Dear Guests

After 13 years of welcoming our many guests from the UK and around the world to Duke House, retirement beckons. As a result, Duke House has closed its doors in its current form for the final time from 30 November 2024. 

I should like to warmly thank all the many wonderful guests who have stayed with us at Duke House. Many of you returned year on year and it has truly been a joy to welcome you all. I would especially like to thank Carmen and Tina who have been the best team anybody could wish for in providing a five-star guest experience. 

I do hope you will continue to visit and enjoy Cambridge. It is an amazing city and I am very proud that we could have been a part of it. 

With gratitude and warm wishes.

Liz

MUM’S GONE TO… Travel tales of an empty nester

Recently we had a review published on a travel website, below is an excerpt.

Duke House is an exquisite little B&B, just the sort of place the city has been crying out for. It’s located in a terrace in Victoria Street, in the heart of the city centre, just behind my alma mater. With five luxury bedrooms and one self-catering apartment, it’s a tiny oasis in the bustling city. You wouldn’t think you were only a short walk from the bus station or the Grand Arcade shopping centre.

It has a fascinating history. Built in 1860, it was used both privately and commercially during Victorian times. For much of the 20th century it was a decorating and plumbing business. It took a right royal turn in 1967 when HRH Prince Richard, Duke of Gloucester, bought the property. As a student of architecture at Magdalene College at the time, he saw the house as his project, making many alterations which gave the property its character today. In the lobby of the hotel there are photos from a more recent visit from the Duke in 2012 when he came to see how the current owners, Liz and Rob Cameron, had changed his former home into luxury B&B accommodation. He stayed, quite fortuitously, in the guest room named The Duke.
