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
