YOU CAN WALK ON THE GRASS

PORTERS ARE SO FRIENDLY

Really friendly, has a good reputation of being both sociable and studious. Very good at sports as well. Has a really good comedy night. The JCR is very good and replies to suggestions and queries quickly. Friendliest porters in Cambridge definitely!!! Not stuffy or pretentious, formals have really good food for a decent price and you don't have to wear a gown.

Very good amenities; large rooms with big windows. Also hall food is one of the best in Cambridge and relatively cheap compared with other colleges

It is a bit further away from the centre (but only a 10 min cycle and its actually quite nice to be out the busy streets and have peace, quiet and lots of green space.

Distance from centre of town - can sometimes be a trek to hang out with central college friends

Buildings look ugly - but this does mean no crowds of tourists photographing it

What is the cafeteria like?

There's always a Vegan and Vegetarian option at every meal and they are usually very good, comparable to meat dishes-- you barely even notice that it is vegan/vegetarian!
