Bedford is ideally situated between London, Oxford and Cambridge, allowing for quick and easy day trips through the beautiful English countryside. When booking hotels in Bedfordshire, aim to be as near to Bedford as possible. The city is lively and cosmopolitan with a rich history and heritage that can be seen in the famous Castle Mound and the Bunyan Museum, an establishment dedicated to recording the life of Bedfordshire local, John Bunyan. For lovers of nature and history, Luton's Stockwood Park, an estate housing some of the country's finest Period Gardens, several leading crafts museums and extensive golfing facilities, is certainly worth a visit. Certain areas of Stockwood Park are dedicated to demonstrating the evolution of English cultivation and gardening techniques, from the medicinal and herb gardens of the Middle Ages to the lavish and fancy 17th and 18th century gardens, inspired by the nations of the continent.

Book ahead for an afternoon tea at the Duchess's Tea Room at Woburn Abbey - it gets very busy!
