The Cambridge Connection
As featured in Cambridge Edition
In a new monthly series, the team behind local communications agency, KUCO, share their highlights of local news and social goings-on.
The Three Horseshoes at Madingley
We have been busy working with The Three Horseshoes at Madingley and The Cock at Hemingford Grey, for example, to deck out their alfresco dining pods and you can now find two cosy igloos for private dining under the stars at each venue. Think twinkly fairy lights and faux fur snuggle factor.
KOTA, the new neighbourhood spot from the NOVI team, is setting the bar high for their first year with a sprinkle of KUCO magic. From parties stoked by botanical cocktails, to their first full Christmas day dining menu, KOTA has it all. The light, bright space lends itself to gatherings large and small, and if heading home after revelries feels a step too far, there are stunning aparthotel room upstairs at the uber stylish, Turing Locke.
Hygge hilltop bathing retreat PAUS will be opening on new year’s day for a spot of steaming on a in the fresh 2022 morning air. Another local gem we are honoured to work with and love to shout about wherever we can.
Orriss & Son Gift Set
Saucy stocking stuffer: Orriss & Son gift boxes
A sauce company close to our hearts, Orriss & Son, are offering their full three-sauce range in a one-off design box ready for gifting. These fiery finds are fiercely endorsed by KUCO favourite and TV chef, Tristan Welch. ‘Hot sauce can quite often be a brute of a condiment, however Orriss & Son floats like a butterfly and stings like a bee.’ With a local connection and local water ways providing design inspiration, help a devoted Cantabrigian start their spicy sauce journey. £20, from orrissandson.com and select local retailers.
Award-wining Cambridge Dental goes viral
One smile makeover competition and Cambridge goes crazy. We launched this stellar giveaway with Cambridge Dental, Newnham’s boutique dental practice, in October and saw it rocket to over 28,000 entries. This local gem has also just won Best Practice Design and Branding at the Private Dentistry Awards 2021. This recent success has been supported every step of the way with elevated photography, videography and social content from KUCO.
Chef Tristan Welch
One to watch
TV chef Tristan Welch of Parker’s Tavern has been charming the county with his weekly lives on Instagram for some time and now he’s taking things even further – with a little help from us at KUCO. In fact, his obscenely enticing cheese pasta reel is our one to watch for this month. Believe us, Tristan is a very naughty boy and it’s two minutes of prime social content, even if we do say so ourselves. Head to @chef_tristan_welch to have a watch.
