Sawston is one of the largest villages to the near south of the city, situated about 3 miles from the city boundary and around 4 miles from Addenbrookes Hospital and the Cambridge Biomedical Campus. It also gives excellent access to the M11 (J10 3 miles).

There are good cycle routes to the mainline railway station at Whittlesford (1.5 miles) and the science parks at Babraham (2 miles) and Abington (3.5 miles).

The village has a fantastic range of local shops including a small supermarket, various restaurants and takeaways, an excellent modern health centre, primary schools and the high achieving Sawston Village College, which has a sports centre, gym and swimming pool that are open to the public, all creating very little need to leave the village for day-to-day living.
