Location

Sandy is a small market town in Bedfordshire set along the winding River Ivel and was once the home of a Roman Settlement with many artefacts now on display in the town's Council Offices. The oldest and most interesting buildings are located along the High Street and one of the most unusual buildings is the mock Tudor Town Hall. The town offers many of the day-to-day amenities such as GP and dental surgeries, cafés, restaurants and pubs and a Tesco Superstore on the edge of town. For the more active there is a variety of sports clubs, gyms and a multi-purpose sports centre and the John O'Gaunt Golf Club is nearby.
