Dunstable East

LU5 4 / LU6 1 / LU6 3

Family-friendly

The residential area stretching east from the town centre toward the A5. Mostly post-war housing, a lot of 1950s and 60s semis with decent-sized gardens. Beecroft is the main area people would recognise. There are local schools and it is reasonably close to the Luton guided busway stops. It is a settled, quiet part of town where families have lived for generations. Nothing flashy but solid enough.
