Reviews of St John's Retail Park

B. K.

With a Halfords, Homesense, Curry's, Hobbycraft, Bensons For Beds and a Wren kitchen showroom, the St John's Retail Park is the place to go for maintaining your vehicles and making a house a home. 🏡 🚗

B. Q.

Popped into lidls,got everything I needed

K. R.

A range of shops with parking

J. G.

I love how St John's Retail Park has been renewed and made fresh with some of my favourite shops!

H. W.

Free parking check for busy times as it can get very congested. No public toilets and shops do not have any toilets only eating places like McDonald's burgerking.

A. M.

We flipped a coin and it came down tails So off to this retail park we did go We grabbed a coffee and two buns, then made our way into the supermarket We bought another coffee and another two buns We then went back home Later on that day we had a coffee and two buns Then we went to bed It was quite a day Will we return? Does the sun light up?

B. G. 2.

About 10 to 15 minutes walk from town, the shops are fab..a good variety and spaced out. I wish the drivers would respect the pedestrian crossings more.

L. D.

Great place. Got my headlight bulb quickly and fitted within 5 mins. Top notch.

G. C.

Great, love Home Bargins, so glad Bedford has finally got one, such a amazing shop

s. c.

Some good shops there with good parking.

R. K.

Nice place, huge parking, lots of shops, but it only has one Costa and no other options for food or drinks.

C. B.

Nice selection of shops and easy to park up.

G. C.

Some good services but a a little difficult to access of Rope Walk.

P. S.

in very good locacion and olways plenty space and for me (driving truck)😁

j. D.

Got everything we needed in all the shops we went it. All fairly quiet.

S. A.

Parking is good. Has Lidl, halfords home bargains plus more.

T. S.

Lots of different shops, a Costa for quick coffee, and a lovely snack van near argos. This place has a lot to offer

A. E.

A wide ranging amount of shops, from tech, to home D.I.Y. and even a wine shop. The only things that let's this place down are the parking on busy days, and getting in and out via one entrance from a busy road.

A. M.

Had a nightmare with the government bike voucher scheme. Total waste of time claiming it. Oh well, live and learn.

I. S.

Great variety of out of town shopping with easy parking and useful opening hours

p. c.

Very good. Parking shops good variety

V. V.

Good place usually for D I Y but expensive for lit if stuff no staff around most of the time but when we do see one they are always great help

s. m.

Great variety of products for your home and competitive prices, friendly staff, long opening hours!!

S. W.

We often go here it has a great combination of shops I like shopping with everything close and it appeals to others too as it can get busy.

T. A.

Small retail park within walking distance of Bedford town, offering the usual DIY related stores with a Currys and Halfords thrown in. Decent amount of free parking available

N. K. S.

Good range of shopping facilities. Could do with a couple more eateries. It only holds a Costa for any one looking for a refreshment.

I. S.

The second retail park in Bedford is located on the outskirts of the town centre, there is plenty of free parking and a decent selection of shopping outlets.

K. K.

Been here many times usually to go to Home Base , You will find tools for basic diy

B. H.

Nice retail outlet but desperately needs a department store to replace Mothercare such as Zara or H&M.

S. D.

Very large Halfords, should have everything one needs.

A. M.

Costa! Plus a good variety of shops from motoring and DIY through electronics and electricals to crafts and hobbies. Plenty of free parking.

J. W.

Very good when you are up-cycling furniture as my friend used the craft/Hobbie shop

C. C.

Asked for advice for stereo and had to book an appointment, which was then cancelled 15 mins before it was due.

A.

Good area to do a bit of shopping for home furniture and electronics.

C. F.

The estate has a few retail units ranging from computers right through to Halfords. Decent Costa Coffee unit and within walking distance of Bedford town center

C. G.

Halfords as good as ever. Had what I wanted and a friendly member of staff asked if they could help. Couldn't have had a better experience 👍👍

S. M.

Shops are good, would be nice if they filled the bloody potholes.

D. H.

Plenty of big names to suit all needs, we are regular attendees at Halfords, Hobby Craft and PCWorld. Easy and plentiful parking

C. T.

Fairly small retail park hoping someone will takes over empty units soon as could do with few more shops

K. W.

Few amount of shops if you want carpet or wine. Decent Costa though if you need to wet your whistle.

G.

.fab customer service from the guy who fitted my wiper blades He is a credit to your store

S. P.

We enjoyed looking around Home Bargains, it was well laid out.

F.

