Doddington Grange, the perfect family home in rural surroundings

If you’re looking for a new family home in the heart of Cambridgeshire, close to the cities of Peterborough and Cambridge but with Fenland rural charm, look no further than our development in the village of Doddington near March.

One of the largest parishes in England, Doddington boasts a range of amenities for the whole family. There is a post office, a few shops, a fish and chip/fast food outlet, ladies and gents’ hairdressers, a doctor’s surgery and an NHS minor injuries unit.

The village has a thriving public house, The Three Tuns, a recently refurbished pub that was established in the village in the 1840's and is steeped in history and character. The pub has a separate games room, beer garden and dining room. It offers a selection of beers, real ales and lagers. Food is served daily. It offers a welcoming family atmosphere along with the great food!

Doddington has a village hall as well as two sports fields, one with a pavilion containing changing rooms, catering facilities and a multipurpose room. Doddington has Guides, Scouts, Women’s Institute, the women’s section of the Royal British Legion, Short Mat Bowls Club, Outdoor Bowls Club, Cricket Club, Football teams, and an Under 5’s group – so there’s plenty on offer for to keep the whole family entertained – young and old.

For commuters, the nearby towns and cities of Ely, Peterborough, King's Lynn, Cambridge and Huntingdon are all within easy reach by major roads. Nearby March has its own rail station which connects with all the main routes.

Doddington is a true Fen island. Before the Fens were drained you would have needed a boat to visit friends in nearby villages. There is now a network of footpaths around the village that will allow you to explore the ancient Fenland landscape and its wildlife more closely. There’s also the RSPB nature reserve at Ouse Washes and the Welney Wildlife Centre nearby.

The Lionel Walden Primary School is a 'good' school according to its most recent Ofsted report. There are plenty of high quality secondary and further educational options in Chatteris, March, Ramsey, Whittlesey and further afield in Cambridge and Peterborough.

At Larkfleet Homes we have just launched phase two of a development of four and five-bedroom family homes called Doddington Grange on the edge of village. It is a quality new development perfectly suited to you if you are looking for a new home in a rural setting within easy reach of modern urban amenities.

Our show home is open from 10:00 to 17:00 seven days a week. Give us a call on 01354 694900 for more details.
