  • "Great property overall but could benefit from some minor improvements."

    The main toilet was unclean when we arrived but all the others were fine. The main bathroom also lacked any privacy - no frosted glass or blinds - with a window directly facing the neighbour. There were quite a few stains on the carpets too in the living room. Areas of the kitchen were a little dark as the bulbs had gone. It would have been useful to have a coat hook by the front door and some hooks or rails in the bathrooms and by the hot tub for towels. Some bits in the kitchen weren’t clean like the kettle, glasses and pots. Apart from these issues which weren’t huge inconveniences the house was great and served well as a family get away.

  • "Lovely house and very comfortable We needed somewhere to hang our coats ."

    ,The heating was on when we arrived which was great ,but the radiator in the lounge wasn't working, so very cold .We were expecting working open fires as mentioned in your write up but they are just decorative .Disappointed with that . Up stairs was so hot we had to open windows to cool down .The main bedroom was lovely but no hanging space .We all enjoyed our break and the house was great .Just a few things would make it perfect !!!

Resting in the town of Royston, a quaint settlement in the heart of Hertfordshire, lies this delightful, five-bedroom holiday home, 8 Newmarket Road.

Boasting spacious living spaces, off-road parking, a hot tub and superb access to nearby pubs and restaurants, this property is perfect for large families or groups of friends sharing looking for a fuss-free, self-catered escape to one of England's home counties.

Park up, unpack and get settled in your new lodgings by setting up shop in the home's fully-equipped kitchen, complete with SMEG and BOSCH appliances, American-style fridge/freezer, integrated coffee maker, and a central island where you and your loved ones can gather to prepare delicious feasts to be savoured in the dining room, or alfresco in the back garden in the warmer months.

Enjoy an evening nestled up on the large sofa, cosy up having a glass of wine or soak up the rural atmosphere in the hot tub and when sleep calls, indulge in a rejuvenating shower or bath before retreating to one of five plush, double bedrooms, each of which awaits to transport you to a night of well-earned rest.

After you've enjoyed your morning coffee sat out front or back in the outside courtyard, make your way into Royston to get better acquainted with your local area.

Explore the plethora of local restaurants, pubs, local Priory Gardens or explore Royston’s natural caves.

Stock up on essentials at the Tesco express, pick up a souvenir from the Royston Cave Shop, and settle down for a tasty meal at The Banyers House if you fancy a break from cooking one evening.

In nearby Cambridge, which is accessible by car, there is a plethora of things to explore, including punting on the River Cam, picnics in the park, local shops, cafes and a walking tour of the city including the University of Cambridge’s Fitzwilliam Museum.

A must visit are the infamous colleges such as Kings College, Trinity College and St John’s College.

In nearby Stevenage, which is accessible by car, you will find a wealth of things to see, including the Joy Ride Statue memorial park, the pristine grounds of Fairlands Valley Park, and the Stevenage Museum, for those looking to learn more about the history of the town.

Whilst you're in the region, its worth visiting Knebworth House.