Like any other Halfords plenty of parking around as well

R. S.

Useful place but staff not really interested

I. B. M. B. P.

I personally did not like the lay out of the shops, you come off the main road ( which is easy to miss the turning due to bushes) on to another roundabout where you can turn left or right shops are on both sides with car parking in front of shops. Their is a Costa coffee shop which gets very busy.

A. R.

Ok for essentials

G. B.

Really good place to nip in and look round been there few times and dunno if good thing but never very busy whilst I there

c. g.

Went to home bargains there cheaper than the rest on basic goods

P. W.

Everything's in one place one park up and everything's to hand even a drive through Costa lack of staff in HALFORDS the only problem, no to take responsibility people dumping goods and walking out,,, Ngs

J. G.

This store was open when many others were closed i managed to buy what i needed & have it fitted.

B. C.

This is typical small retail park. A few interesting shops. coffee place and normally easy parking.

M. M.

Parking is a bit tight & not enough disabled spots you can only enter from the retail park side of road so if you come in from the Bedford town end you have to go back in yourself at a very busy roundabout about.

D. G.

Good variety of shops plenty of spaces to park and a costa coffee bonus

P. C.

Service a bit limited from last visit

E. L.

Always great service, sometimes have to wait a bit as they can be very busy but when you are dealt the service is always great

s. r.

It's fine if you need cheap food but expensive bikes.

a. r.

It has everything you need,with plenty of free parking, great place

H. W.

Friendly happy to help staff nothing to much

T. K.

Got my bathroom tiles friendly staff good price

B. A.

Very busy .no public toilets only in costa

M. S.

Good social distancing, very few staff in Halford.... No one wanting to serve customers.... Not customer friendly..

S.

Good selection of shops and plenty of free parking.

c. k. c.

Good.

J. A.

Good size/range of outlets but be aware of parking at peak times. You'll end up disappointed and be returning home disappointed.

J. H.

Halfords. Easy parking.Quick light bulb change. Very efficient, pleasant young man, value for money

G. G.

Great choice of shops if you don't want to go into town.

w. t.

Not the best but not a bad retail park for small town. All u need is there. My best is Hobby Craft n Home Sense. Big free parking area. Bus stop is just there. Sad thing there’s no public toilets. Easy to walk around. Latest addition in this retail park is Lidl & Home Bargain which are a year old now.

T. W.

Good array of shops including a Lidl with plenty of parking

a. p.

Only use halfords in the retail park and never had a issue there

r. s.

Handy location plenty of parking

D. L.

Easy parking, could do with a Clarke's or sports direct to balance up all the clothing shops.

M. S.

Good place to shop with a big Tkmaxx and Sports Direct. A public toilet is missing though.

V. M.

Nice parking , good shops

J. H.

I drove in into it to get to see the computer shop, large with plenty of parking space. Love it

K. R.

Great at one end. But with maplin and Homebase now closed they need to attract some new businesses.

L.

Few good shops, just not any places to grab a bite.

S. B.

Good selection of shops with a drive through costa

R. S.

This retail park is more appealing now that there are some stores that sell food - Home Bargains & Lidl. The downside is that it gets very busy. Car park surface has many pot holes and could do be some maintenance. Parking is free and there are plenty of disabled spaces.

T. B.

Busy retail park B & M, Jolleys, Dunelm all well patronised. The gym ensures its always busy

K. L.

Collected our order in speedy time.

T. B.

Popular retail park with various large shops including Currys, Halfords, Carpetright and Hobby Craft.

S. P.

Always somewhere to park. Nice parade of shops without the hassle of going into the town centre

R. T.

Helpful friendly staff. Assisted in choosing correct battery for car. Picked it off shelf and offered to carry battery to car. I cycled to the shop but it was a considerate thought. One slight improvement might be to offer home fitting.

A. J. (.

Got what I needed. They matched the blown brake light bulb for my car at Halfords. Love the discounts at home bargains. Lidl is good too. There is also a drive-through costa

A. R.

Shoping was well organised in lidle and home bargains

K. R.

A good variety of shops but finding a parking place is a fight at weekends

H. M.

Car park was not well placed for someone with a disability. Not many shops apart from the normal type you would find in a retail park

J. L.

The retail park is varied in choices. Will definitely go there again.

J. P.

It's very good and it's free parking for up to two hours so read the sign

v. l. t.

Nice

M. D.

Good local retail park with Homebase, Currys & Maplins at the top of my list. Plenty of parking.

S. S.

Halfords, Lidlington, home bargains

d. r.

I am very pleased with my perchase & The staff were very helpfull see you guys again many thanks.

