It will depend I guess on how much student finance you're entitled to – Cambridge is a fairly expensive southern city, so rents are fairly high (though slightly less so because you're accommodated by your college at slightly lower than market rates), but the actual cost of living (eating, drinking, enjoying) is pretty comparable to most other cities/unis.
