Away from the crowds – Grantchester
One of our favourite parts of the river Cam is away from the crowds. Head over to Mill Pond, grab a drink from Mill Pond Pub and watch life on the river go by.
Here, at Mill Pond, you can hire a kayak, canoe or punt for self-hire and meander through fenland, woods and meadows to the beautiful village of Grantchester. This picturesque village, a stone’s throw away from Cambridge, is also known for the popular BBC TV series ‘Grantchester’. Enjoy a picnic at Grantchester Meadows or head over to Grantchester for a cup of tea and scones under the apple trees at Grantchester Orchards. The perfect outings for a sunny day in Cambridge.
