“Excellent location, very quiet but just a short, fairly level walk into town. Several variants to route possible which made the walk into town more interesting. Good pavements and paths through parks. Set up and access into town probably workable...”

Property information

As an experienced host, I am excited to offer my place, The Opulent Birches. My fantastic newly purpose built detached house was designed to give guests the best experience possible. Stay in luxury and comfort when visiting Cambridge. This is the perfect self contained accommodation for any occasion. It doesn't matter if you're here for business or pleasure, The Birches is a stones throw from the river Cam and a 15 walk across the park to the city centre.

Neighbourhood information

The Birches is set in a very quiet cul de sac, yet its so close to the city centre. There are several pubs, its a short walk to one called The Boathouse, where you can sit in the garden and watch rowers going by on the river. It's also a 5 min walk from the 2 biggest parks in Cambridge, Midsummer Common & Christs Pieces. There are not many places in Cambridge it can feel so tranquil and quiet so close to the city centre.
