About Great Barford
Great Barford is a rural village where you'll find genuinely low crime, good air quality and two well-regarded primary schools. It's a strong choice if you're a family after space and a quieter pace of life. Houses here cost more than nearby villages, with detached homes averaging £586,000. Local amenities are limited to a couple of pubs, cafés and post offices, but Bedford is a short drive away for shops, secondary schools and train links. You'll need a car — there's not much local public transport — but if you drive, the combination of safety, decent schools and countryside living makes this a solid option.
