Not a very big garden, but it is packed with beauty. A quiet place close to the river Cam. Admittance is 2 pound for adults.

My wife and I were staying at Clare College and we both were taken by how brilliant this garden is. It's worth some time any day to walk though -- make sure to walk the boxwood lined back path.

Clare College was open to the public in September and this garden was a delight to meander through. And it was a meander, with little paths and hidden gardens spread throughout the area, leading you off in all directions.

Unfortunately the weather was not very good when we went in. But it did not spoil the beauty of the gardens. They are so well maintainrd with lots of different flowers and I got some ideas for my autumn garden. There are plenty of seats so on a warn day it is a quiet place to relax for a while.... More

The garden is not very big. On the contrary, it is quite small in comparison with the others but is still shining. Good place to take a sun bath in quiet atmosphere or playing with you children on weekend. You can lay down and just enjoy everything. 2GBP/adult.

I never tire of visiting here when we come to visit our daughter who is studying at Clare college. A 'must visit' for anyone visiting Cambridgre for the first time.

Just to walk or take some photographs. Probably the very best garden in Cambridge... Perhaps a little smaller than we expected but it well worth a visit, before King's College Chapel.

Very lovely garden with hardly anyone else in it. It must take hours and hours of work to keep it so well tended.
