you again sometime in the future. Kind regards Fleur and Paul

Response from the owner Thank you for taking the time to provide us with a review of your stay at Whitehouse Cottage and Courtyard Cottage. We always welcome our guests and advise that if there are any problems whilst you stay with us to tell us straight away so we can deal with these issued quickly and efficiently. We live onsite so can act on this problems straight away. The booking you made with us was for the exclusive occupation of both cottages on a self catering basis. We advised when we showed you around the cottages prior to your booking that when we let the cottages out on a self catering basis we always provide our guests with a welcome pack which includes Bread, Croissants, Milk, Juice, Yogurts, Jam, Marmalade, Butter, Tea,Coffee, Sugar, Flowers, Cake and Wine. As you booked both cottages all these items were in both cottages. We also advised that there were cereals in the cupboards. We have had numerous clients so surprised that these treats are left for them when renting our cottages on a self catering basis. As your booking was for self catering and not bed and breakfast then these items would not have been replenished. We are sorry that some of your party did not sleep comfortably. This was never advised to us at any time through out your stay. Our mattresses are changed on a regular basis and we always have medium support mattresses. Only today one of our guests asked where we purchased our mattresses from as it was the best nights sleep she had had for years. It is always hard to achieve everybody's sleeping comfort as you are not sleeping in your own bed. Whitehouse Cottage was built back in the 1800's and is not a purpose built property like a hotel. We have a regular plan of refurbishment and re decoration of this property with the last major refurbishment 18 months ago. We always try to run our property as Home from Home and do not treat our Bed and Breakfast clients any different to our self catering clients. We have a clear identity and always go the extra mile for our clients like allowing them to book in early and book out late. Welcome packs on their arrival. Receiving their shopping and putting this away prior to their arrival. Kind regards Fleur and Paul

Response from the owner Many thanks for taking the time to give us a review. You in turn made our Christmas a highlight. When ever we look at a turkey again we will have a little chuckle to ourselves. Glad we made you stay with us special and look forward to seeing you all again in the future. Kind Regards Fleur and Paul

“A very good cottage for a family get-together.”
The location is rural, with the small town of St Neots and good shops a short drive away. Various tourist attractions and the honeypot of Cambridge are a little further. The accommodation is well kept and fine for a large family with children in tow. The kitchen, though a little small in the context of the number of bedrooms, has plenty of implements and so on, and can be used for making a large dinner for everyone. We had a great time.
