Bedfordshire in the east of England, is well connected to the rest of the UK and accessible from London in around an hour and half. Bedfordshire is home to rolling countryside with the Downs, Chiltern Hills in the south of the county, Marston Vale where the local clay has been used for brick making and Greensand Ridge where a 40 mile trail runs from Leighton Buzzard to Gamlingay. The Great Ouse river and Grand Union canal wind their way through the county and provide relaxing locations for river trips and water sports such as canoeing and riverside hostelries.

The industry heritage of the Welsh Valleys gives way to the vibrant cities of Swansea and Cardiff. Relax and enjoy the stunning coast line as Glamorgan reaches the sea at The Mumbles and Gower Peninsula.
County overview
The much fought over Borders is an area of rolling hills in the west to the gentle valleys and picturesque coastline in the east. Sir Walter Scott chose to build his beloved house, Abbotsford here. Exploring this landscape of castles, abbeys and stately homes, you can't help but imagine yourself transported back to the world of Scott's sweeping romantic epics filled with daring outlaws and damsels in distress.
