The Meadow House (B&B)

For a place known for its world-renowned racecourse, Newmarket was always going to have some quality places to stay nearby. Meadow House, a large modern house near Burwell, is a family-run affair offering smart spacious bedrooms – a mix of king size, doubles and twins – and honest home cooked food. Two acres of wooded grounds provide the perfect playground for outdoor lovers and clipped lawns offer pleasant and peaceful views from your bedroom window. When dinner calls, take a short stroll to the village and choose from four pubs serving good food and local ales. Venturing further afield? You're not far from Ely with its beautiful cathedral and the picturesque beauty of the Fens.
