Trumpington is a thriving, fast
growing part of the city that still manages to retain its village
identity and sense of community. It is exceptionally well located
for access into the Addenbrooke‘s campus, out to the M11 and into
the city by car, bus, guided bus, one of a few purpose built cycle
routes, or even an enthusiastic walk. The city‘s mainline station
can be easily reached along the guided busway cycleway without
having to mix with car traffic at all.
The area has three primary
schools and a brand new state of the art secondary school built in
2016 with excellent sporting facilities. Many of the city‘s finest
private schools are within easy cycling distance. There are also
various restaurants, pubs, shops, a post office, barber, GP
surgery, pharmacy, library and community centre. There is a major
Waitrose supermarket and a Sainsbury‘s local.
Trumpington Meadows nature
reserve links Trumpington through to Byron‘s Pool and Grantchester
and there is a second country park between Trumpington and the
Addenbrooke‘s campus. Various bridleways and footpaths lead
immediately out into the countryside towards Harston, Haslingfield,
Barton and Grantchester.
