Visiting Pembroke (dining rights & accommodation)

Dining Rights and Guest Rooms

Old Members who hold an MA or other Master's degree or a higher degree from the University, or are qualified for an MA, are welcome to dine in College during term or the period of residence in the Long Vacation. For the academic year 2011-2012, "term" means 4 October to 2 December, 17 January to 16 March and 24 April to 15 June; residence in the Long Vacation runs for five weeks from early July.

Dining for Members is available on any evening of the week during term or Long Vacation residence except Tuesday or Saturday and on occasions when large College events take place. A Member may dine as a guest of the College at High Table up to four times each academic year, if a Fellow is present to preside. On one of those occasions, overnight accommodation is free of charge for the Member, if it is available. This general invitation supplements privileges accorded already to many Old Members who live locally.

Overnight accommodation may also be available in College, at a reasonable charge, for a visit of one or two nights. The College has four en suite guest rooms: two twin-bedded rooms and two double-bedded rooms (£35 to £37.50 per person, per night). Given these limited facilities, early notice is strongly advised when making inquiries. If a Member's plans change, the College would be grateful to be informed at the earliest opportunity.

Arrangements for dining, or for staying in a guest room, should be made through the Development Office either by telephone (01223 339079), letter, fax (01223 339081), or email dev@pem.cam.ac.uk. Early notice is strongly advised, since the number of guest rooms is very limited.
