Our two spacious, comfortable and homely suites, sat above the prize-winning tearoom in a Georgian building by the historic quayside on the River Great Ouse, are packed with antiques and books. All the attractions of Ely, as well as the open fenland countryside and railway station, are within easy walking distance. Breakfasts here are memorable: whether you start with our special granola, fresh fruit and yoghurt cocktail or go straight to a croque madame or Welsh rabbit, you won’t go hungry. The space The Cottage Suite offers comfort and quiet – the bedroom (which overlooks the back garden) and its own adjoining private sitting-room (which peeks out over the picturesque quayside) are both furnished with antiques. There’s a shower room and separate wc. The sitting room has a settee (that can be made up as a sofa-bed), plenty of books and more. Tea and coffee making facilities, wifi and tv will help you feel at home. There’ll be homemade shortbread and a plate of fresh fruit. At check-in you’ll be greeted with tea and cake. Breakfast is served downstairs in the tearoom. During your stay George & Rachel set up the tearoom in one room of their home in 2004, with George as front of house and Rachel cooking. It soon became known for its good food and friendly and homely character and within 3 years the Tea Guild named it the Top Tea Place in the UK. Now the tearoom occupies the ground floor and George and Rachel live in a new house behind the tearoom. They are helped in the B&B and tearoom by lovely staff headed by manager Krisztián and his wife Kat who runs the kitchen. If you need help planning your stay we are happy to share our local knowledge and answer your questions.
