Quirky and Unusual Holiday Cottages in Cambridgeshire

Cambridgeshire: Riverside Wanders, Punts, Fens, and Big Skies

Cambridgeshire is a county where waterways, wide-open skies, and quietly brilliant towns set the scene. From the world-famous colleges and punting paths of Cambridge to the historic streets of Ely, the market-town charm of St Ives, and the peaceful fenland villages dotted across the landscape, there's a calm, spacious feel that makes exploring a joy. Flat, scenic routes are perfect for cycling, riverside strolls, and lingering picnics with a view, especially during the golden light of early morning or late afternoon.

Look a little closer and Cambridgeshire reveals its playful side. Discover independent cafés tucked along the river, climb cathedral towers for sweeping views, or watch the world drift by from a waterside bench. With its blend of heritage, open landscapes, and cottages full of character, Cambridgeshire is the kind of place where holidays feel quietly clever, gently quirky, and wonderfully unhurried, ideal for those seeking charm and relaxation in equal measure.
