About Drift Inn
Right off the A1, halfway between Cambridge and Milton Keynes, Drift Inn isyou check in, chill out, and crack on.
We’ve got a lake out front, a golf course out back, and a vibe that says “let’s not overcomplicate things.” Rooms are slick, smart, and sorted with everything you need — fast Wi-Fi, big beds, good showers, and zero waffle.
The Gravel Pit Café & Bar slinging bold plates with a side of lake views. And if you’rea bit of spa time, Y Spa’s just next door — mist showers, outdoor hydro pool, the works. Book it early, it’s popular for a reason.
Here for a meeting? A meetup? A mates’ weekend? Sorted. From power lunches to last-round cocktails, we’re built for work and the wind-down.
