We lived in Ely Close. Really enjoyed our time there but once I had my daughter (born in Bedford) we moved closer to family in Cambridgeshire. I have very fond memories of my time in Flitwick and area, I was married at Ampthill Register Office and had my wedding reception at Flitwick Manor.

We need the good and the ugly:)

We had a look and we liked what we saw, but what is it like to live there??

Bearing in mind that we have moved to canada and dont want to go back to the UK. MK isnt as bad as people make out. You could look at living in Leighton Buzzard, an easy commute to London, reasoble priced house and schools are OK. Also there are very nice villages around Aylesbury. The town itself has some nice new estates so its not all bad.
