Cambridge

Boasting one of the world’s most prestigious universities, Cambridge is a town brimming with history, tradition and endless charm.  At the heart of the town is Cambridge University split into individual architecturally stunning colleges but there is more to this historical city than colleges and scholars.  It is home to some of England’s most beautiful churches, chapels not to mention the many diverse museums that you can immerse yourself in.

Enjoy lazy days relaxing in one of the many green parks Cambridge has to offer or find a quiet spot by the river Cam and watch the world go by.  No trip to Cambridge would be complete without indulging in the traditional Cambridge pastime – punting. Spend an afternoon punting on the River Cam floating past famous landmarks or if you are feeling lazy let someone else do the hard work!

As one of the most famous universities in the world, don’t miss exploring the beautifully kept university grounds.  Made up of 31 colleges, the most famous is Kings College recognisable by its distinctive gothic chapel. The best way to see everything is to put on your waking shoes and take a walking tour.

After a busy day exploring this idyllic town why not treat yourself to a well- deserved drink at one of the traditional pubs.  After all, where else can you visit the same spots that famous Cambridge scholars have also enjoyed a tipple?  If you fancy a bite to eat then you’re spoilt for choice. Whether you prefer a 3 course dinner at a contemporary restaurant or fish and chips by the river you will find something to suit you.

For those who like to indulge in a little retail therapy Cambridge offers everything from high street brands to independent boutiques to mouth-watering food markets.

Bored of walking? Cambridge is a cyclist’s paradise so why not swap for two wheels and explore this small city by bike.  However you do it and whatever you do this lively city will not disappoint.
