Tom's Cakes

Highlight • Cafe

A cake paradise. Handily situated near the end of the Busway cycle route. Often busy so avoid peak times if you don't want to queue.

A14 Cycle Path: Cambridge to Fenstanton

Highlight • Cycleway

Part of the new Cambridge to Fenstanton cycle route beside the A14. Wide and smooth.

Tip by

16.7 km

Wide tarmacked path paralleling the A14. Nice and smooth although some dirt and stones on the surface in places. A good way to access Girton only let down by the poor connection at the southern end: the choice is to either weave through a housing estate to reach the Girton Road or go over the A14 bridge and down a couple of hundred meters of dirt path to reach the Huntingdon Road. A shame they didn't create a proper link to the Huntingdon Road but I guess the developers only built what they were required to and not a meter more.

The Nook Café

Highlight • Cafe

Current opening times are 10-2pm. Very friendly though: even though I got there at 2:45, the door was still open and they sold me a cold drink and topped up my water bottle.

St Ives Bridge and Chapel

Highlight • Bridge

St Ives Bridge is a 15th-century bridge crossing the River Great Ouse. It is noted for being one of only four bridges in England to incorporate a chapel, the monks never being one to miss an opportunity to make money, the chapel doubled up as a toll-house. Safe passage is no longer charged for on this bridge.
