Yaxley is a large village and civil parish in the district of Huntingdonshire within Cambridgeshire, England, sitting on the southern edge of Peterborough and close to the northern reaches of the fenland landscape.
Historically agricultural, the village has seen steady suburban growth and now mixes commuter housing and light industry with a strong local community feel; it retains a long-established parish church, active sports and social clubs (including a non-league football side), village shops and events, and benefits from easy access to city facilities while being close to the River Nene and surrounding fen countryside.
