Close to beach front. Delightful property. Great location. Set in a 17th century manor house, the Orton Hall Hotel & Spa is nestled in 20 acres of mature parkland in the conservation village of Orton Longueville. Both Peterborough and the A1 are 2 and half miles from the property. Once home of the Marquesses of Huntly, the award-winning Orton Hall Hotel boasts 70 elegant rooms, some with romantic 4-poster beds. Each room has an en suite bathroom, a flat-screen TV with satellite channels, and tea/coffee making facilities. There is a choice of dining in either the elegant award-winning oak panelled Huntly Restaurant, with its warm and intimate atmosphere and a selection of wines to suit most palates, or The Ramblewood Inn, a traditional country pub converted from the old stable block. The Ramblewood Inn offers a wide selection of real ales and hearty food in either the bar or conservatory. Peterborough has many local attractions including the museum, a magnificent cathedral, Nene Valley Railway and Burghley House.

I think this is the most ROMANTIC small hotel in Cambridgeshire.
The Lord Byron Inn is a charming pub that dates back to the 17th century. It has a restaurant, free Wi-Fi, and offers guest accommodation just over 2 miles south of Cambridge city centre. The main pub has a large garden and a children’s play area. The en suite rooms are in a separate annexe, designed to fit the style of the original building.
