LOCATION
The Barns Hotel is situated on a beautiful riverside, with its pleasantly landscaped gardens. The historic market town of Bedford built upon the banks of the River Great Ouse is centrally located to London, Oxford and Cambridge. Bedford owes its origins and continued development to the river and remains one of the most important and attractive features of the town. Through the centuries strong characters have emerged to lead and shape the town such as John Bunyan the 17th century writer and preacher author of The Pilgrims Progress. Sir William Harpur, John Howard the prison reformer and Archbishop Trevor Huddleston who campaigned against the apartheid. The town was granted a charter in 1166 and hosts a general market on Wednesdays and Saturdays, a gourmet market on Thursdays, a flower and plant market on Fridays and not forgetting the farmers market on the second Thursday in the month. Today Bedford is a lively cosmopolitan town ideally situated for history, leisure, the arts, culture and quiet unspoilt countryside. With a rich history and heritage, which is celebrated in a programme of festivals and events, such as the Bedford River Festival, the International Kite Festival and the Victorian Christmas Fair.

"A nice place to spend a night"
If you have to visit Bedford then this establishment is sufficiently far away not to really count as a Bedford Hotel. The reception was welcoming, even at the ridiculous hour of my arrival....and the room was clean and comfortable.
The food and the restaurant were most acceptable...I found myself drawn in there by the excellent smell of food and I was not disappointed. Very good food at a very good price.
Well done to all the staff at the hotel for my pleasant stay...I have already been back and it was just as good the second time around. Highly recommended.

"Nice Hotel"
The Barns Corus hotel Bedford is a five minute car/taxi journey into town. It is a decent hotel with good restaurant and two bar areas. There are good conference facilities and the rooms are also of an acceptable, clean and comfortable standard. |
