Soham
Soham is the second largest town in East Cambridgeshire and is located between Ely (6 miles) and Newmarket (7 miles), both of which have a wide range of shopping and leisure facilities. The A142 has good connections with Cambridge via the A14.
Soham has its own range of local shops including the Co-Op & Asda and small eateries, pubs, hairdressers, leisure centre and doctors surgery. The town is a popular place to live for families due to the area’s proximity to Cambridge, Ely and Bury St Edmunds. There are three primary schools feeding into the well regarded Soham Village College. Soham train station links to Ely and the mainline to Cambridge and London. London Stansted airport is a 40 minute drive via the A11.
