Linton sits on the south-eastern edge of South Cambridgeshire in Cambridgeshire, England, a short drive from Cambridge. The village clusters along the valley of the River Granta and the busy A1307 corridor, giving a mix of riverside walks, rolling chalk countryside and easy commuter links into the city.
It has a recognisably historic core with a medieval parish church and a High Street of cottages and Georgian houses, while newer developments sit alongside small independent shops, pubs and local services. Linton combines a commuter economy with a strong village community spirit, informal clubs and countryside leisure activities, making it popular with families and those seeking a rural feel not far from the amenities of Cambridge.
