Location.
Swineshead is a quiet village of about 60 homes in North Bedfordshire, near to the borders with Cambridgeshire and Northamptonshire. It enjoys a delightful mix of properties, many of which are timber-framed with several dating from the C16th.
The C14th Church of St Nicholas, with its beautiful, recessed, Jurassic limestone spire is rare for remaining open to visitors throughout the day.
Surrounded by a delightful rural landscape, a short cycle ride or walk will take you to the larger village of Riseley, with its C19th pub, famed for its good food and beer, its shop and its popular school. Sharnbrook Academy and Sixth Form is a little further on, along with community sports centre, surgery and theatre, while the County town of Bedford, with its world-renowned Harpur Trust private schools and fast trains to London is just a twenty-minute drive or bus journey away.
There is a bus service four times a day through Swineshead that travels between Bedford and Kimbolton.
