ith Covid-19 restrictions tightening up again, the city’s main venues all still closed and the weather cooling, we’re likely to be spending a fair bit of time at home over the coming weeks. With that in mind, this issue has inspiration for cosying up your interiors (page 77), cooking up hearty feasts (page 27) and a round-up of the top new novels to curl up with this autumn (page 19). If, however, you do want to get out and about, there’s definitely enough to keep you busy – as we discover in our What’s On pages. Thumb your way to page 13 to find out about the reopening of Kettle’s Yard and Saffron Screen, plus virtual culture you can enjoy from under your duvet, as we bring you news of Cambridge Literary Festival’s online event and Cambridge University’s partnership with Google. Halloween fans might not be able to throw a party or go trick or treating this month, but they can still get their spooky kicks at events including punting ghost tours, pumpkin picking and Scaresville – an immersive horror experience that really isn’t for the faint of heart! If your holiday plans have been scuppered but you’re still keen for a night away, check out our round-up of spectacular staycations, all of which are within a couple of hours’ drive of Cambridge. From seaside glam at Southwold’s most famous hotel, to a country manor reborn in Norfolk, we’ve got the inside tips on East Anglia’s most beautiful boltholes to escape to on page 55. Also in this issue, a unique weddings special sees local suppliers reflect on the impact the pandemic has had on the industry, and we hear from Cambridge couples who had their Big Day plans turned upside down. From panicked rescheduling and drastic scaling down exercises to unexpected silver linings, read
