Beautiful property, spotlessly clean, nicely furnished & very well equipped. Rebecca is an excellent host. I left an earring behind & she went through the vacuum cleaner to find it to return to me, such service!! I would highly recommend this property.

A great find
When we first opened the door from the main street into the garden courtyard we had a feeling the cottage was going to be special. To find it was so well equipped was an added bonus with everything in keeping with the age of the property. We appreciated the good supply of provisions too. Highly recommended.

A cute cottage with great hosts
We stayed for just under 3 weeks and had a lovely stay. A really charming and cute little cottage, hidden away behind the main street in Kimbolton. Though the kitchen is very compact, the air fryer and induction stove meant we could make some meals, and everything else about the cottage is cozy and welcoming. The hosts are great, and Rebecca was always very swift to respond to any questions or requests. Highly recommended.

A Gem of a Place to Stay!
The Secret Cottage is the most stunning little cottage I have ever stayed in. Immaculately clean, beautifully presented and full of the most thoughtful touches. The bed is even more comfortable than mine at home and the duvet was like sleeping under a summer cloud. The decor was perfection and I will most definitely be booking again. Thank you for letting us stay in your wonderful secret hideaway!

Lovely cosy place in a gorgeous little town
Lovely cottage, perfect for the 2 of us plus our doggies. Communication before and during was fabulous and we really appreciated the early check in after a long drive. Loved the little touches too, like fresh bread, cereal, etc. Kimbolton is lovely, with lots of nice little walks on the doorstop. Highly recommended. Thank you. We will be back 😊

Cosy Cottage in Picturesque Setting
We loved staying in this delightful little country hideaway and will definitely stay again. The cottage was clean and inviting with the essentials for a warm drink and a snack on arrival. The mix of modern and historical provide a comfortable cosy stay. An open fire would turn this great cottage into perfection itself. Excellent pub The Saddle, across the street serving very good homemade meals.

Fabulous Find
This is an amazing cottage. The best Air B&B I’ve ever stayed in. Greatly exceeded expectations- loads of lovely features and extras. Extremely comfortable, huge bedroom, lots and lots of character. Set in a really interesting village with friendly neighbours. Wonderful host - the icing on the cake! Can’t wait to return to this 5-star experience.

Dreamy get away
The little cottage was the perfect getaway for us and our lovely Mochi (cat). Through a lovely path full of flowers is this beautiful cottage which exceeded our expectations and has everything you need. The lounge greeted us with a cosy atmosphere, lovely books and information about the area and most and foremost banana cake under a glass dome; the bedroom is big and spacious and the bed extremely comfortable. The whole property feels so homely and is beautifully decorated. The host kindly left us the breakfast table all set up as well as bread, butter and milk. We had the best stay and we cannot wait to return 🤗😍♥️

Wonderful place and people
This property is magnificent and is even nicer than the description. The people running it are terrific too. The house is just the right size, and very historic and inviting. We were made to feel welcome when we arrived from the first minute, having necessities waiting for us. I cannot rate this experience highly enough. The walks are a very short distance of a minute or two to get there, and the town is very historic and nice too.
