Great Staughton is a small village and civil parish in Huntingdonshire, Cambridgeshire, sitting close to the county boundary with Bedfordshire and within easy reach of the market towns of St Neots and Kimbolton. The surrounding countryside is largely agricultural and the village benefits from proximity to the large reservoir at Grafham Water, popular for watersports and walks, while commuters routinely travel into Cambridge and neighbouring towns for work.
There is a strong sense of local history and community here: a medieval parish church and several listed buildings give the place a historic feel, and village life revolves around a village hall, pub and occasional fetes and clubs. Economically the parish remains rooted in farming, with a mix of long-standing local families and newer residents attracted by rural living and good transport links.
