About this property

The Whitehouse Cottage

A gorgeous Leisure 110 Range cooker is provided in the cottage. There is a pantry to provide additional storage. Additionally, we have a sizable utility room that is equipped with a washing machine, dryer, dishwasher, and a Samsung American fridge freezer with water and ice. A downstairs shower room is located right off the utility room.

There is a large pine table and chairs as well as a corner sofa in the living/dining room.

The Whitehouse Cottage contains four bedrooms, two of which have en suite bathrooms, together with a family bathroom and a downstairs shower room. The house has been tastefully updated with all the conveniences of the home. All of the bedrooms include wooden beds with nightstands, chests of drawers, and wardrobes. There are four bedrooms at the Whitehouse Cottage. There is a King en-suite room on the ground floor. A King room with an ensuite is located upstairs. a King-sized room as well as a double room which both share a family shower room located upstairs.

There are two living rooms, one of which has a corner sofa and a pine table and seats eight people. The second one has French doors leading to the garden and is at the back of the home. A flat-screen TV and a leather sofa with three and two seats are also available. There is a large courtyard outside where two to three vehicles can be parked.

We welcome visitors to use the gas BBQ in our gorgeous garden, which also has plenty of seating. However, we do ask that it be properly cleaned after each use. (Please be aware that this garden is shared with the owners who reside next door to the property. However, when the property Is booked out the owners do not use the Garden for guests privacy)

The Property is located on the B1043 so does get some road noise.

Please note, Outside the Property, there is a Ring Camera device overlooking the carpark.

Lovely weekend in friendly cottage
Perfect property for eight ladies and a baby, lots of communal space and nice garden area. Very accomodating, informative hosts who could not do enough for us - took them up on some of their reccomendations and also had treatments at the adjoining beauty salon - massage was particularly good. Convenient to Cambridge, around 20 minutes and £20-30 in a cab.

Great Accommodation
My family and I planned a multi-generational party at this property for my mother’s 90th birthday. Some of the family is UK based, but many of us were coming from the States. Fleur and Paul massively went the extra mile to be sure that every detail was perfect. The whole gathering was a great success, and we were so pleased to have chosen this venue. The house itself is very comfortable and all of us found that it had absolutely everything we needed. I would especially point out that the multiple en-suite rooms make for a great family gathering, hanging out together but without “too much” togetherness! It is truly a splendid property, and very conveniently located for many activities in Cambridgeshire and Bedfordshire. Finally, I would really give absolutely top marks to the Batemans. They are incredibly welcoming hosts who seem genuinely committed to doing everything possible to assure a wonderful stay at Whitehouse Cottage. I can’t speak highly enough of their hospitality. Incredible hosts. Overall, if you need an accommodation that will suit a good-sized group, you won’t find anything better in this corner of England. I travel in the UK frequently, and have rented many holiday homes. I’ve never had as nice a welcome or a nicer home-from-home. I recommend this property enthusiastically and without hesitation. We had a marvelous visit (thanks to our wonderful hosts), and I’m sure any visitor to Whitehouse Cottage will feel very comfortable indeed. Rated 5-stars, A++.

Comfortable accommodation for a large family
We used this as a base for a visit to Duxford. It easily accommodated two families of four plus a grandparent. Fleur was very kind and helpful, which was appreciated by our tired group when we arrived. The village pub too was perfect for us - a kind landlady and good food.

Ideal for a family break
There are a good number of bedrooms, nearly all en suite, which is why we chose this property. Bedrooms were a good size and the layout of the bedrooms really suited our party of 6 adults, 3 children and a baby! The kitchen is very small and we were falling over each other a little bit. However we didn’t cook very much when we were there! Fleur left cereal, bread, butter and other necessities, including a bottle of wine, which was lovely and so helpful to get us settled.

Beautiful area. Lovely bedrooms.
The owners were very friendly and we had a fantastic time. A group of us have been going away for a long weekend for over 30 years. This property was not as good as many we have stayed in. The bedrooms were comfortable and well kitted out. The lounge was fine but was a bit of a squash to seat 8 of us. The biggest drawback was that the kitchen was far too small. We were tripping over each other and we did not have enough room to store our food. When we arrived the first thing we noticed was that there were weeds around the outside area and we were looking at a factory. We would not wish to return here.

Would come back any time
Wir waren zu siebt eine Woche lang im Whitehorse Cottage und haben die Geräumigkeit sehr genossen. Es war sehr praktisch, dass so viele Badezimmer zur Verfügung standen, so gab es nie Wartezeiten! Die Vermieterin war sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit und gab uns gute Tipps für unseren London-Trip, der ganz praktisch nur wenige Minuten vom Haus entfernt am Bahnhof in St Neots begann. Geschirr und Besteck waren ausreichend vorhanden, lediglich eine gute Pfanne fürs Full English Breakfast fehlte.

Great getaway
Second time at the whitehouse cottage - both times with a group of family members. Perfect for a short break, especially the dining and lounge areas. Bedrooms are well set-up with good bathrooms. Thanks for letting us stay!

Lovely stay at the White House Cottage
We had a lovely weekend stay at the White House Cottage. The property was clean and well maintained with plenty of room for five adults and two children (having booked the additional bedroom). Fleur was so welcoming and provided excellent customer service when we did have a small issue during our stay. I would recommend the property for family groups looking for somewhere to stay with a comfortable, cottage feel.

Lovely place that suited our group wonderful with huge bedrooms and many bathrooms.
We stayed for 3 nights and were welcomed with a tour around the property by the very lovely bubbly owner. Very adequate for a larger group with large bedrooms and many bathrooms and good parking. Particularly liked the 'welcome pack' (milk, tea, coffee etc) to enable you to have a cuppa to regroup after journeys and plan the stay. The kitchen was a little small, but manageable but would not recommend a three course meal being cooked, but there is the offer of a chef. We went for walks and had meals out and just had a lovely time connecting with friends from around the country.Yes I would recommend this property. It was cosy, warm and comfortable. We never received the address through the Home Away site needing to download their app and register, which we were not prepared to do for a postcode. However contact with the owner was very quick and easy and no problem at all. Thanks again to the owner for letting us stay.
