Location

St Neots is a rapidly expanding town located on the banks of the River Great Ouse with a population of well over 30,000 residents. Adjoining and nearby settlements such as Little Paxton, increase the population figure to c. 40,000. The retail catchment is estimated to be in excess of 80,000. St Neots has the fastest rate of population growth within the County.

Benefiting from its rail links to London Kings Cross (typical journey time of 45-55 minutes), the town has seen a considerable expansion of its commerce and industry in recent years. It also enjoys excellent road communications with London and the east coast ports, being located at the intersection of the A1 trunk road and the A428/A421 Cambridge - Bedford M1 - Milton Keynes route. The opening of the A14 and A428 dual carriageways have significantly improved accessibility to the Midlands and the North West.

The town has a good range of shopping and leisure facilities with many national multiple retailers represented, including Boots, Waitrose, Fat Face, Marks & Spencer Simply Food and Waterstones. There are a range of interesting smaller retailers and St Neots also benefits from a six screen cinema (Cineworld) with numerous restaurants including Pizza Express.