C. R.

Wrens very helpful, Currys less so

V. l.

Always clean and tidy inside the store and today enough staff available if you needed something fitting ... I didn't on this occasion but would've been lucky if I did!

E. B. (.

It's a small retail park, a bit short of variety, nothing special unless you specifically need something from one of the resident retailers.

T. W.

Could do with a little more variety in shops and more for children to busy them selves

S. B.

Just a drive thru coffee at Costa. So good

H. S.

Great range of shops, nothing like a mooch thru hobbycraft then a latte at costa

A. T.

Free parking very busy which is a good sign off quality outlets

M. P. H.

Quick and easy shopping but avoid 12 noon to 3pm as it is very busy.

A. C.

Parking was great service in lidl was not friendly

P.

Halfords. Great service! Super pleased with the new dbl din! 👌

B. M.

Lots of shops, beware of parking cameras

p. f.

The road access is often very busy to this otherwise very useful retail area.

G. D.

Went to buy a turntable. Limited selection. Of the ones I liked, one was on the shelf, but not in stock. The other in a box they wouldn't open, so came way unfulfilled.

G. M.

Very busy, limited family parking sapaces, good selection of shops.

M. B.

Good place to shop, plenty of outlets. Plenty of free parking.

B. K.

This is right in the middle of town, hence a bit congested in terms of parking and surrounding traffic. Homebase is now closed as well.

D. P.

I only went to Hobbycraft for Swann Morton 10a scalpel blades. Only place in town.

A. D. P.

That's is very good area, have nice and interesting shops!

N. B.

Love the variety of shops. Plus a Costa for my coffee needs :-)

G. M.

Shops as expected but not the most attractive location

S. C.

Busy retail park, just out of the town. Range of shops & Costa Coffee shop now too. Otherwise, just another retail park.

M. P.

Halfords and other shops here well organized!

R. K.

Nice place good assortment of shops

R. H.

A reasonable mix of shops but BEWARE!! Only 2hrs30mins parking. So if you want to browse in Home Sense, Hobbycraft or other shops, then have coffee or lunch in Costa and finish off in Lidls, don't hang around or you'll get a hefty fine. This is no leisurely day out. Also, no return within 2 hours. I used to go here alot but not since I got that hefty fine .

G. E.

Good range of shops and plenty of free parking.

M. E.

Halfords is great

l. b. s.

St John's shopping retail park in Bedford has lost some of the Stores on the site due to closer and relocation so not as appealing as a shopping destination

I. T.

Good for emergency purchases but way to expensive of you have time buy online.

S. s.

Good range of large retail stores and a Costa drink in and drive through

R. W.

Good selection of shops good parking

S. M.

Well worth a look re vamped tesco café 100% better

T.

Easy to park and shop.

J. B.

Some great shops plus free parking and a Costa.

S. S.

Went to Homesence very good for all household stuff. Love it ..and tkmax

S. P.

Bought easy start from here. Staff seem friendly & when I went in not too many people, so didn’t feel over crowded. Doesn’t have loads of parking because the site is shared with other stores nearby, but usually it’s enough. Clean store.

N. L.

Good selection of outlets. Downside is poor access and parking

A. H.

Very good place to shop, loads of shops

M. D. N.

Parking is usually full, but a good variety of shops

A. K.

I like that there is always somewhere to park at St John's and now you can get a cup of coffee too.

M. P.

Much better since getting home bargains

P. D.

Good number of shops

D. T.

Typical retail park nothing to write hime about

K. R.

Is ok but Mothercare didn't have what we wanted. Look ok otherwise.

S. R.

Average place mainly got what you need... Terrible parking though

K. K.

Decent range of shops and products at a fair price

J. H.

There's a wide range of quality shops here. Home Sense and Hobbycraft are personal favourites. Sadly, the park itself is designed for cars and pedestrians were an after thought. While it has improved over the years with designated crossings, the traffic makes walking between shops unpleasant.

R. M.

Good place for shopping, gets very busy

M. B.

Change shop's but still worth a visit

H. B.

Easy to park, tidy and good array of shops

C. S.

Good parking and good retail service

Has a range of DIY items all under 1 roof.

M. B.

Went to Halfords, good amount of parking

good place but need more shops

V. S.

Got a good selection of stores.. visit regularly 😊

C. S.

Good for shopping halfords and stores .

D. F.

Good variety of shops with lots of parking.

