Linton & Balsham

About

Linton & Balsham are rural parishes in South Cambridgeshire, known for their historic charm and countryside setting. Linton, the larger of the two, features a mix of traditional cottages and modern housing, with a high street lined with independent shops and pubs. Balsham, a smaller village, retains a quiet, agricultural character with a medieval church and open fields. Both areas are surrounded by farmland and hedgerows, typical of the region’s landscape.

The nearby Linton Zoo adds a unique attraction, while walking trails and bridleways appeal to outdoor enthusiasts.
