Portugal Street is nestled between Bridge Street and the open grounds of the River Cam, right in the heart of the city centre. This charming pedestrian thoroughfare was once described by the Cambridge News as one of Cambridge’s prettiest streets and perhaps one of its best-kept secrets, tucked away from the main tourist paths.
The city centre is within close proximity, offering a comprehensive range of shopping, leisure and cultural facilities, the Cambridge Colleges and gardens. Cambridge mainline station is approximately 2.1 miles away with regular services to London King's Cross and Liverpool Street. Schools for all age groups in both the state and private sectors are close by, and good road links via the M11 and A14 provide onward access to major road networks.
