Dear readers I need your suggestion. I will come to England for one
week for visiting London and the sorrondings. Because the airplane is
landing in Stansted, I thaought that taking an accomodation in
Cambridge would be
practical for living some days in a beautiful "small" english town
and also being not too far from London.
Is it a good idea to rent a car and to drive from Cambridge to a
place somewhere near London where it is possible to park and to go by
underground train to the center of the city? I always do so when I
have to go to Milan from my town in the north of Italy.
Do you think that the traffic conditions near Cambridge are such that
I can make a good use of the car to visit for instance the seaside
(Norfolk)
or another town like Oxford? Or I will be spending ours in queues?
Thank you for your suggestions. I love England where I spent one year
40 years ago (and I also got a british driving licence).

I think Roland and Arthur have made good suggestions. Public transport is
good for tourism these days while main roads are very busy.

You will find accommodation costs might be higher in or close to Cambridge
though.

Cambridge has active local newsgroups so I have cross posted this to
cam.transport.
