Reviews of Alban Retail Park
Sometimes a little tight driving round, but good selection of stores including a spot to eat, plenty of parking on a normal day and maintained well.
Good row of shops, easy parking , jolly's, best place to get my animals food from , B n M for ya bits n bobs, Dunelms for furnishings .
Retail park is good. Don't spe nd to much time shopping because they love handing out parking tickets via the anpr cameras.
The famous UK Home Bargain House. Buy what you need, leave what you don't want.
Some good shops here. Getting into the place can be a bit of a laugh as the traffic lights outside are a bit random!
Think you are limited to 3 hour parking, a few useful spots (Gym, Subway, Jolleys Pet store that sells the BIGGEST Doggo biccys I ever saw!), but a tad gloomy otherwise.
Went to Dunelm on this retail park. Limited selection of retailers and parking spots just a bit tight.
Good place
Local so good for picking up odds and ends.
Has a B&M so good for bargains, and a garden centre which is pretty sizeable.
A Jolleys if u wanna buy a pet hamster on a whim
A dunelm for an extra fun mug rack???
Or whatever else you need
And a gym which I don't care about because I'm lazy but it might be your thing :)
Affordable items and great customer service 👍🏿
Good position nicely stacked selves lots of parking space excellent enviroment
Nice for home essentials shopping, affordable prices
It is not a big one but still famous outlets are there such as B&M and Dunelm alongwith Mcdonald.
But their parking spaces are bit tight.
Free parking with a couple of shops, a gym and a subway for a sandwich. The gym appears decent. The b and m is smaller than some others. Overall okay if you need to go there.
Retail development on developed railway land. Good access and parking, if a bit busy and tight.
I actually visited Jolleys Pets here as I needed to buy some items for my dog. A very nice place to shop
Small retail park with a good selection of shops. Lots of parking. There is no link through to St. John's Retail Park which has always seemed a bit silly as I think it would benefit both retail parks. Instead you have to drive round to the other one. There is 2 places to eat on this retail park now - in Dunelm and the Subway. Worth the visit if you're looking for home products and a short day trip.
Not a bad retail park. With Dunhelm Mill and B&M plus a pet store and a gym, tanning salon and a Subway. The parking is usually adequate and is free although it can get a bit full over the holidays. Getting out used to be a problem but the traffic lights at the exit were upgraded last year and it doesn't seem so bad now.
TLDR: Couple of nice shops with free parking.
Small retail park housing a Subway, Dunelm, Jollyes (pet supplies), 24 hour gym etc.
Crowded parking area full of people with varying driving abilities and poor spatial awareness.
Nice shops and not to busy in the week
Smaller of the two Bedford stores and does not sell alcohol or chilled food unlike the other one. However, I still find most things I need when visiting this store, and is maybe the better choice to go for if you don't want to get carried away! Plenty of parking outside which is shared with other retail units units as B&M, Jollyes, Dunelm, The Gym, Subway and a tanning shop.
I frequent the B&M at this retail park because it always has what I'm looking for at a great price with polite and helpful staff. The gym is also well priced and up to high standards if that's more your thing.
Free parking with some decent shops
Big home and garden b&m but didn't really go in anywhere else.
Small retail park but a nice variety of shops and plenty of parking. The area is kept clean and the parking spaces are decently spaced unlike some places. The only off putting area of this place is the shambolic exit strategy as nobody seems to know how to use the traffic lights when leaving as the traffic is going in four directions when you pull out. On the whole would not stop me coming back here!
Three hours parking (more and you get a hefty fine), good shops, friendly staff. The subway on its corner makes a decent morning visit, before heading into the gym
I'd not been in this store for ages, so this visit reminded me what an Aladdin's cave this store is .... so many quality items under one roof. I'm definitely going back with a shopping list 🙂
Nice little coffee shop. Snacks are lovely. Staff are really friendly and helpful.
Would most defo recommend to come here and have a little break.
They even have a little section of colouring etc for the little ones to be busy while u can watch them and have your coffee.
Great deals to be had at Dunelms
Had what we wanted,a bit out of town
How an (not quite) out of town retail park should be like. Lots of parking, good stores and jolleys staff were really lovely. 3 hours limit on the parking but still good as access to London road is second away on foot.
Not very big but has a couple of good shops, my personal favourites being B&M and Dunelm (Subway is a nice touch as well!! And just around the corner is the St Johns Retail Park (Also known as Rose Walk) with a rather nice Hobbycraft, (MK42 0XE) amongst other shops as well! :-)
Helpful staff in the store and on tills. Sometimes need more on checkouts but they usually sort it quickly when it gets busy
Retail park ok, only small with limited number of shops. Parking at busy times can be an issue and you often find you have to queue to leave the site, but on the whole not a bad site.
I mostly go for Jollyes pet shop they have great staff with a good product knowledge, staff are always welcoming and helpful. The shop has a good stock for my picky cats as well as for other pets
Good shop selection can be very busy at times and made more difficult getting in and out of car park due to only having one access road on and off a main road.
Not many shops however there is a range of shops from food to gardening, pet shop, a gym, tanning, subway and a coffee shop inside Dunelm, plenty of free parking, max stay 3hrs. Also within walking distance of another retail park round the corner.
B m is one of my wife's favourite places, manage to pop In for a few things and never spend less than £70,
One lady is great and always helpful, the others can't really be bothered to help.
