About Orwell

Orwell is a lovely, traditional Cambridgeshire village about 7 miles south west of Cambridge and a similar distance north of Royston.

The pretty centre of the village carries very little through traffic and its compact size gives it a close sense of community aided by a thriving primary school, handsome dining pub, general convenience store, post office and hairdresser.

There is a large recreation ground and a Parish Council owned hillside nature reserve that is a designated Site of Special Scientific Interest.

A 15th Century Parish Church overlooks the village and there is a village hall and Methodist Church.

There are tennis and football clubs, an amateur dramatics society, singing group, gardening group and golf society.

The National Trust‘s Wimpole Hall and Home Farm are nearby.

Orwell is a most attractive village which lies to the south of Cambridge with easy access to the A1198, A10, M11 and A1.

Other facilities within the village include a general store/newsagent, post office, public house/restaurant, hairdresser, 12 century parish church and Church of England Voluntary Aided Primary School.

There is a large recreation ground and variety of clubs and societies. It also has a village green with picnic area and ‘Site of Special Scientific Interest‘ (SSSI) supported by English Nature.

The National Trust owned Wimpole Estate, which comprises a magnificent country house with 3,000 acres of park and farmland, is within about 1.5 miles.

Cambridge is just a few miles away (approx 7) and is not only world renowned for its academic achievements, but has also become a ‘high tech‘ and ‘bio tech‘ hub with the University Research and Development Laboratories, Cambridge Science Park and Addenbrooke‘s Hospital/Biomedical Campus. The city also provides a wide range of shopping and cultural facilities along with an excellent choice of schools for all ages.

For the commuter the A603 gives easy access into west Cambridge by Barton Road or on to the M11 in about 6 miles. Royston‘s mainline station gives access to Kings Cross frequently and quickly, often in under 40 minutes.

Additional Information:

Dating potentially from medieval times, it is thought that the property was converted to a residential dwelling from what would probably have been a barn for the main Lotfield farmhouse a couple of doors down. It is on the Grade II listed buildings of architectural or historic interest.

The Property was skilfully converted to create a bright and airy cottage which successfully combines the convenience of modern living with the charm and character of the original building.

Outside:

A small Path leads from the front door to a gravel driveway (shared with next door) and on to a good sized front garden which may provide an option to enclose.

Directions:

On entering the village from Fishers Lane, continue past the church and take either the first or the second turning right into Town Green Rd or Stocks Lane. Lotfield Street is a continuation of Stocks Lane and joins to Town Green Rd at the other end. Primrose Cottage (No.26) is on the left hand from Stocks Lane or right hand side if coming in from Town Green Rd and sides with the street.

Schools:

Orwell is particularly well placed for access to schools on the west and south sides of the city including St John‘s College School and King‘s College School in Grange Road and the Perse, St Faith‘s and The Ley‘s in Trumpington Road.

Transport:

A mainline railway station at nearby Royston (about 7 miles) provides fast train services for commuters for London‘s King‘s Cross in about 38 minutes. Transport Cambridge 8 miles, M11 (junction 12) 6 miles, Royston (fast train services to King‘s Cross 38 minutes) 7 miles, Stansted Airport 28 miles, (distances and time are approximate).
