Review 's Fairways Guest House

Tony and Dudley Nixon

My wife Dudley (a coeliac) and I stayed with you in May, when we spoke to you as we were leaving we promised that we would send you something for your site - here it is at last...


One of the most difficult things as a coeliac is eating out, and finding somewhere to stay that not only understands the diet but realises that gluten turns up in all sorts of unexpected things.  What a joy to find a Guest House run by a coeliac where you just don't have to worry about these things - and whether they have a separate toaster for the GF bread!  We were only staying for one night after a family birthday party in Cambridge and so we were perhaps not at our best in the morning(!) but it was a wonderful breakfast made all the better by knowing that it had been cooked with care by another coeliac.


Best wishes

Hi,

i stayed in your guest house in Cambridge a few weeks ago and i am just sending you this email about your breakfast.
I had egg on toast on the last day for breakfast and was pleasantly surprised by your presentation- a few photos are 
attached for your perusal
i have shown the photos to a few friends and everyone wants a bite. Now i will say that its a unique selling point to put on your website-
invite everyone who stays to have a taste of your "egg on toast"-your house special
thanks for the stay and i am sure to return the next time i am in cambridge
best regards

Finding a good, reasonably priced, place to stay in Cambridge is always difficult, especially if you need parking. We also needed to be within walking distance of the Cambridge Leisure Center and Fairways seemed to meet all our needs. We booked a double, en-suite room and hoped for the best. I have to say that all my expectations were exceeded by far - It's an old building but all the rooms are clean and very comfortable (we were so impressed that we asked to see some of the other rooms). Our room was very nicely presented - two sets of good quality bath and hand towels, spotless bed linen, shampoo & soaps, flat screen TV, tea/coffee making facilities, even a little packet of biscuits! After a good night sleep, we went down to breakfast. After seeing the picture of the offering on the web site, I was wondering what we would be in for. As it happened, we were served the very best scrambled eggs that we've ever had - you have to try it. By the way, if you have a food allergy problem, that's no problem - They cater for all conditions. To sum up, the owners are friendly and helpful. The guest house is clean and comfortable and you can park the car and walk or bus into the city center. Unless you want ultra modern (and can afford to pay for it) don't hesitate; it's perfect. Oh! by the way, you get free Wifi broadband too.

Good Value and great breakfast


Fairways Guest House: Reviews
First impressions were not great, but once we were in our room we were pleasantly surprised. We stayed in a family room, it was tight, but fine. The room was clean and cleaned nicely daily even though it was tight. The bathroom was small and just ok, but really it had all we needed - just nothing fancy. Breakfast was great - with a choice of items!! The Inn Keepers were very friendly. The only drawback was that we had a room near the front entrance and the front door and the street out front were noisy at all hours. We slept well though. Free parking as well!!

Great Breakfast - Fair Price


Fairways Guest House:Reviews
Mike and Tracey the owners were very welcoming and I found my room clean and tidy and more than fit for purpose. The breakfast is great and Mike is very helpful in his knowledge on food and diet. If you need to be this side of Cambridge then well worth considering over a more expensive hotel.

Sorted for coeliac - gluten free

You are made to feel very welcome. If you have either coeliac disease or a related food intolerance you can feel confident that your needs will be met. I would strongly recommend it. CoeliacSamNice B&B with free wifiFairways Guest House:Reviews
Nice B&B, the room was small and there was nearly no place to fit the baby-cot but the service was ok. The breakfast is fine and yummy.

4 star quality for 3 star prices

Fairways Guest House:Reviews
Fairways is very clean, comfortable and welcoming. Being Coeliac, I need a gluten free diet and the breakfast provided for me was generous in it's proportions and delicious in it's quality. Mike, the owner, is sympathetic to my needs and nothing is too much trouble. We have stayed there now on 4 separate occasions and will certainly return on our next visit to Cambridge. I recommend it highly.

A lovely accommodation with very good breakfast and welcoming treatment


Fairways Guest House:Reviews
We were met at the door and treated with great courtesy by Tracey. Rooms were ready and our downstairs room was very spacious and very clean. It was nice to have a large room and we liked the idea of the shower being separate from the toilet and sink. The location was great because it was just a short walk in one direction from some very good restaurants, an entertainment area (movies, etc.) and convenience store. Then in the other direction, just a short walk, a post office and small shops. We also walked to the train station, several times, which was convenient. Bus service is also available. The morning breakfast was on time and very good. This is a very good place to stay for the Duxford Museum and/or air show. All the staff was very cordial, friendly and helpful. What I liked best was the room size, on site parking, location and breakfast. There was nothing I didn't like.
