Waterfront vacation rentals in Cambridge

Ben and the Team were super responsive, proactive, and detailed/clear with all of their instructions, and also quick to reply to my queries. The apartment is modern, stylish, squeaky clean, and in an idyllic setting (next to a pond with boats, swans, willow trees, restaurants, and the occasional cow!). It’s easily a 10-minute walk to most places in central Cambridge, and the free, private parking is a game changer if you have a car. Would highly recommend and/or stay here again!

I had a fantastic stay at Fleur’s flat in St. Neots. It is in the perfect location. It is in the heart of the town, less than a minute's walk to Market Square. You can walk to everything… restaurants, shops, cafes, park, marina, train station, etc.. The apartment was as described, and the photos were accurate. It was very clean. Clean linens and towels were provided. The bedrooms are a good size and comfortable. The common space might be tight if you have 4 people, but not an issue. Check-in and check-out were very simple. I was given good instructions and the keys were left in a convenient lockbox. Communication with Fleur was very efficient. This was only my fourth experience using Airbnb, but I would say by far my best experience. I highly recommend this space if you want to be in St. Neots. I hope to stay here again someday. Thank you.

Thank you Jodie and Lee for a great stay. The instructions on how to check in were perfect and the location was great for us. The apartment with 2 bed and 2 bath is fantastic when travelling with others and the lounge and kitchen was ample space. The mezzanine level was a bonus! We would choose to stay again. Thank you!

Very nicely decorated apartment, well located right next to the park and the river, and 10 minutes from the historic center. Very nice and responsive host. Small downsides: the apartment (number 7) is located near a fairly busy road especially in the morning (and that can be heard). Blinds also let in a lot of light. Otherwise it was perfect, it's the kind of place that makes you want to come back! A little extra: you will benefit from discounts at the pub opposite on the Cam(super pub), and from the company that makes cruises (opposite also, to be done).

We loved this spacious flat by the river side. It was very handy for everthing we wanted to do in Peterborough. Had the weather been warmer, we would have used the outside patio/balcony. Would defintely want to say here again if we were in Peterborough.

Exactly as described and shown in the photos, super clean and new, really nice flat, excellent location by the pond and opposite the Granta. Easy communication with host.

This is a lovely place to stay, the hosts were friendly and welcoming and the rental unit is perfect for a weekend stay. It has everything you could need and is modern and cosy. I would definitely recommend this to anyone looking in the area.

I booked this for my daughter who loved her short stay here. Jodie was very helpful with the booking, the stay and communication was spot on. The apartment was clean, modern and welcoming with everything needed for a comfortable stay. 100% recommended.

A lovely house and a very comfortable stay

We only stayed for two days but we will definitely be back. The accommodation was immaculately clean and had beautiful views down the river. Dave and Sue were great hosts. They were generally really helpful and also on hand to welcome us in. Dave set up a boat with a motor so we could take a little trip down the river. The 1pm check-in was a real bonus. Loved our stay!

We had a great weekend David was easy to contact and provided useful information and recommendations via text and in the lodge. The lodge had plenty of outside seating and use of the kayaks was a great way to explore the marina. The lodge was a good size with all we needed for a weekend stay. Plenty of lovely places to visit nearby and couple of good pubs only a mile away.

I hosted a training for our organisation at Cowlinge Hall and we all had a wonderful time. From arrival, Emily had gone above an beyond leaving us two bottles of Prosecco and homemade brownies (which were SO good!). The luxurious space made for really nice down time between our sessions of work! Our caterers really enjoyed using the kitchen - which had everything they needed to provide us wonderful meals during the week (the caterers came with us, and weren't connected to the Hall). Our team enjoyed walks in the afternoon, around the property or on the quieter roads around the area - the countryside adding much to our sense of tranquility and atmosphere. We made good use of the fire place and ample firewood supplied. We definitely want to return for future events as it was a joyful location to live and work for a week! Emily was very responsive through out our stay if we had a question about something. Thanks so very much for everything - we'll be back!

WHAT A PLACE! Stunning location and being on the water was amazing. The property was very well equipped and deceptively big. Having a bbq by the water made it really feel like we were on holiday (despite the typical British weather). We know Isleham well and it’s a great location to access lots of things going on and the village pubs have amazing food. We’ll definitely be repeat customers of this place and look forward to doing some more fishing, paddle boarding/kayaking and bbq’s when we come back 🥳

Stayed for a few nights we also we were working in the area nice house

We enjoyed our stay over Christmas. a lovely large, spacious house located conveniently for our family get together. Very peaceful area. House had all the amenities you'd need for a family stay.

We were five cousins who meet up annually. This was the first time we had used an Airbnb and West Farm Cottage was an excellent choice. The house and gardens were stunning. It was very clean throughout with comfy and clean beds. The open plan kitchen had plenty of crockery and glasses. We thoroughly enjoyed relaxing in the beautiful garden. Booking and check-in was quick and efficient. The two downstairs ensuite bedrooms are ideal for anyone with mobility issues. We did wonder if a grab rail perhaps in one of the showers might be a good idea? We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and wouldn't hesitate to recommend to family and friends. Many thanks David.

Beautiful location, lovely host, clear and helpful communications, a 5 Star experience all round. Highly recommended.

Lovely flat, relaxing location and quiet on the riverside of the flat, slightly noisy on the street side until the early hours due to the town centre location, not an issue if cool enough to have the windows closed however. Location for town centre really good, restaurants, cafe Nero, Costa M&S and Waitrose all a 2 minute walk away, including bus stop for trips into Cambridge/Bedford. The Flat itself was a complete home from home had everything i needed during my stay. Communication from Fleur was really good. Would absolutely book again when visiting friends in the area.

Excellent location, perfect for a few days and probably longer, very helpful and responsive host. Good location for walking to bars, restaurants, local stores and also enjoyable walking, running options along the river and nearby parks . Perfectly good ammeities and fittings in the unit. Will definitely consider this again on future visits.

My daughters had a lovely stay at Fleur’s property. It was a great base for them over the Christmas holidays. Having a Christmas Tree made it feel like a home and they will happily return. Thank you so much for your kindness and Happy New Year!

This is a beautifully presented apartment. Spotlessly clean, very well equipped and with lovely riverside views. It’s about a 20 min walk to the pub in the village and about 25 mins into St. Neots, where there’s a wide choice of shops and restaurants. If you’re feeling lazy though there’s a very good Chinese restaurant that delivers! Overall I would find it very hard to fault anything about the place. If I had to try, there’s one (very tiny) difficulty if you happen to have a larger-than-average car, in that the parking spaces are relatively tight to get into, and require some very careful reversing. To be fair though, my car is just over 1.9m wide (according to Google) which is a fair bit bigger than average, and it did fit, but I was slightly nervous the first time! In summary though, it really felt like a beautiful home-from-home and I’d happily stay there again whenever I get the chance.
