"Life in Cambridge"

Spectacular architecture, modern amenities and beautiful outdoor spaces all tucked together in a convenient and compact city make Cambridge a uniquely appealing place. With good links to London, reliable public transport, a car-free centre and well-maintained bike paths, it’s easy to get around sustainably. In fact, Cambridge is the cycling capital of the UK, with more than 55% of locals cycling at least once a week. The city is well-served by healthcare facilities including Addenbrooke’s Hospital, which is also a leading centre for medical research. Families have a range of options to ensure their children get a quality education. Cambridge offers a strong network of state-funded primary and secondary schools rated “good” or “outstanding” by Ofsted, as well as prestigious independent schools and even schools that specifically aim to provide an international curriculum. Cambridge punches above its weight culturally, with concert halls, theatres, libraries, museums and galleries. And in the summer, the city’s many parks and meadows are perfect for picnics or walks, while the slow and serene River Cam offers boating options from rowing to kayaking, paddleboarding and punting.
