I wanted to stay somewhere unique and different; Champing delivered in abundance! I needed somewhere to stay overnight in Cambridgeshire and I did not want to stay in some nondescript chain hotel, so after some Googling came across Champing. What a revelation; no under occupancy or single supplement charges, no high season, and something definitely unique; I booked immediately!
On arrival everything was exactly as described; I certainly was not lacking in space to spread out, plus there was a modern inside toilet and small kitchen area! Many thought I was mad to spend the night in a church on my own and to be honest I was a little apprehensive, however once settled in and with my picnic, wine and beautiful surroundings I felt very much at home. Ironically I ended up having the best night’s sleep in weeks!
Beautiful location, very quiet with just one pub in the village and
plenty of walking opportunities on your doorstep. My only disappointment was that I was only staying for one night.
One visitor who was looking around the churchyard whilst I was there mentioned that the reason there are 2 churches next to each other (St Mary’s is literally metres away and is as large) is due to some sibling rivalry and each brother built their own church. Would be interested to know if this was true!
