Bed and breakfast accommodation in Cambridge University colleges

Staying in historic Cambridge college accommodation during the student vacations is a unique opportunity.  With centrally-located bed and breakfast (B&B) rooms from £34, it is a cost effective alternative to staying in a hotel, and by providing the college with revenue you will be contributing to the upkeep of the famous buildings.

You could trace the footsteps of graduates such as Newton, Darwin, Wordsworth, John Cleese, and Prince Charles.  You will eat in the college hall, and could wander through the college's gardens and courts, learn about the college's history, and take a punt along the river followed by a drink in the college bar.

Availability is mainly in the vacation periods (Christmas, Easter, Summer), when students clear their rooms. Rooms typically become available two to three months in advance, so please revisit the website within that period if nothing is available now.

"The room was excellent, the welcome good, and accommodation full of character": David Cross
