Location
Barrowby, nestled just 2 miles west of Grantham, offers the perfect blend of picturesque village life and modern convenience-ideal for home buyers seeking community, comfort, and connectivity.
Commuting Made Easy
Road links: Situated on the A52, Barrowby provides swift access to Grantham and beyond. A1 is just a short drive away, making it straightforward to reach Nottingham, Leicester, and into London.
By train: Grantham Station lies only 2miles east and has frequent services on the East Coast Main Line, including regular direct trains to London King's Cross in just over one hour -perfect for commuters.
Schools & Education
Barrowby C of E Primary School caters to ages 4-11 with an Outstanding Ofsted rating, praised for "strong leadership" and a nurturing ethos.
A term time pre school at the Sports Pavilion supports younger ones from age 2.
For secondary education, parents can choose from high-performing schools in Grantham, including:
Kesteven & Grantham Girls' School (Outstanding grammar)
The King's School (boys' grammar since 1329)
Walton Academy and West Grantham C of E Academy rated Good.
Other primaries like Denton and Gonerby Hill Foot also hold Outstanding and Good ratings.
Amenities & Village Life
Village essentials include a café ("Dougie's"), Co-op store, church, sports pavilion, allotments, and the friendly White Swan pub.
Balancing tradition and modernity, the village features historic stone cottages and newer estates along High Road and Low Road.
The GradeI listed All Saints Church dating to the 13th-14th centuries provides architectural charm.
There's growing investment, too: Plans are underway for a new community centre on Low Road to serve the expanding village population.
Location
Clubs, Activities & Outdoor Pursuits
Sports thrive here-with junior and senior football teams, cricket, and the modern Pavilion on Lowfield.
Social groups include wi, Bridge Club, toddler and mother baby meet-ups, ante natal, yoga, and even dancing classes.
Scouting supported by 1st Barrowby Scouts and local churches host women's and men's groups.
The annual Gala and Beer Festival on the village green, with stalls, rides, and tug of war, is a communal highlight.
Explore farmland and countryside via scenic footpaths and cycling routes that surround the village.
Beyond the Village
Just a few minutes into Grantham, enjoy:
Dysart & Wyndham Parks with play areas, paddling pools, tennis, and more.
Meres Leisure Centre-indoor pool, gym, classes.
Guildhall Arts Centre, the town library, museum, and wider shopping & dining choices.
Belton House (National Trust) lies a stone's throw away-perfect for family outings.
Why Barrowby Stands Out
A village-rooted community with modern amenities and expanding facilities such as a brand-new community centre.
Top-tier schooling combined with expanded pre-school care.
Excellent commuting options via road and rail.
A dynamic mix of sports, hobby clubs and social events in an idyllic rural setting.
Access to both countryside adventures and Grantham's full leisure offering, all within easy reach.
