Cambridgeshire lies in the south-east of England, and borders Lincolnshire, Norfolk, Essex, Hertfordshire, Bedfordshire, and Northamptonshire. Its largest towns and cities are Peterborough, Ely and Cambridge, and the county is known for its agriculture, as well as being home to the second oldest university in England. Much of the county can be reached by train in less than an hour from central London, making it a firm favourite with event organisers. If you’re looking for conference venues, meeting rooms, party venues, or function rooms, this area of England is a great option. For large-capacity locations, the Imperial War Museum at Duxford (capacity 800), or the Doubletree by Hilton Cambridge (capacity 150) are ideal. For more cosy occasions, The Old Ferry Boat at St. Ives, and The Lamb Hotel at Ely, fit the bill perfectly, with the latter offering day delegate rates at very competitive prices.
