Our campus is peaceful yet inspiring, where guests are encouraged to relax and ‘walk on the grass’ and relax in our informal, pretty gardens.
The College is home to the Women’s Art Collection, which was recently featured in Vogue Magazine, as one of the best places to visit in Cambridge. The collection is the second largest of it’s kind in the world and free to self-tour. This permanent collection include pieces by Barbara Hepworth, Elizabeth Frink, Paula Rego, Maggi Hambling and Judy Chicago. There are often exciting temporary exhibitions too.
The College is a pleasant 10-minute stroll over Magdalene Bridge and the river Cam to the historic city centre and free parking is available on site on a first come, first served basis.
Our breakfast will help your day get off to a great start. Most often served in the spectacular brand new Art Café.
