GREAT ST MARY’S REVIEWS
Excellent views from the church tower. You might need to catch your breath after climbing all those round shaped steps but the amazing view will take your breath away. The church entry is free of charge but the tower visit requires a ticket. Family tickets for two adults and two kids are a good deal!
Took a walk to the top of the tower. My calves killed by the end but worth the pain as the views were as good as they said they would be.
It was an amazing experience. The stairs were narrower but worth the view from the top of the church. Affordable ticket price.

OUR LADY OF THE ASSUMPTION AND THE ENGLISH MARTYRS REVIEWS
This is probably the most beautiful buildings in the area and being a catholic church, I was very happy that it was open during the day. You can freely enter the building, take pictures, admire the view or pray, without any issues. It is very interesting how, despite that it’s on a very busy junction, when you enter the building it’s like you enter a different realm, everything changes – the sound, the light And what I particularly like about churches, the air! You can probably get a good idea of the look of the place from the pictures and videos online but that has nothing to do with being there. I highly recommend. Unfortunately, there is no car park around the park for free, but if you are planning a visit to Cambridge, I believe it’s worth it to park at the nearest paid car park which is Queen Anne Terrace car Park.
Wonderful and solemn Sunday Liturgy!! Lively and active community. The Church itself is also “majestic” inside and outside, so very much worth visiting it.
Good place for peace and prayer. Beautiful atmosphere and feeling blessed always.

HOLY TRINITY CHURCH REVIEWS
Its a Contemporary style of church. Instead of hyyms they use proper songs with a band made of violins, drums, singers, keyboard and guitars. They have camera which is linked across 8 or so TV screens so you can clearly see the service anywhere in the church and these TV screen show the lyrics to the songs. The pastor and staff are lovely and very helpful I will say though they often connect 3 or more song together with no pause. Church is one of the oldest on Cambridge (with one of the first pastors being in the 1500s)
One of the best places to truly worship God together. One of the best place to worship Christ with all our hearts. Church encourages and focuses on students and professionals who are new to faith or who are exploring christianity.
Lovely warm and welcoming church. Great for all ages and backgrounds. Such a lovely mix of people from all over the world.
