- Carlos (10/5): - The wife and I loved everything at the Thorpe Guesthouse in Hemingford. Location is superb, in the beautiful rural Cambridgeshire, the hosts were friendly and the room was simply exceptional: huge, comfortable bed, spotless, clean bathroom, and the place is so quiet, what a lovely place and a lovely weekend getaway!

- Sian (10/5): Perfect, relaxing, quiet and comfortable - Staff were lovely and welcoming. The property was calm, relaxed, I managed to sleep well as comfortable and cool. I’ve tried several places and this is by far the first place I could relax and will be staying there again.
- Steven (10/5): Very pleasant and would stay again - Very clean and comfortable room Bed cover was quite heavy. Would have preferred a duvet
- Elizabeth (6/5): The room had what we needed and as we only slept there, it was ok. - The beds were comfortable. I feel the cleanliness of the toilet could have been better aswell as the surfaces in the bedroom.
The bedroom was set up as a double (we weren't asked if we wanted a twin). As our bedroom was off the main hall, it was very noisy at times.
- Peter (10/5): -

- Eason (9/5): A Very Nice Host - The accommodations..the host..the location..felt comfortable and at ease A bit cramped but manageable
- Gary (9/5): Great place to stay with good conversation and breakfast. Why would you stay anywhere else! - The location was within walking distance of The Cock pub and restaurant for dinner. The breakfast that Stewart cooked, pre-ordered the night before, was excellent and set me up nicely for the day. Would have welcomed a tour of where switches were for the extract, towel rail, etc. but I worked it out. Would also have liked a light above the mirror in the bathroom for shaving!
- Tim (10/5): A great find. Will visit again. - Very well presented. Comfortable bed. Excellent self catering facilities. Light and airy with garden access. Great breakfast. Pleasant hosts. Good communication. Would not hesitate to stay again.
- Sandra (10/5): Great, spacious area, good value and really welcoming hosts - Lovely welcome. Great, private space with cooking facilities, all the crockery etc you would need for a short stay. Lovely large bedroom with a big Kingsize bed which was very comfortable. Unexpected offer of breakfast at a very reasonable rate. Short walk to a very good pub and only a couple of miles to St Ives, Cambs, where we decided to meander around on our second day. Nothing ..... all great.
- Dirk (9/5): - Das Frühstück war sehr gut und umfangreich. Der Frühstücksraum war sehr schön und die Gastgeber sehr freundlich. Ganz toll ist der Pub im Ort. Also Abends auf jeden Fall einplanen. Sehr gutes Essen und insbesondere der Aussenbereich sehr gemütlich.

Highly recommended it, great beds, breakfast and hosts. Noting
- Anne (10/5): - The house is beautiful, quiet, and comfortable. The hosts are lovely, and they went out of their way to help with transportation and convenience without being at all intrusive. He went out of his way to give us a ride when we were walking to the local pub for dinner in a heavy rain, which was much appreciated. They found the perfect niche between letting us find our way on our own and making life a little easier.
