Shelford

CB22 3 / CB22 5

PoshVillage feelFamily-friendly

Great Shelford is the posh one in this group. Large detached houses on generous plots, well-kept gardens, and a noticeably affluent feel. It has its own station on the Cambridge to London line, which is a genuine advantage, and the village centre has a few shops, a deli, and a couple of good pubs. The primary school is popular. Little Shelford next door is smaller and even quieter. The whole area benefits from being close enough to cycle into Cambridge, which a lot of people do. Prices reflect all of this and it is one of the more expensive villages in South Cambs.
