"We stayed at Fern Cottage during the October half term."
The cottage itself is just lovely, everything is so well thought out, and extremely well equipped. The owner, Jo left a lovely welcome pack for us and checked in with us by text the next day to make sure we had settled.
We were a family of 5 staying and there was plenty of room for us all , both at the dining table and snuggled in front of the log burner. The cottage was spotless.
Elsworth village is beautiful, lots of different walks for the dogs and the pubs (Poacher and George & Dragon ) are both within walking distance. Lovely friendly well stocked village shop.
I would thoroughly recommend Fern Cottage both for the location and the cottage itself.
Thank you Jo, you do an excellent job.

"Fern cottage is a very well presented holiday home in a quiet and beautiful village with lots of safe off road dog walking for our 2 Vizslas."
It was immaculately clean, comprehensively stocked with everything you could need and also a kind welcome pack from the owners.
We were visiting family and it made a perfect base to explore local countryside and Cambridge, only 20 minutes drive away.
Five stars for everything!

The owner is very friendly and helpful. The garden is also lovely and safe and secure for dogs.
We can highly recommend it. We also highly recommend The Poacher Inn which is just an easy stroll from the cottage.Frank’s farm deli is worth a visit as is the cafe there.

"This was our second stay at Fern Cottage."
Once again, very enjoyable. The cottage was spotlessly clean, cosy, and well-equipped - with plenty of space (inside and out) for everyone. We love the quiet location with lots of nice walks on the doorstep, shops and restaurants close by in St.Ives and Cambourne, and good pubs in Elsworth itself and in nearby villages. All in all, a great week. Thanks, Jo and family!

We were in Cambridge for our daughter’s graduation and arrived to a generous welcome gift of goodies and a congratulations card for our daughter. Such a thoughtful gesture. The cottage was perfect - stocked with everything we could possibly need. Everything clean and comfortable and an abundance of fresh towels. We were delighted to discover a truly dog-safe garden which meant we could really relax. There is nothing I can fault. Only a shame we couldn’t stay longer!

"Excellent in every way."
Cannot fault the accommodation. Owners left full contact info re local Dr, Vet Chemist etc
and 2 dog friendly pubs both of which served food..(Best to book tho if you are taking the dog because of specific seating areas ). Having noticed a small leak on calling the owners they came straight round to deal with it, just one of those things which didn't inconvenience us. Would love to stay there again. Best cottage we've stayed in.

"Cannot praise fern cottage enough!"
We stayed here for a long weekend when going to a wedding locally, and it was a fantastic base. Really comfortable, spotlessly clean, and a really well designed space (nice sized rooms, good storage, and a nice open downstairs space, but with privacy if you wanted it). The owners were really welcoming, and even had provided age appropriate toys for the kids (a baby and a toddler), and an allergy appropriate welcome basket. Normally, travelling with 2 small kids is about 10 times more tiring than staying at home, but we actually managed to relax a bit here, which is high praise indeed!
