Potton is a small historic town with plenty of amenities located around the central Market Square. There are doctors, dentist, library, two schools within walking distance, public houses serving food, restaurant and takeaways, supermarket, convenience stores and local traders, along with a welcoming and active community. Nearby Sandy and Biggleswade both have fast rail services with London Kings Cross 45 minutes away, and the A1, M11 and A14 are within easy reach. Potton is on the borders of Cambridgeshire making it ideal for commuters but retaining the village feeling, yet only 20 miles from the historic and vibrant city of Cambridge.
