The newest Center Parcs village has opened up just 2 miles from Ampthill and already receiving great reviews on trip adviser, It is only moments in the car to pop into Ampthill, or by bike and a cycle way for some of it, cycle racks are on the town square.
Thursday is market day - just for the morning, and there are plenty of places to get food, either to eat in or take away. Of course the Country Market stall will be selling homebaked cakes and quiches, so something for lunch. We also have a supermarket (Waitrose), a newsagents and a chemists.
You just need to leave the park onto Steppingley Road, and turn left towards the roundabout, cross over before the roundabout to the cycle way on the other side of the road, and head straight towards the roundabout. And then cross over using the access that has been provided, turn right and head along the cycle way, and this takes you into Ampthill, turning off to the left. The park is on your left, and the centre of Ampthill just straight on.
I hope all this makes sense - you will see the road signs as well.
If you are on foot you can follow a footpath that is marked for Millbrook Church (but it is not suitable for bikes) on the left, you can go down there a little way and then turn right (not towards the church), and pass by the alpacas in a field (dead cute), and this will eventually bring you into the park. The path is a little meandering, and then you just follow straight on, crossing a field that often has cattle within the park. NB there are kissing gates,
Once you have crossed the field through to the other gate, start to head right and this will bring you back to the park car parks and the road, or of course you can enjoy the park, and wander any which way. See the link on the side for information about the park, you will be coming from Millbrook.
