Location - Cambourne
Cambourne is a highly popular civil parish in the district of South Cambridgeshire, approximately 9 miles west of Cambridge, 9 miles east of St. Neots, and 12 miles south of Huntingdon. Cambourne comprises the three villages of Great Cambourne, Lower Cambourne and Upper Cambourne and is the largest settlement in South Cambridgeshire.

Cambourne was initially going to be named Monkfield after the name of the original farm, which is commemorated by Monkfield Lane in Great Cambourne and the village pub, The Monkfield Arms. However, Cambourne was chosen, created from the names of Cambridge, the nearest city, and Bourn, a nearby village.

Cambourne offers excellent amenities, including a Morrisons supermarket, petrol station, medical practice, dentist, veterinary practice, police and fire station, several estate agents, schools, dry cleaners, cafes, many takeaways and a pharmacy. It is also home to the popular Cambridge Belfry hotel, run by DoubleTree by Hilton. Various sports clubs for all ages are located in the villages, including football, rugby, tennis, netball and cricket clubs with their own pitches.

The villages are ideal for commuters with access to major roads including the M11, A14 and A1. The nearest train station is in St Neots and there is a bus service operating between Cambourne and Cambridge, with services also to St Neots, St Ives and Huntingdon.
