Area Guide

Flitwick is a Bedfordshire town mentioned in the Domesday Book. Currently, it benefits from a Tesco, convenience stores, Post Office, bank, and smaller shops, along with a market every Friday – although there are plans to redevelop its retail facilities. Leisure facilities incorporate a library, skatepark, and sports centre with swimming pool, gymnasium and squash courts.

The river Flit runs through local nature reserve, Flitwick Moor. As well as being surrounded by countryside, there’s an abundance of outdoor offerings, including the 11th Century Flitwick Castle, Flitwick Wood, Manor Park, Millennium Park, and nearby Centre Parcs Woburn Forest (which there’s even a shuttle bus to).

Schooling covers three lower schools and a middle school, with an upper school positioned between the parish and neighbouring Ampthill. All have ‘Good’ Ofsted ratings. A number of nurseries are within the local area.

Flitwick station has a fast and frequent rail service (into St Pancras in as little as 41 minutes), a regular bus timetable, and is just 5 miles from both the M1 and A6. London Luton airport is a 20-minute drive away.
