However, this mediaeval city offers everything you could want for 21st century living, with useful amenities including supermarkets, GP and dental surgeries, a selection of banks and a post office. Pubs and restaurants are also in abundance along the city's pretty streets including the 15th century inn The Lamb Inn. Just a 35 minute drive away is the bustling city of Cambridge with its world famous university and Ely Cathedral colleges, fascinating history and internationally acclaimed Science Park making this diverse and exciting city easily reachable for work, leisure or both.

Older children are catered for at Ely College, with Bishop Laney Sixth Form taking students up until the age of 19 both just a 9 minute walk away.

The development is 8 minutes' drive from Ely Railway Station, linking you to Cambridge (16 minutes), Norwich (54 minutes) and London King's Cross (66 minutes) amongst other destinations.
