Entire Cottage in Picturesque Village

The Old Reading Rooms - A unique, spacious, comfortable, detached 2 bedroomed cottage (sleeps 5) in a wonderful village with easy access to an array of fantastic and fascinating destinations including a host of historical and cultural hot spots! Surrounded by beautiful countryside you will love to explore!

Great cafe's, pubs, restaurants, an artisan bakery, an organic veg shop, small art galleries, florist, beauty salons, hairdressers, CO-OP all within easy walking distance.

The Old Reading Rooms - A Grade II listed property dating back to the 1500s. For some time it was used by the Linton Literary Society for young men of the village to meet, read papers and play billiards (the old cue housing can be seen in the lounge). Prior to that, it was The Old Coffee House.

Lovingly renovated using breathable wool insulation, acoustic fibreboard to insulate the old lathes and plaster, acoustic secondary glazing alongside the old sliding windows to ensure warmth and full sound insulation - to ensure up to date heat retention and leaving residents feeling completed cocooned from the world outside.

Perfect Base for Cambridge Area
My wife and I really enjoyed this clean, spacious, and convenient place. The village was delightful, pubs and bakeries to eat at, easy free parking right at the door, and easy access to Cambridge and the area. Louise was easy to work with, very helpful and responsive. No one would be disappointed staying here while they explored the area.

The perfect escape from city life
From the moment I saw the property and entered, I felt calm, relaxed and serene. The property is delightful, hygienic, soothingly decorated and I was able to 'recharge the batteries' which enjoying the Cambridge music festival. Thank you for making the stay so relaxing and I would most definitely return!

Gorgeous house in a lovely, friendly village
The house is exceptionally comfortable and well set up, wry comfortable beds, lovely kitchen and living areas. It’s on the Main Street so incredibly handy to local pubs for a meal, a beautiful cafe, and the bus service to Cambridge is a very short walk away. Louise was terrific to deal with, really helpful, and provides many ideas for looking around the local area. We couldn’t have been happier - thank you for making your place available Louise!

Just lovely
Beautiful cottage in a lovely friendly village. The beds are super-comfy. Really cosy place to stay. Spotlessly clean and well equipped. Several great pubs nearby serving excellent food within walking distance. Good base for exploring Cambridge and nearby areas.

Cosy autumn break
We had a great time staying in the Old Reading Room. The cottage is very comfortable, with good amenities. The setting in the middle of the pleasant village of Linton was very convenient, for the local shops, cafe and pubs. Although no allocated parking, we parked right by the cottage all of our stay. There are some great touches by the owners - a large map on the wall pointing out walks and places of interest, games and books. The cottage is in easy reach of Cambridge and we also went to Audley End. We ran out of time to go to the zoo, but there is always next time...

Comfortable cottage with everything you need
The cottage is a little haven to come back to after busy days visiting Duxford, Cambridge and the amazing Air show at Shuttleworth. One very happy teenage grandson! It is very well appointed and comfortable and has a lovely little courtyard to sit in. Linton itself is another delight and the Linton Kitchen cafe next door has a excellent selection for lunch.

Fabulous short break
Great spacious, well kept property in a fabulous location in Linton with the Linton Kitchen a short distance up the road and a bakery almost opposite. Three pubs in the village and a Co-op make this an ideal location. The map on the wall with locations marked and the books are a nice touch. Would stay again.
