Location

Located only 12 miles away from the city of Cambridge, Fenstanton is a quiet countryside parish in Huntingdonshire with a population of 3,000 to 4,000 people. St Ives sits 10 minutes away to the north, making it easy for local residents to commute to and from work, while providing the perfect escape away from the busier confines of nearby towns and cities. The relatively small population of Fenstanton are served by a variety of amenities including a convenience store, café, hairdressers, butchers, chemist, dentist, post office and primary school, with The Duchess serving as the main pub in the village. The White Swan pub in Conington and The Three Tuns at Fen Drayton are also great alternatives and can be found just outside Fenstanton. St Ives offers a little more nearby, with good quality Italian, Indian, Mediterranean and Chinese restaurants to choose from. It's also where you'll find the One Leisure Indoor Centre, that offers everything from swimming facilities to numerous keep-fit classes. There's a large Morrisons, Aldi and Waitrose in St Ives where you can do you weekly or monthly shopping and if you want to head into nearby Cambridge, Huntingdon Road/A1307 will take you there in only 25 minutes. There is also access to the guided bus which provides a regular direct service to central Cambridge and the Cambridge Science Park. The opening of the new A1307 link road means that you can access Huntingdon train station in approximately 10 minutes and trains from Huntingdon arrive into Kings Cross or St Pancras within an hour. Fen Drayton Lakes Nature Reserve is only a couple of miles away and attracts a delightful variety of wildlife throughout the year, including ducks, geese, otters and swans, and the wetlands run for 25 miles (40km) along the floodplains of the Great Ouse.
