Comberton pronounced Com berton, unless youre local and were
born before the fifties, in which case its Come berton is half a
mile from the middle of the world. Well, from a tiny little stone
on the Toft road that marks the Prime Meridian. A modest claim to
fame, perhaps, but important enough that they named to local
primary school after it. Less modest is Comberton Village College
and Sixth Form, which, at the time of writing cant seem to stop
being rated Outstanding by Ofsted and provides the community with a
health and fitness club, sports facilities, and great pride.
The centre of the village is a crossroads with a duck pond, a
shop, post office, pub, doctors, dentist, butcher, and hairdresser
so its very much a village you can potter around and get your
little life bits done without having to jump in the car
Rather than devoting a whole room in your house to occasional
visitors, they can camp at the lovely touring site at Highfield
Farm and you can turn the spare room into a gym.
You can probably guess how close Meridian Golf Club is and two
villages away in Bourn you can enjoy the luxury of Cambridge
Country Club.
If youre commuting to Cambridge the west city boundary on
Barton Road is within 2.5 miles with a cycle path almost the whole
way you have to use the road for a few hundred metres in the middle
of Barton . Barton itself is a great place to go too, where you can
indulge at the shops of Burwash Manor. On a sunny afternoon, take a
3 mile walk or bike ride over the fields to the tea rooms, pubs,
and river at Grantchester, or hop on to the footpaths that head out
of the village in all directions. The National Trusts Wimpole
Estate is a few villages to the west.
On the sad occasion when you need to leave the area for more
distant destinations, you can join the M11 in either direction at
junction 12 in 2.5 miles.
