Local Area

Ely is a booming Cathedral city in Cambridgeshire, England, about 14 miles north-northeast of Cambridge and about 80 miles by road from London. It has been one of the fastest growing cities in Europe in recent times and has seen high street brands, restaurants and bars move in. From an investment perspective, Ely has seen exceptional capital growth that has outstripped much of the UK. We often describe Ely as a smaller more charming version of Cambridge, where you can park for free! The City has lots to offer and provides excellent access to A10, A11, A14, M11 just a short drive away. Commuting into London is made easy with links to Kings Cross via Cambridge.
