About Cambridge
Pick from a private studio or a shared flat with your own en-suite. Every room comes with a double bed, loads of storage, and plenty of space to study (or just crash after lectures).
Getting to uni is easy: it’s a 7-minute cycle to Anglia Ruskin University and around 15 minutes to the University of Cambridge. Too much to carry? Buses stop right outside, and there’s even a subsidised service to make life cheaper and easier.
For your downtime, Cambridge Retail Park is around the corner, and the city centre is packed with cafés, bars, shops, and clubs - all within a short walk or cycle.
