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.
