Ely is a lovely Fenland town approximately 15miles from Cambridge. Easy to get to by train or car. The town is on the river and you can take boat trips. The Malting's sells a mix match of antiques. The tea shop by the river gives you lovely home cooked food and cakes in quirky cups and saucers.
A small art gallery (The Babylon) is worth a look.

Beautiful National Trust property;
'In 1938, Capt. George Bambridge and his wife, Elsie, daughter of Rudyard Kipling, purchased it after having been tenants since 1932. They used the inheritance left to them by her father, and the royalties from his books, for the long-needed refurbishment of the house and grounds. The final chapter of Wimpole as an owner-occupied residence was closed in 1976 when Elsie died, leaving the property to the National Trust.
Over the centuries many notable architects have worked on it, including James Gibbs (between 1713 and 1730), Henry Flitcroft (around 1749), John Soane (1790s), and H. E. Kendall (1840s).[9] There are decorative schemes by the painter James Thornhill (1721).'
Entrance fee to the house only. You can walk in the large estate for free (although there is a donation box). It costs approx £2.00 to park not the estate however you get this back if you purchase food in the cafe.
Takes about 20-30 minutes to get there from my home.
