Downham Market sits right next to the A10. It’s one of the county’s main routes, bypassing the town rather than taking traffic through it. It’s the link between King’s Lynn on the coast, all the way down to Greater London and the M25. King’s Lynn is 11 miles away. Cambridge is 35 miles down the A10. Peterborough is also within commuting distance. There’s a local train station too, with services to London Kings Cross taking less than 2 hours.
Downham Market has a good range of local shops, pubs, restaurants, and takeaways, in Market Square, High Street, and Bridge Street. A Tesco Superstore, Morrisons, and The Bridge Street Surgery are each just over a mile from The Willows. The Alive Downham Leisure Centre is also just over a mile from The Willows. Hillcrest Academy and Nelson Academy are the two primary schools, and for secondary education, Downham Market Academy also has a sixth form.
The River Great Ouse is the town’s natural landmark – with lovely riverside walks along its banks. The Memorial Park is just down the road, and the green space of the Willows Nature Reserve is near the river. It’s really easy to head for the north Norfolk coast from here – a treat of long sandy beaches and pretty seaside villages. 30 minutes inland, on the Norfolk-Suffolk border, the vast Thetford Forest is one big adventure.
