Swavesey itself has a diverse community and is popular with
families, due to the successful Primary School and Outstanding
Ofsted rated Village College. There is a convenience store with
Post Office and a thatched village shop situated in an historic
market square, as well as various churches, a coffee shop, butchers
and farm shop and a public house serving a wide range of real ales.
On the green sits an attractive pavilion, used by the community.
Swavesey is also fortunate to have the wonderful RSPB nature
reserve at Fen Drayton lakes leading to miles of walks along the
river and a stop for the guided bus. With the completion of the
expansion to the A14, residents now benefit from better flowing
traffic, cycle paths and additional local byroads. The village also
has a stop for the guided bus, which travels through the nature
reserve to St Ives and Cambridge city centre and Addenbrookes.
Parallel to the track is a cycle path which is popular for runners,
cyclists and walkers.
