Location Covington is a small, quiet village and civil parish in the Huntingdonshire district of Cambridgeshire, approximately 10 miles west of Huntingdon and 3 miles north-west of Kimbolton.

It sits right on the county’s western edge: The Three Shire Stone, marking the point where the old boundaries of Huntingdonshire, Bedfordshire and Northamptonshire meet, lies half a mile west of the village.

The village has deep roots. Its name is thought to come from Old English meaning “the high pasture enclosures, ” and it was recorded in the Domesday Book in the Hundred of Leightonstone.

For centuries the Dukes of Manchester held the main share of the manorial rights, and it only became part of Cambridgeshire in 1974, having previously belonged to Huntingdonshire.

Today Covington is a peaceful rural settlement of cottages and farms, with its own conservation area.

Surrounded by rolling countryside and running through the village is the renowned three shires way - there are plenty of walks, rides and cycle routes to explore.

Shops and cafes can be found in the nearby village of Kimbolton, and a choice of wonderful country pubs can be found in the surrounding villages.

The nearby towns of Huntingdon and Wellingborough offer regular trains into London Kings Cross, and the A14, A45 and A6 road links are also easily accessible.
