- Kevin (8/5): Very convenient stop over - Just 4 min from the A14 it was very convenient for an overnight stop. The place was very clean and the kitchen had everything we needed. The wifi was good and although we didn't use it a lot the TV worked well. The heating was only on for a short period. It was a cold night and despite a boost in the morning the bathroom was a bit bracing.

- Cheyne (10/5): Exceptional -
- Helen (10/5): A great stay very close to the A14 in Kettering - I liked the homely feel of a real house, with a separate bathroom and with a well equipped kitchen, which looked over a lovely garden. There was plenty of tea and coffee, and a pint of semi-skimmed milk in the fridge for my use. There was also a microwave, and a bar type seating and table, with two seats. The bedroom was very clean and bright, and had nice furnishings, a set of drawers and a good wardrobe. The double bed was nice and comfortable. I was the only guest on the upstairs floor, so I felt very free to come and go between my room and the bathroom and kitchen. It is very well situated, only a mile from the A14, so it was really easy to find. I ventured into town for an evening meal and eventually found an amazing Malaysian restaurant which was quiet and with really good service, and lovely food. The owner of Oakland was extremely helpful beforehand, when I was uncertain about my arrival time. He made it possible for me to access my room earlier than I had expected. He was really kind and helpful in every way. It was a really good stay, and a pleasure to meet him. Thank you so much! I don't think there was anything I didn't like! The bathroom was very well aired, but I was able to pull the window to, for using the bath/shower, so that was all okay! Thanks!
- Sue (10/5): Exceptional -
- Annah (10/5): Extremely pleasant, and would certainly stay again. - The host was gracious when we arrived, showed us around, and in fact helped us with some additional questions, we had. The was room, exceptionally clean and had the modern design of the furnishings. The bathroom and the kitchen were just as clean and tidy, Even better than some other motels which we have stayed previously in Northampton. Furthermore, we were impressed that our host had provided us with several choices of breakfast, cereals, eggs, bread, milk. The fridge was full of additional stuff, and had a bowl of fruit, including big bars of chocolates, tea, and coffee. The next morning, Sean saw us to the door and had a conversation with him for a few minutes, we were both touched with his hospitality and friendly nature. We left with spending an enjoyable experience at Kettering, and would highly recommend it, and hopefully stay again. Well, I can't say that there was anything which we didn't like.

- Liam (9/5): Perfect location, comfortable room, and delightfully winning host. I’ll be back - Sean, the host, was most helpful and welcoming. I had to arrange a very late checkin and nothing was too much trouble. The house was only a minute or two from the main road and very easy to find. I didn’t use the kitchen facilities next morning but everything was there. I don’t often visit the town but if I need to again I’ll definitely be back.
