WHY SOHAM?

Soham is a growing town of around 12,000 people located in East Cambridgeshire between Ely and Newmarket, with easy access by road and rail to all the nearby towns and cities. Its history stretches back thousands of years, with archaeological evidence suggesting that the area has been inhabited since prehistoric times.

Since then, Soham has continued to grow, with several housing developments planned or in progress aimed at accommodating the area's increasing population. This expansion is balanced with a focus on preserving the natural beauty that makes Soham unique; initiatives aimed at boosting green spaces and enhancing the town’s infrastructure promise a bright future for both current residents and newcomers. Although Soham has grown significantly over the years, it retains a small-town atmosphere that appeals to both residents and visitors.

TRANSPORT LINKS

Soham's transport system has improved significantly in recent years, making it a convenient place to live for commuters and those seeking easy access to the surrounding area. The re-opening of Soham railway station in 2021 has been a massive boost to the town’s connectivity. The station offers regular services to Cambridge and Ely, making it ideal for those who work in the cities but prefer to live in a more rural setting…an increasingly popular trend in the past decade.

Soham also benefits from good road links, with the A142 connecting directly to Ely and Newmarket. The nearby A14 provides access to Cambridge, Ipswich, and beyond, and bus services offer regular routes to the local area if public transport is your preferred option.

SOCIAL SCENE

Today, Soham has evolved into a well-rounded community, offering a wide range of facilities and amenities, including various shops, a sports centre, a bowls club, a non-league football club, a library, a doctors’ surgery, and a drama club. For sports enthusiasts, Soham Town Rangers F.C., the town’s football club, plays in the lower tiers of English football and has a dedicated local following. The King’s Meadow community hub serves as a focal point for various local events and activities, fostering a strong sense of community.

Within the town, there are a number of annual events that bring residents together. The Soham Carnival and Heavy Horse Show, held every May, is one of the most popular events in the town’s calendar, attracting visitors from across the region. The event features traditional carnival rides, a parade, and a variety of craft stalls. Additionally, the town holds regular markets, where local traders sell everything from fresh produce to handmade goods.

The nearby towns of Newmarket and Ely provide a further range of amenities, such as shops, hotels, restaurants, and leisure facilities (including health clubs, a swimming pool and a golf club). Newmarket is famous for thoroughbred horses and boasts two separate racetracks with quality horses competing throughout the season. The racetrack also hosts regular music events throughout the summer months, which are hugely popular.

SCHOOL

If you are moving to Soham with children (or hoping to have them) and looking for schools, the area has a range of educational facilities that cater to children from nursery age through to secondary school. The main secondary school, Soham Village College, is a comprehensive school with a strong reputation for both academic achievement and extracurricular activities. In fact, it achieved a rating of Outstanding in its most recent (and previous) Ofsted inspection.

In addition to Soham Village College, the town has several primary schools, including St. Andrew’s C of E Primary School and The Weatheralls Primary School, both of which are well-regarded by the local community. Early childhood education is supported by a number of nurseries and preschools, meaning you are spoilt for choice.

EATERIES AND SHOPS

Soham offers a range of shopping facilities, catering to both daily needs and more specialist tastes. The town’s High Street is home to several independent shops and local businesses, including butchers, florists, and small grocery stores. There is also a larger co-op, Budgens and Asda supermarket, providing more extensive grocery options.

In terms of dining, Soham has a variety of eateries to suit different tastes – and there are several that we can highly recommend. For traditional British fare, pubs such as The Cherry Tree and The Fountain Inn serve up classic hearty meals. Along with several Indian restaurants, there are also a number of cafés and takeaways. You certainly are spoilt for choice.

Why Newmarket?

Newmarket, a small but thriving market town rich in history, is located just 12 miles northeast of Cambridge and is world-renowned for its deep connection to the horse racing industry. Nestled within the lush landscapes of Suffolk, this town has been a centre of equestrian activity since the reign of King James I in the early 17th century, earning it the title 'the centre of horseracing in Britain'. A little fact for the historians amongst you: the first recorded race meeting actually took place in 1622...so a few years back now.

Home to over 3,500 racehorses, more than 60 horse training stables, and two large racetracks (the Rowley Mile and the July Course), not to mention the famous Jockey Club, Newmarket hosts some of the finest horseracing in the world. The town is also home to the National Stud and the National Horseracing Museum, preserving its rich heritage for future generations to come. However, if music is more your thing, there are several popular live music events throughout the year.

Newmarket's history, combined with its modern amenities and beautiful architecture (Grade II listed buildings are dotted everywhere), make it a desirable blend of old and new.

Transport Links

The historic market town of Newmarket is located between the university city of Cambridge and Bury St Edmunds on the Suffolk/Cambridgeshire border. It has excellent access to the A14, A11 and M11, making the commute to London a breeze (...that may be an exaggeration). For those not so keen on commuting by car, the town's railway station has direct services to Cambridge, Ely, and Bury St Edmunds, with connections to London King's Cross and London Liverpool Street available via Cambridge.

For international travel, Stansted Airport is approximately 30 miles away, offering flights to numerous destinations across Europe. Whatever your reason for travel, you have a number of flexible options.

Social Scene

Newmarket has a wide range of social amenities, including hotels, public houses, restaurants, and leisure facilities; there is even a golf club for those with a passion for being outdoors on a weekend. There really is something for everyone, and we haven't even covered the social events and evening classes in the area...of which there are many.

The town has well-maintained parks, such as the Severals, which is a popular spot for families, dog walkers and joggers alike. The Newmarket Leisure Centre is also a hub for sports and fitness enthusiasts, offering a swimming pool, gym, and sports courts for the health-conscious amongst us. If you prefer arts and culture, the Kings Theatre, a small but vibrant venue, hosts a range of performances, from amateur dramatics to live music. Maybe you want to indulge in it all, and we wouldn't blame you!

Schools

If you are moving to Newmarket with children (or hoping to have them) and looking for schools, the area provides several educational options, making it an attractive location for families. The town has a mix of primary and secondary schools, both state and independent. Houldsworth Valley Primary Academy, in particular, has received extensive positive feedback for its nurturing environment and has become a popular choice among residents. There are also several independent schools in the surrounding area, offering a variety of specialised programs. Take your pick.

Eateries and Shops

Newmarket's town centre has a crazy number of eateries, public houses, and shops that cater to a variety of palates. From traditional British pubs like The White Hart to modern cafes such as Nancy's Vintage Teashop, there is an eatery for every taste. The town also has several fine dining establishments, including the award-winning The Packhorse Inn, serving contemporary British cuisine.

For those who enjoy a bit of retail therapy, the Guineas Shopping Centre is the main retail hub, featuring a range of high-street brands and independent boutiques. Whether you want a butcher, baker or candlestick maker, Newmarket has you covered. The popular local market is held on Tuesdays and Saturdays, between 9am - 3pm, and hosts a variety of different stalls, ranging from fruit and vegetables, cakes, jewellery, flowers and fine food and drink; trust us when we say we have tested every single one of them - well almost!

So, is Newmarket the place for you to lay down some roots? It seems like a fantastic choice for us! But then again, we are biased...
