Cambridgeshire with its rolling hills golden with wheat and barley; beech woods; and broad rivers flowing through fertile farmland, towns and cities you’d love to live in, the medieval university city of Cambridge, Ely and Peterborough with their glorious cathedrals, the elegant Georgian town of Wisbech, and gems like Huntingdon and St Ives, their ancient houses built of stone.
Cambridgeshire has all the things you would expect to make your visit a success: great accommodation, restaurants and teashops, shopping and many things to see and do. But Cambridgeshire has something more. Difficult to define, but unforgettable. Perhaps a sense of still being somehow a slightly apart from the rest of the world.
