HUB<br />
Getting In & Around<br />
The famous university city of Cambridge is just 49 miles away<br />
from London. Served by regular train and bus services, getting<br />
there is easy and doable as a daytrip. Known as Britain’s most<br />
cycle-friendly city, ditch the car and hire a bike while you’re<br />
there. The city is fairly compact and flat, meaning you can<br />
almost certainly see all the sights using pedal power alone.<br />
Things to Do & See<br />
With more than 1,000 years of history, there’s something<br />
new (or old) to see around every cobbled street corner in<br />
Cambridge. Walk in the footsteps of some of Great Britain’s<br />
finest minds that studied at the university, go for a punt<br />
on the river Cam, or discover some of the city’s fascinating<br />
museums. Don’t forget to visit one of 280 independent shops<br />
while you’re there.<br />
Dining<br />
With cosy pubs warmed by roaring fires in the winter and<br />
contemporary modern eateries catering for all the family,<br />
you’re spoiled for choice when it comes to restaurants in<br />
Cambridge. If you want to treat yourself to a night of fine<br />
dining, we recommend booking a table at the exclusive<br />
Midsummer House. Tasting menus are highly sought after<br />
and feature the best of modern British cuisine.<br />
Accommodation<br />
The city of Cambridge is served by hotels and B&Bs to fit<br />
every taste and budget, from big name chain hotels that<br />
offer comfort and a familiar setting to classy boutiques that<br />
promise a luxury stay. The Fellows House Curio Collection by<br />
Hilton is one of the highest rated places to stay and would<br />
certainly be our choice. Head over to the next page to see our<br />
