CB1
CB1 is a 15-minute walk from campus and is close to Cambridge train station, supermarkets and plenty of restaurants. It’s also less than ten minutes from a bowling alley, gym, theatre and cinema, so there’s always something to do nearby.
There are 392 en-suite rooms, and 119 studio flats, some of which are suitable for couples. CB1 is managed by CRM Students, who provide 24-hour support from the on-site reception.
