Bedfordshire Historic Houses
One historic house towers (metaphorically) over all others in Bedfordshire. Woburn Abbey is one of the nation's great treasure houses, and it justifiable draws a huge number of visitors every year. Luton Hoo could justifiably claim to rival Woburn, at least before it was turned into a luxury hotel. If you want to avoid the crowds of Woburn, why not opt for a visit to Wrest Park, with its formal gardens. Or see the ruins of Houghton House, thought to be the model for John Bunyan's House Beautiful.

Formal landscape gardens in the style of Versaille, created in the early 18th century as a counterpoint to the 'chateau'. Magnificent statuary, Orangery, and parterre. Wooded walks and canals.
