Despite being home to an important airfield during the Second World War, the village of Warboys' name actually has nothing to do with conflict. It's derived from Old Norse, translating as 'beacon with bushes'. The village has plenty of amenities for walkers, including a convenience store, pubs and a bakery.

The pleasant Cambridgeshire village of Somersham has plenty of greenspaces to explore, including a nature reserve and Somersham Pocket Park. In the village, there are a number of shops, eateries and a pub. Somersham Local Nature Reserve has developed around the disused railway line from Cambridge to March and includes a lake and areas of woodland, grassland and wildflower meadows.
