Why Burwell?
Burwell is a highly sought-after village. Why? Because it offers the best of both worlds: the peace and beauty of rural life alongside easy access to urban amenities. It also has a vibrant community and is a village that offers something for everyone. With a population of around 6,000 residents, Burwell has a rich history stretching back to Roman times. We love a fact, as you know, so here goes: the village's name derives from Old English, meaning ‘fort by the spring’. It is believed that the Romans established a fort here, likely due to Burwell's location near the River Cam.

There is a strong sense of community in Burwell, with the local magazine ‘Clunch’ detailing village news and upcoming events (inc. independent food truck visits, cider festivals, etc). It is undoubtedly a village with a lot going on.

Transport Links
Despite its rural feel, Burwell is well-connected in terms of transport, making it a convenient location for commuting or exploring the region. The village of Burwell is located approximately 11 miles from the university city of Cambridge and 5 miles from the historic horse racing town of Newmarket, with regular bus service to both. For those who work or frequently travel further afield, there is convenient access to the A14, which interconnects the M11 motorway to London and the A11 to the east.

Public transport options are also available, with regular bus services linking Burwell to Cambridge, Newmarket, and Ely. The nearest railway station is in Newmarket, which can be reached in under 10 minutes, offering connections to Cambridge and London. Cambridge railway station provides even more extensive national rail links, including frequent services to London King’s Cross and London Liverpool Street, making Burwell a viable option for commuters to the capital.

Social Scene
The village boasts a well-maintained recreational ground that has a large playing field, tennis courts, children’s play equipment, a skate park, and numerous gym equipment for gym bods to enjoy. The Burwell Community Sports Centre offers a range of recreational activities such as badminton, table tennis, gymnastics, and yoga. For those interested in cricket, Burwell is home to the Burwell and Exning Cricket Club, which is highly regarded in the area and regularly hosts matches and training sessions for both adults and juniors. Maybe it is time to try something new.

For fitness enthusiasts, there are several walking and cycling paths in and around the village, allowing residents to enjoy the surrounding countryside. Burwell Lode, part of the Fens’ extensive waterway system, offers scenic walks and opportunities for birdwatching. Just a short drive away, you will also find Anglesey Abbey National Trust, which is a great day out for the whole family.

Residents of Burwell can also enjoy various local clubs and societies, including gardening, photography, and history groups, each providing opportunities for social engagement and hobbies. But if you prefer to spend time alone, the village library is a quiet space for reading, research, and educational activities.

Schools
If you are moving to Newmarket with children (or hoping to have them) and looking for schools, the village is home to Burwell Village College Primary School. This school has strong links with the local community and nearby secondary schools, ensuring a smooth transition for pupils as they move through their educational journey.

There is no secondary school in the village itself. Still, Burwell lies within the catchment for both Bottisham Village College and Soham Village College secondary schools, the latter rating as outstanding by Ofsted. Additionally, the proximity to Cambridge means that some families opt for private education, with renowned institutions such as The Leys School and The Perse School being just a short commute. There are also several preschool nurseries available to choose from. All in all, the options are pretty good for those looking to settle with a family.

Eateries and Shops
There is no denying that Burwell is one of the best-served villages in Cambridgeshire when it comes to amenities, as it offers an extensive range of facilities for the whole community. Boasting three convenience stores (including a Co-op), three public houses (The Fox, Five Bells and The Anchor – all offering excellent dining options and takeaway), butcher, bakery, post office, doctor’s surgery, pharmacy, dentist, opticians, hairdressers and barber shop, estate agents, petrol station and delightful artisan coffee shop. Sorry, the list is extensive, but we were keen to highlight that most daily necessities can be met within the village itself.

For larger shopping trips, residents can travel to nearby Newmarket, which offers a broader range of shops, supermarkets, and retail outlets. Cambridge is also just a short drive away.