J. W.

Generally plenty of parking spaces, each access to all the shops. Only thing that makes it difficult is that the Costa drive through gets busy it’s a pain just to get in (especially when you don’t want a coffee) bit of a design floor in traffic management tbh

s. a.

I wish there was a proper fast food shop for a quick bite.

S. J.

Reasonable selection off stores, though parking can be a problem

G. S.

Great staff very helpful very knowledgeable

D. Y.

A few Crack heads outside shops asking for money.

R. R.

Free parking

s. s.

Same as any other reatale park Halfords Currys pcworld

M. B.

We only went to Costa for coffee on passing. Otherwise there isn't a lot to interest me

D. R.

Halford great service staff very helpfull great love it

M. A.

Nice selection of bigger stores. Plus a Costa!

R. B.

Everything you need for the car and more

s. d.

Big and airy, on two floors with bicycles and accessories upstairs. There is a convenient lift for those who prefer to not take a run at the stairs. There are not that many staff around but the one that I collared was friendly, helpful and knowledgeable. I needed new headlight bulbs and my dustbin lid sized hands were a joke trying to get into three inch hole that contained the bulbs. My Halfords Hero had them replaced in less than five minutes. ( although not for free ). So I would recommend Bedford Halfords for its service and competitive prices.

A. P.

A couple of stores here I go to. Could do with public conveniences though.

P. M.

A good mall to buy things and spend time.

R. S.

Not alot here but for specific things it's great

c. D.

Currys really helpful and home sense wonderful as always

A. G.

Great retail experience to shop at.

d. p.

Had everything I needed and very very friendly staff anf very helpful

B. M. O.

Excellent parking lot

L. G.

A good range of shops but now there's a supermarket there too, the car park gets quite busy. It was better before LIDL opened up-a different choice of store would have been better as it was hard enough to get out of the retail park before but with this extra traffic, it can be a nightmare

J. T.

I only come down to look around in B&M and go to Jollyes for bird seed.

P. B.

Great range of shops and convenient parking

J. M.

Varied selection of shops. Plenty of parking.

A. J.

The gym,b&m,dunelm...Etc...

E. J.

My husband to to get thing for his car. Very busy.

Good range of shops . Loads of parking

J. S.

Good shops .more needed though .

J. C.

I get the bits I need from here and I can go to Tesco if I need ìf you to.

A. '.

A little under staffed at times but when available they were very helpful and helped with my queries everytime. Great customer service.

M. E.

Was able to park ok but the layout is not that easy to drive around as it is a long thin retail park do I can see if it was busy some drivers getting confused. Lots different shops here and I found it easy enough to get in take a look and out again but it was not a busy time of day.

O. T.

Great!! The new Home Bargains is amazing!!

M. M.

Nice place for to shop but parking is a nightmare.

S. J.

Great choice of stores plenty of parking

z.

Easy to find parking 🅿 and it's free also

C. L.

Ok

R. s.

Good retail park ideal to buy your carpets from

C. T.

With stores closing it needs the landlord to act or risk it becoming a ghost town

m. C.

Not a good shopping experience

R. T.

Loads of stores I use and all in one place

B. N.

Not very large mostly attracted by the Costa coffee

J. P.

Well placed and a good selection of shops

J. B.

It is what is good for electical items / crafting and home

E. H.

My favourite store is here - Hobbycraft

M. K.

OK not much wrong with this place... costa, hobbycraft , lidi currys and other's... however more shopping means more time need especially with walking problems... last time we were there i was having a really bad walking day so we took things slowly and after shopping i needed a a sit-down, so we went for a costa. Nice ...got chatting and time went quickly ...left after a good day... then a few days later we got the PARKING TICKET 🎟 We had been 9 minutes over the parking time... Great...nice day finding bargains ruined by £60 fine 🙂 So we will now be short for the month... Really annoying that parking is that strict i mean 3 hours is OK and parking for hours or all day in a retail park is wrong but an extra 9 minits costing £100 or £60 if paid on time is just wrong...FOR 9 MINUTS OVER... WTH (think about it....that could mean kids and pets will have to go without food, arguing and even domestic violence for some...)... For us its annoying 😒 and they won't be getting a re visit for a while, as that's taken a months spair spending money... Sorry rant over 🙂 Apart from that its ok ! Just don't outstay your welcome...

J. R.

If you come from South to north, You need to turn back from the roundabout and take the second left.

Not enough good shops at this retail park

p. p.

