Over sits on the edge of the Fens, about ten miles northwest of Cambridge, where the low-lying farmland meets the southern banks of the River Great Ouse. Historically, its position on the "high ground" above the floodplains dictated its linear layout, resulting in a village of long, winding streets lined with a mix of thatched cottages and modern developments. The landscape is defined by its wide horizons and proximity to the Ouse Washes; the nearby RSPB Fen Drayton Lakes offers a vast network of trails and waterways that are a significant local fixture. Life in the village tends to center around the community-owned pub, the many sports clubs using the expansive recreation ground, and the primary school. While it retains a quiet, rural feel, the village is practically connected to the city via the Guided Busway in neighboring Swavesey, making the flat, open geography surprisingly accessible.
