My phone was flat and I was £2 short of cash but they were kind enough to let me have a coffee anyway. Lovely people

Bean in Stony is a lovely cafe with a very good menu. Lovely courtyard with a few cycle stands down the alley. Not open on Sunday

Encircled by water, with the River Great Ouse on one side and the Millrace on the other, Millfield is a relatively small area of floodplain that connects to the Ouse Valley Park. The parkland can be accessed by the leisure routes coming off Ousebank Way and Willow Lane, or from Tombs Meadow.

The Stony Stratford Nature Reserve is a beautiful nugget of countryside with cleared islands and renovated bird hides connected by footpaths. The nature reserve offers nesting grounds and thriving wetland habitats for wildfowl and waders such as Kingfishers. Make sure to take advantage of the picturesque lake with its dipping platform, known for its vibrant dragonflies and damselflies.

Good coffee, cakes and tasty breakfasts. Good value and you support people with learning disabilities develop skills as they work in the shop

A beautiful part of the wider Ouse Valley Park, Stony Stratford Nature Reserve is a great place to see breeding and over-wintering birds, as well as many dragonfly species. Created in 1979 from the gravel workings used in the building of the nearby A5, the reserve comprises five lakes and 57 acres (23 ha) of wet meadow. It is owned and operated by the Parks Trust. Two hides allow you to spot various bird species, depending on the time of year. Terns, oystercatchers and lapwings nest on the islands between March and June. It’s a good place to see a number of raptors, including kestrels, sparrow-hawks, buzzards and red kites. It is not uncommon to spot ospreys on autumn passage.

Great little independent coffee shop in Stony Stratford - it’s got a well in the middle!
