Everything you need
A lively town, with plenty of green space, the River Nene and its chain of lakes flow to the south, creating a beautiful natural landscape.
To match the modern living new build homes can bring, the town centre is home to high-street chains, a shopping centre, well-known supermarkets, and the weekly Whitehorse Yard markets. Slightly out-of-town, you have access to retail parks as well – so there’s something for all the family. For education opportunities, it has a wealth of schools for all ages up to sixth form, including the highly-praised Wellingborough School.
Well connected
The A45 runs along the southern border of the town, and is a direct route to Northampton. Taking under half an hour, it also gives you access to the M1 and the East Midlands.
For train travel, the East Midlands Railway operates services to and from Wellingborough station. Perfect for commuters, there’s a direct train to London St Pancras that takes just under an hour, making the town a prime location. When you want to get away, within a two-hour drive, you’ve got the choice of London Stansted, Luton, East Midlands and Birmingham airports.
Days out for everyone
Complete with a range of lovely parks – including a free water park – out of town, you’ve got The Stanwick Lakes, Sywell Country Park, Pitsford Water Nature Reserve and Grafham Water – ideal if you love lakeside walks. In terms of facilities, the town has two leisure centres, Waendel and Redwell. The museum also offers days out for all ages, and features an indoor and outdoor cinema.
