Bedfordshire is one of England's smallest counties but it has some of the loveliest scenery such as the Chiltern Hills and the Ouse valley. Whipsnade Wild Animal Park and Woburn Abbey are internationally famous but for the most part the county's charms are in the small-scale details of villages off the beaten track and unexpected buildings in the larger towns. The hands of progress have been cruel to Bedfordshire, and motorways have made it a county that one passes through, rather than lingers in. This guide suggests many reasons why the visitor should spend a little time within an hour's drive of London, discovering delights which might easily be overlooked.
