Location

Stonely is a small and highly regarded conservation village situated on the edge of the popular market town of Kimbolton in north Cambridgeshire. The village enjoys a particularly attractive semi rural setting surrounded by open countryside whilst remaining conveniently positioned for access to a comprehensive range of amenities.

The neighbouring town of Kimbolton, located approximately 1 mile away, offers an excellent selection of day to day facilities including shops, cafés, public houses, restaurants, medical facilities, and recreational amenities. The town is perhaps best known for the renowned Kimbolton School, one of the region's leading independent schools, which continues to attract families from across the area.

Transport connectivity is excellent. The A14 and A1 provide convenient access to Cambridge, Huntingdon, Bedford, and the wider motorway network. Mainline rail services are available from nearby St Neots and Huntingdon stations, offering regular direct services to London King's Cross, making the area particularly attractive to commuters. The surrounding countryside provides extensive opportunities for walking, cycling, and outdoor recreation, with a network of footpaths and bridleways linking neighbouring villages and open farmland.

Educational provision is well catered for, with a range of state schooling available locally in addition to Kimbolton School. Further independent schooling options can be found within Bedford, Oundle, and Cambridge.
