Welcome to Babraham
Babraham is small village, just south of Cambridge in the United Kingdom. The village is set in open countryside, has its own Primary School and welcoming pub and is home to the renowned Babraham Institute and Biotechnology Research Campus. We have easy access to the motorway network, main line rail stations and, via public transport, to the University City of Cambridge.
Babraham has an active Parish Council and also benefits from other charities and social organisations. Several business and a major farming enterprise are based in the village and it is well placed close to the centres of research and employment at Addenbrookes Teaching Hospital, Cambridge Technology Park, The Genome Project and the various business parks in South Cambridgeshire. There are a range of places to stay locally - details of all of these and more can be found within these pages.
