Severe storms interrupted the afternoon singles, but Cambs and Hunts kept their concentration and wins for Jane McGuffog, Lesley Ince, Sam Kingsbury and Mo Webster in the top four matches put the team in a strong position.
However Bedfordshire staged a great recovery by winning the next three singles to level the scores, and it was left to home captain Grace Eastment to win the last singles match on the 17th hole to secure a 6.5-5.5 victory.
