The Village
The rural village of Yelden is steeped in history and surrounded by farmland. Situated approximately 15 miles North of Bedford and 8 miles West of Kimbolton, also 3 miles to the A6, the village has appeared in an episode of ‘Escape to the Country’. It has its own primary school and is in the Sharnbrook catchment area with a school bus provided, along with a bus to nearby Kimbolton School. There is a lively social life and active Village Hall with good play facilities and numerous weekly activities and a C12th Parish Church where John Bunyan is said to have conducted a Christmas Day service in 1659. The popularity of the village is further enhanced by the ease of access to main line railway stations at Bedford, St. Neots, Huntingdon and Wellingborough.
The newly-opened Rushden Lakes development is approx. 6 miles away and boasts many High Street and Designer names as well as smaller shops, cafes and restaurants, multi-screen cinema, leisure complex, boating lake and charming nature walks.
