Murray Edwards is not your average Cambridge college. Founded in 1954, we're based in stylish modernist buildings set in gorgeous, flower-filled gardens that once belonged to the Darwin family.

We offer beautiful meeting and events spaces decorated in a cool, mid-century style, together with two bright, state-of-the-art conference venues, Paula Browne House and Buckingham House.

Our iconic Dome dining room is a unique space in Cambridge, and is filled with art from the Women's Art Collection - Europe's largest collection of art by women. More works from this stunning and important collection are scattered throughout our buildings and gardens.

Here we offer some of the best College dining in Cambridge, and we can even show you the secrets of our famous rising servery (excellent if you want a dessert course or even a DJ to emerge through the floor!).

You have to see us to believe us! Come and visit - we'll be happy to show you around and talk through your event needs. More details are available here.
