Local life – The new Saxon Pool and Leisure Centre, health centre and sports clubs are also popular with the locals. As are all the wide range of local pubs, bars and restaurants.

Nice shopping – Biggleswade has a shopping centre which is home to a captivating collection of small independent shops, as well as supermarkets and a library.
