The College has 82 double en-suite bedrooms in the contemporary Dorothy Garrod Building, 5 accessible single en-suite bedrooms, and 300 bedrooms within the historic buildings.
All the buildings are set in 17 acres of secret gardens, undiscovered by Cambridge’s many visitors, offering a peaceful retreat from the city centre.
Newnham is around 10 minutes walk from the historic centre of Cambridge and all that this beautiful city has to offer.
Please note that bedrooms are available out of term only. Alumnae of Newnham College are invited to contact the College directly to book accommodation. Unfortunately, we are unable to accept under 16 year olds in our bedrooms.
