We would recommend The 3 Pickerels to anybody. It was lovely and quiet and a nice contrast to being in the city (Ely). Ely was also an experience to relish. Ely offered us a unique spiritual experience. The restaurant at The 3 Pickerels offered plentiful variety and beautifully presented.

This has to be one of the nicest hotels we have stayed at in many a year. We arrived 2 hours early and were given key to the room and a very nice young lady showed us the way and explained the facilities. The evening meals were excellent, portions very good and excellent quality food and drink, the lad who served us was pleasant and always smiling. Lovely nights sleep was followed by a super english breakfast and real coffee. What a way to finish the stay. We had a walk around the grounds and it is plain to see the grounds have been lovingly tendered with great furniture etc. We will be back.
