Pretty old fashioned, but nothing wrong about this place. Owner is a funny and friendly guy, within walking distance from the city center. Could use a little modernisating here and there, but maybe the old English feel would be gone than...

We came to Cambridge to drop our daughter for interview at the university. We booked a double ensuite room and we were able to park the car and walk into Cambridge, taking about 15-20 mins. We did however surrender to a taxi coming back in the evening in the freezing cold. Shame that although, the Southampton is on a main... More

I stayed at the Southampton Guest House for 6 nights while getting my daughter settled at her university. It was a wonderful value for the price, and a very pleasant stay. Yvonne and Stephane are warm and helpful hosts, and the location was great, about 10 minutes walk from the City Centre. (Walking back in the evening along Midsummer Common... More

A good little B and B! Very Clean and comfortable. A little dated with the wall paper dating back a while and one of those moving water pictures in the breakfast room which I have not seen an example of since my local Indian had one about 25 years ago. Very friendly hosts and the best breakfast I have had... More

I revisited the Southampton Guest House for the fifth or sixth time after a few years absence. Stephano and Yvonne continue to provide a comfortable and relaxing place to stay and an excellent breakfast. Room 4 was very clean and contained everything you would expect. Very good value for money.

We stayed here for 1 night after finding it by chance as everywhere was full due to the strawberry fair being on. Well all I can say we were very lucky as it was really really nice and very reasonably priced compared to others we tried. Great value for your money. We were greeted with a warm smile and she...

We were given a warm welcome at the Southampton Guest House. Although it is not in the centre of Cambridge, (the very reasonable prices reflect this) it is only a pleasant 15 minute walk to the centre, and the shops. The rooms are spotlessly clean, and have tea and coffee making facilities, and biscuits. The proprietors, are very kind, and... More
