Cambridgeshire - Go Guides

Cambridgeshire is one of England’s inland counties and is perhaps best known for its university town. But beyond the centuries-old colleges and attractive landmarks, there’s more to discover in terms of untouched scenery and natural beauty. These include picturesque towns and villages along with the beautiful English countryside linked by walking trails.

Cambridgeshire treats you to areas rich in history and archaeological finds as well. There’s an aviation museum at Duxford with a warplane collection that harks back to World War I. After a long day exploring Cambridgeshire, you can always settle down for a traditional ale from the many family-run pubs or breweries in the quaint towns.
