Milton Ernest is a pleasant Bedfordshire village with strong associations with the Second World War. The United States Eighth Air Force's support command headquarters was in Milton Ernest Hall, which is today a nursing home and is Grade I-listed. There is some splendid walking in the surrounding countryside's pastures and little pockets of woodland. Harrold-Odell Country park is not too far away, with its scenic lakes and vibrant water meadows.

Sharnbrook is a typically pretty North Bedfordshire village, with its older buildings built from the region's archetypal oolitic limestone. Set on the banks of the River Great Ouse, it is surrounded by pleasant trails in lovely countryside. It is within walking distance of the beautiful Harrold-Odell Country Park and its two gorgeous lakes. Also worth exploring are the pockets of woodland that surround the village and the Felmersham Gravel Pits, which boasts a rich diversity of wetland and grassland.