It's a very good place you can get what you want if they have got 😊👌
Very good parking and shops
Easy free parking and you can get a subway for lunch win win 🙂
The park has a wide range of facilities and goods for the home. Parking is available which is convenient for bulk shopping. In addition the price range of most of the products here seem to be gentle on the pocket.
B&M is always a good shop to go to for the odd bits. Also very easy to spend WAY more than expected
Great small retail park, the park has a good variety of store plus a 24hr fitness gym.
Theres a large B&M store for people looking for a bargain JOLLYS Pet shop & Dunelm Mill for great home furnishings.
Very interesting things to see and buy
Great little retail park, shame about the lack of parking and limited parking time. What good is a 3hr stay if you want to use the gym, have lunch and go shopping?
It has :a gym, B&M, a pet store and a couple others. It's good.
Good shop range, everything from quality food (m&s) to hardware b&q, no independent shops, parking is ample, unless its busy, then you may have a job on your hands, may have to walk more than a few steps, worth a journey, if you want to make a day of it, maybe m.k is better,
Love Dunelm so go quite a bit. Can usually park ok, but very often a queue to get out even though there are traffic lights. Another exit road would be good.
Classic mid-size retail Park.
Always clean car park, nice wide parking spaces
Good one.
This was a trip to Dunelm to purchase some new sheets. Looking in the bargain bucket we found a king size 700 thread for £14.00 an absolute brilliant price. Also on this small retail park is a gym, pet store and B&M
Has good shopping and parking facilities all
around. Although this Retail Park isn't that large, it has some really good stores and eateries on its premises or within a walking distance of a few minutes
Nice little shopping area. B & M is always great to shop in and having the gym here is really helpful for me to get to as live so close.
Alban Retail Park is a small area of shops & parking just off London Rd, Bedford. Shops include Dunelm, B&M, Jollyes (pet store), Gym, Subway & a generous parking area. The only places to eat are Dunelm & Subway. Dunelm has a public toilet located on 1st floor to the far right, at the very back. The cafe is opposite at the far right, 1st floor front of store. Variety of shops suiting all wallets. Parking is free & all shops have disabled parking bays & wheelchair access. Dunelm & B&M are both large stores with a full range of products & I recommend both. B&M also has 2-3 small fridges at the tills for cold drinks. Dunelm's 'coffee cafe' has young children's 'packed lunch's (sandwich, drink & treat' & a range of coffee's & tea plus cold drinks & lovely selection of toasties, panini's etc with a very tempting array of cakes, pastries etc - not cheap but reasonably priced to keep you going. The only real minus point is the winding access road which has its own traffic signal filter in & out plus 2 pedestrian crossings. It does get busy & backed up with traffic in & out occasionally so I recommend you take care leaving the park at the crossroads as you're also competing with traffic filtered from a side direction so please take caution. Otherwise this is a great little retail park to keep you busy for a morning. Enjoy.
The Range. ques about 15mins trolley wiped over with antibacterial spray and hand sanitiser available arrows for floor for one way system no waiting at checkout shelves full
Plenty of spaces, could do with some more parent spaces. Good choice of shops
Very good shop
Good amount of parking and good selection of shops and sandwich shop with toilet
Sorry I didn't realise it was a retail park.
I just call it Sainsbury's.
It's a good place to shop with plenty of parking.
Homebargains loads better
Handy for me but an awful junction to get into especially if you are going straight across at the lights. I feel like I am entering the gauntlet everytime. Prefer MK.
Good shopping facilities but could be cleaner everywhere.
Very good shopping complex with food options. Large Sports Direct outlet along with Argos, Boots. Clarks besides many more. Good parking.
B&M is the reason you need to go!!! I love b&m!!! Also all the shops there are great!
Good range of shops. Parking is good but road infrastructure around the park needs improving as can take a while to get in and out
Near to me, not bad. Just a small retail park with subways
Small retail park plenty of free parking for 3 hours.
Great selection of stores, great place to visit
Different set of shops than other Bedford retail parks including a Gym. Good amount of parking places.
My favourite store everything under one roof
Ĺocation is very good just outside of town centre have more the 8 stores and gym free parking like the new Subway they opened about 8 months ago
My first visit didn't know what to expect so was glad the shops i wanted were in the same area.
Nice fishery, pleasantly managed with toilets and an eatery where you can get tea coffee, burgers and sandwiches.
Small retail park located on the outskirts of the town, there's some good shops and a gym that's worth visiting and ample parking.
Good Parking area and 3 large shops and a food Outlet nothing spectacular but you would only go there for certain shops.
This place always looks a bit scruffy, but the shops are OK.
Has everything here. Great shpot hai
A good place to go to buy things for the house or family pets.
Love the shops here and easy to get to as well.
Small selection of useful stores, a gym and a tanning shop. Close proximity to Screwfix.
Love the helpful Jollies, just can't wait for the to sort out the temporary traffic lights to get in the car park
Not as busy as I expected, lots of empty spaces to park the car right where we wanted to be
Biggest issue is driving out during rush hours. If you driving out in direction of A6 it can take over 20 minutes to drive from far end of car park up to A6
Very busy time of year... Easter holidays, but still managed to get in and out quickly. Ample parking.
BM store is great place to shop. Reasonably priced.
Very nice little shopping center with two of my fav stores
