Dining Experience
The on-site restaurant serves British cuisine sourced from local suppliers, with vegetarian, vegan, and gluten-free options clearly marked. The chef regularly visits tables to check on diners and discuss the menu, a practice noted in guest reviews. For special occasions, the hotel offers customizable dining experiences, including private feasts and tailored set menus.
Accommodation
The hotel offers six ensuite bedrooms, each decorated with a cozy aesthetic and featuring a coffee machine, a mini fridge with fresh milk, and a radio playing soft music on arrival. Ground-floor rooms are available for guests with mobility needs, and all rooms include soundproofing and hypoallergenic bedding. Dog-friendly rooms come with a dedicated pet bed, bowls, treats, and blankets.

The Three Hills sits in the quiet village of Bartlow, 20 minutes by car from historic Cambridge and 12 km from Audley End House.

Family & Pet-Friendly Amenities
The hotel provides a dedicated children's menu, high chairs, and board games in the shared lounge. Dog amenities include a pet basket, water bowls, and a dedicated outdoor area for pets. Families can book the ground-floor rooms or the larger family suites, and the garden picnic area is suitable for al fresco dining with children.
Historic Setting & Awards
The hotel is named after three ancient burial mounds located within walking distance, adding a distinct historic character to the stay.
