Five nights in September at Cherry Hinton gave us two retired caravanners a perfect break for exploring Cambridge, Newmarket, Ely, St Ives and the NT Wimpole House estate. Everyone says how welcoming and friendly the wardens are and we agree. Top marks! The only negatives but not in any big way are aircraft noise (offset by the chance of seeing classic vintage aircraft from Duxford) and the traffic which makes a trip into Cambridge or anywhere along the A14 a driving nightmare. If you go, DO walk Grantchester Meadows along the Cam. A truly English experience! But I imagine parents with young families would find Cherry Hinton too limiting.
