Village feel

Heath and Reach is a village about two miles north of Leighton Buzzard along the Woburn road. It has a pub, a village hall, and a small green but no shop. The housing is a mix of older cottages and some 20th century infill. Stockgrove Country Park and Rushmere Park are nearby, which is good for dog walks and families at weekends. You need a car for everything and most people drive into Leighton Buzzard for the train and the shops. It is quiet and rural without being remote.
