The Cambridge Relocation Guide: Getting Settled

To help make your transition completely seamless, our concierge team has gathered a few essential local resources for your first week in the city:

  • Getting Around: Cambridge is world-famous as a cycling city, but for longer journeys, the Greater Anglia train service from Cambridge Central station connects you to London King’s Cross in under 50 minutes.
  • Local Life & Culture: When you aren’t punting on the River Cam, explore the local historic estates. We highly recommend a weekend walk through the stunning grounds of Wimpole Estate a local treasure managed by the National Trust.
  • Council Services: For school admissions, parking permits, and council tax setups, the Cambridge City Council website has everything you need to get registered.

 Why Cambridge Trusts Instant Home

Our journey began right here in the local area back in 2000. Our founder, Hollie, was working in a Cambridgeshire based letting agency when a relocation agent called desperately trying to house employees for 12 months. Because no furnished properties were available, the agency had to turn the lucrative business away.

That was Hollie’s “light bulb” moment. She launched a simple 1-page website to bridge that exact gap, and as orders flew in, and the family-run business grew organically into the national operation it is today.

 For 25 years, our “nothing is too much trouble” philosophy has earned us the trust of international executives, local independent letting agents, and major institutions alike. When you choose our Cambridge delivery team, you receive:

  • Complete Installation: We don’t just drop boxes at your door. Our in-house delivery team handles the heavy lifting, assembles every piece of furniture, dresses the beds, and even puts away the kitchen cutlery.
  • The Signature Welcome Hamper: Every full setup includes our iconic blue welcome pack filled with first-night essentials, sweet treats, and mugs so you can put the kettle on immediately.
  • A Commitment to Sustainability: We love our beautiful city, which is why we run regular internal audits to minimise our footprint. We proudly donate our high-quality used furniture within the Cambridgeshire community and plant two trees every month through the National Trust.
