Ely CB6 — The Ship of the Fens, Served by a Reliable Local Cab

Ely is one of England's most striking small cities, dominated by its magnificent Norman cathedral — visible for miles across the flat Cambridgeshire Fens. But Ely is also a practical place: it sits on the A10, just 17 miles from Cambridge, and its train station offers direct services to London Kings Cross, Peterborough, and Norwich. For residents needing airport transfers, Stansted is only 40 miles away via the A10 and M11.

Easykab, based in Beck Row, serves Ely and the wider CB6 area with fixed flat-rate private hire across the city — from the cathedral quarter and Oliver Cromwell's House, to The Maltings, Ely Market, Roswell Pits, and Babylon Gallery. We're the local cab company that answers the phone and shows up on time, every time.
