Location - Shingay Cum Wendy
Shingay cum Wendy is a picturesque parish village in the county of Cambridgeshire, around 5 miles northwest of Royston, 12 miles northwest of Baldock, and 12 miles southwest of Cambridge.
Historically, Shingay and Wendy were two separate parishes which were joined in 1957. The straight eastern boundary with Whaddon follows Ermine Street, a major Roman road that for centuries ran from London to Lincoln and York, and the northern boundary with Croydon and Arrington follows the winding course of the River Cam. It shares its southern borders with Bassingbourn, Abington Pigotts and Steeple Morden. While a quiet, sleepy village, Shingary cum Wendy has the benefit of being close to these neighbouring villages and all their amenities, including various excellent pubs and restaurants, convenience stores, doctor’s and dentist’s surgeries, several well-regarded nurseries, primary and secondary schools, churches with regular services, and much more.
Shingay cum Wendy is also a stone’s throw from the locally renowned National Trust property, Wimpole Hall. The grounds and surrounding area offer locals idyllic walks, wildlife spotting, and further means of escape from the hustle and bustle of daily life.
Residents can benefit from excellent transport links, with a mainline train station in the neighbouring town of Royston offering regular fast services to both Cambridge and London Kings Cross. The A1M and M11 are within a 20-minute drive via the A10/A505, and London Stansted and Luton Airports are both around 30 minutes away.
If you’re on the lookout for a home in a beautiful, countryside location, we encourage you to visit Shingay cum Wendy. It’s not one you want to miss!
