Trumpington is a thriving part of the city that still manages to retain its village identity and sense of community. There are 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. The area has three primary schools, a state-of-the-art secondary school with excellent sporting facilities and many of the city's finest private schools are within easy cycling distance.
Trumpington is exceptionally well located for access into the city centre by car, bus, guided bus, cycle routes, or even an enthusiastic walk. The location is positioned close to Addenbrookes Hospital, the Cambridge Biomedical Campus, and the soon to open Cambridge South train station. The city's mainline station can also be easily reached along the guided busway cycleway without having to mix with car traffic at all. The Trumpington Park & Ride is a short walk away with direct access into central Cambridge.
For outdoor enthusiasts, Trumpington Meadows nature reserve links Trumpington through to Byron's Pool and Grantchester and there is a second country park between Trumpington and the Addenbrookes campus. Various bridleways and footpaths lead immediately out into the countryside towards Harston, Haslingfield, Barton and Grantchester.
