Facilities

New facilities have been designed to complement and enhance the existing village of Waterbeach, with new cycle, bus and walking routes to make getting around easy.

From the bustle of a lively eatery, or a quieter, more intimate dining experience. Shopping and amenities will focus on local, independent vendors, including farmers’ markets and vibrant, captivating cultural events.

Water sports on the lake, rugby and football pitches alongside healthy routes for walking, jogging, cycling and horse riding will provide something for everyone. The existing refurbished sports hall will offer activities from day one, then as the development moves forward, will be replaced with purpose-built facilities and all-new swimming pool.
