Soham is a growing town tucked between Ely and Newmarket, surrounded by the open skies and flat fields of the Cambridgeshire fens. It's got a real sense of community, a strong local identity, and a good mix of old charm and modern convenience. With a steady population, new developments on the edge of town, and a railway station that's back in action after decades, it's the kind of place where people put down roots and stay for the long haul.

The history of Soham runs deep. It was a settlement long before the Domesday Book, with Saxon and Roman links and even a Benedictine abbey that once stood where St Andrew's Church now rises. Through the medieval and agricultural eras, Soham remained a farming hub, shaped by its fenland location and the drainage schemes that made the land more productive. In more recent times, it grew steadily as a market town and now sits at around 12,000 residents, with new families continuing to move in. The reopening of Soham's railway station in 2021 marked a big moment for the town, bringing back a connection it had lost since the Beeching cuts of the 1960s.

In the town itself, you'll find a good spread of facilities. The high street has a decent mix of independent shops, cafés, and takeaways, while the local pubs and restaurants give the place a sociable feel. There's a leisure centre, library, and several schools, including Soham Village College. St Andrew's Church, with its tall tower and long history, is worth a look, and the local museum offers a glimpse into Soham's past, including its railway heritage and wartime stories. Not far off, Wicken Fen is one of the oldest National Trust nature reserves in the country—a must-visit for anyone into wildlife, walking or just a quiet afternoon outdoors. Ely's cathedral and riverside walks are only a short drive or train ride away, while Anglesey Abbey is a stunning National Trust property with gardens that change with the seasons.

Wider Cambridgeshire gives you plenty to explore. Cambridge is an obvious favourite with its college buildings, museums, parks and punts, but there's more to the county than just the city. St Ives and St Neots have riverside markets and a proper traditional feel, while Duxford's Imperial War Museum is a massive hit for history lovers. You've also got the Wimpole Estate with its working farm and Georgian mansion, and nature reserves like RSPB Fen Drayton Lakes for those who like to slow things down a bit. Whether it's history, culture or a bit of space, there's always something close by.

Getting to Soham is much easier now that the railway station is back up and running, with regular services linking to Ely and Bury St Edmunds, and onward routes into Cambridge, Norwich, Peterborough and London. By road, the A142 runs right past the town, linking to Ely, Newmarket and the A14. Local buses connect nearby villages, and if you're flying, Stansted is just over an hour's drive away, with Cambridge City Airport available for shorter regional hops. Once you're in town, most things are walkable, and cycling's easy thanks to the flat terrain.

Cambridgeshire is one of those counties that mixes old-world beauty with a quietly progressive feel. Its history is layered into every village church and field boundary, but it's also full of innovation and change. Whether you're in the city or out in the fens, there's a sense of space, calm and rhythm that defines the region. With so many historic sites, peaceful trails, and close-knit communities, it's no wonder so many people are drawn to this corner of East Anglia.
