The Old School is set in an acre of gardens and horse paddocks, with splendid views across the Fens onto Ely Cathedral. The 3 bedrooms are all on ground floor level and have recently been tastefully re-decorated. They are accessible for guests with impaired mobility. Single occupancy on request. Authentic continental breakfasts are our speciality, or we will serve a full English cooked breakfast with your choice of quality ingredients. Breakfast is prepared in the newly fitted, purpose built kitchen next to the breakfast room with split-level residents’ lounge. Residents are welcome to relax in the conservatory overlooking the garden in the afternoon over a cup of tea or coffee and have access to a wide choice of books and information of local, equestrian, geographical and historical as well as general interest. Guests are welcome by arrangement to use the kitchen to store, prepare and heat their own food or order in a take-way and use the breakfast room for dinner should they not wish to go out for an evening meal. STRICTLY NO SMOKING. Car parking in former school yard. Dogs very welcome, other pets by arrangement. Special rates for long-term stays of a week or over. Wir sprechen Deutsch.

Directions

By Road:
From A142: The turn off to Coveney is between Witchford and Sutton. Drive carefully over the little bridge and follow the road into the village. Go straight ahead until you get to a T-junction with a turn-off to the right back to Ely. The Old School is straight ahead of you with the entrance into the school yard on Main Street.
From A10: The turn off to Coveney is on the A10 between the Ely roundabout and the Little Downham roundabout. The road is mainly single track with passing places. Follow the road until you get into the village slightly up a hill. On top there is a T-junction with The Old School on your right. Drive round the ether green with the chestnut tree on your right to get better access to the gate into the school yard.

NOTE: We are NOT the School House at 10 Main Street! Please be aware that our dogs might be running loose so please come to the glass doors and ring the bell so that we can meet and greet you and shut the dogs away if necessary, so that you can bring your car into the School yard.

By Public Transport:
The nearest main railway station is Ely. There is a taxi rank at the station or transport can be arranged.
