A lovely warm venue for a break with delicious breakfasts
The communication before and during our stay was excellent. The accommodation was great and warm. The choice of breakfasts were excellent and plentiful - easy to prepare ourselves.
Also our two dogs were with us which was a bonus.

Lovely, peaceful place to stay
I stayed at the Blue Cow for two nights as needed to be close to Cambridge for a couple of days. It is a lovely property, very comfortable and in a very good location being just off the "old" A14 (and in a pretty village). It is clean and well equipped and it is always great when a place allows you to bring your dog (or in my case, dogs) with you.

Love The Blue Cow 💗
This is an amazing little cottage in a lovely village, with exceptional hosts.
Can’t fault it, as it has everything and has become a home from home, as we regularly stay here.
Would highly recommend it.

Ideal, peaceful accommodation
We stayed here for 5 days and the Blue Cow was ideal for the two of us plus my Cocker Spaniel. The accommodation is divided into a bedroom, lounge, kitchen and bathroom with a patio area and off street parking. We had everything that we needed and it was an ideal base to visit Cambridge, Ely, St Ives and the surrounding area. The owner is delightful and made sure that everything was fine during our stay.

A relaxing break.
We liked the fact that the bedroom, living room, kitchen and bathroom were all individual seperate rooms. The breakfast food was excellent quality and plentiful.
The decor and furniture in the cosy cottage is a blend of the traditional and contemporary, providing a comfortable and relaxing environment for guests in which to unwind and enjoy a luxurious break away in Cambridgeshire. Your hosts, Mila and Bill are at hand to make your stay at The Blue Cow as enjoyable as possible and nothing is too much trouble - so just ask!
