Cambridge is one of the finest cities in Britain, with a heady mix of ancient charm and world-leading hi-tech industries. Based on a classic design, set in spacious grounds near the centre of Cambridge, Fitzwilliam encapsulates this rare blend of history and innovation, living up to its heraldic motto of providing 'the best of the old and the new'.
