“Madingley Hall, part of Cambridge University, impresses with its stunning grounds; however, the rooms are basic, yet comfortable enough for a night's rest after exploring. The readily accessible Madingley park and ride simplifies trips into Cambridge, and the breakfast is quite good. In my opinion, it's a worthwhile stay if you appreciate historic settings.”
