About Dunstable
Introducing Dunstable
15/06/09
Dunstable at Work
Dunstable is situated some 25 miles to the north-west of London, with excellent access to the heart of the national motorway network. With the M1 running close by and the M25 being less than 20 miles away, over three quarters of the UK mainland population can be reached within a same day return journey.

Dunstable Town Guide
Dunstable’s Town Centre displays many fine historic buildings. Indeed, many modern looking shops have an internal structure dating from the earliest days of the Priory.

Environs
Dunstable is contained by its countryside within a natural gap in the northern Chiltern Hills. To the east you will find Blows Downs, acquired on behalf of the public by the Wildlife Trust, with funding from Dunstable Town Council and the National Lottery. To the west are Dunstable Downs, with ancient history and modern pastimes, providing another large open public area with breathtaking views. Miles of green lanes lead to Sewell, the prehistoric camp at Maidenbower, and the earthworks at Totternhoe Knolls. Other areas of the town are well served by marked rights of way such as Dog Kennel Walk, which is a favourite route from the town centre to nearby Houghton Regis.