Small retail park with good selection of retailers

P. D.

Free parking and few good shops

M. C.

Plenty of parking and despite the slight faff to get in and out it's still quicker than most other retail parks in the area. Occupancy levels are high with only one unit standing empty where the Maplin shop used to be. Shops include Aldi, Halfords, Curry's and Hobbycraft among others. There is also a drive through Costa which also has seating available if you prefer that.

Z. A.

located on the one way system. School hours traffic is horrendous.

B. E.

Didn't what I was looking for

Went to shop at Lidles, good priced. Then coffee at costa

J. F.

A small retail park which can be difficult to get out of the car park when heavy traffic.

C. J.

Home bargains good store

R. H.

Parking a nightmare but halfords was good

A. B.

Plenty of spaces, had what we needed.

Could do with more parking on site

L. C.

Great hobby shop and free parking

r. d.

Loved visiting Maplin, so long Maplin

J. J. (.

Good selection of shops to choose from.

K. R. J. W.

It's good but verry few public access toilets. Plus, I couldn't find any outside seating area, if you need to take a break or have a moment to yourself. Apart from that, it's tidy, well managed & is thriving with decent shops + I'm glad that they're in Bedford boosting the locall economy.

S. W.

Nice store and staff

J. G.

No stress for parking you car

P. G.

Good selection of shops

R. A.

Good for certain things ie maplin

K. H.

Well laid out with a drive through costa

H. L.

Has most things but watch the prices

N. K.

Could do with better access as you have to go extra distance and another roundabout to take u turn good have both lidl and home bargains together

H. C.

Easy Bathrooms had a great range on display and lots of choices

M. W.

Does what it's supposed to do, it's a retail park no more no less.

D. B.

The area is under tier 4 restrictions now, so only click & collect available at the shops on the retail park, plus drive through for coffee. Expect queuing into the retail park and for coffee. Some stores have set up click & collect parking bays where they can bring your orders out to you and put it straight in the boot.

T. L.

Love the shops and all the ones I went into had fantastic staff

r.

It was easy to park and easy to find the shops.

R. H.

Went to Currys PC World and used the drive-through service. All was very efficient. Would have been helpful if they'd closed my boot after putting the product in there! Otherwise, all good.

B. D.

Great store let down by unfriendly and unhelpful staff. They are at least consistent.... Never available and always look like they can't be bothered. 🥴

S. P.

Great parts here and willing to help but there service is a rip off really. Fitting a light buld can cost you the same as the bulb itself so doubling the cost, be aware. 7-10

T. W.

Exactly what I needed for the man at home today clean my car. What more could ask for?

S. J.

Good range of stores in easy to reach location...Good amount of parking spaces

M. R.

Shame the staff always find something else to do rather than communicate to customers. Approached 3 for help. Ignored or just about ran in opposite direction.

N. 5.

Very good service. Cheap prices.

A. S.

It's OK I suppose but the Currys is a bit of a let down, especially upstairs in white goods with what looks like a good quantity of items actually turning out to be disappointingly mundane.

j. k.

Visiting regularly since it's opened. Waitng for non essential shops to open for full shopping experience. For a new shop Lidl- toilet has been broken since it opened so not happy about it

S. F.

Not a bad little retail park but a big pain to get in as it's on a one way system and if you miss the entrance you gave to travel all the way to next roundabout and double back on yourself

P. R.

Called into Home Bargains, very nice store, a vast stock that covers most everyday items at good prices. VERY CLEAN store with wide aisles

B. M.

Reasonably good parking, quite a few useful shops for the sort of things you find on a retail park. Can get busy but unlikely to be heaving just yet.

M. B.

Excellent service, had a dash cam fitted. The staff and end result were 1st class.

S. M.

Good collection of shops,.. Home bargains, Lidl, Halford and a couple of others

B. B.

Good products with easy return...

O. B.

Nice little retail park

m. b.

As far as retail parks go its ok, the only draw back is the way you queue for Costa, it backs up the whole entrance to the park

c. m.

Product I needed was easy to find and the electronic pad to identify the part was quick and simple to use. No queue at the till and no wait to have it fitted which was done efficiently. Can't fault it.

J. B.

The young lady in the shop was extremely helpful..

P. D.

Not enough staff. Prices high. Needed a simple switch, cost me £6. Ebay/amazon sell 5 for 3 quid!

S. F.

Polite friendly staff who were very helpful thanks..... Got the tools I needed at a good price.

P. B.

Went for a product that the website suggested was in stock but it wasn't the case. A member of staff did check in the store room but didn't have what I was looking for. Stock levels seemed low so they are probably in the middle of a seasonal change over.

S. K.

I've been here several times to buy dash cams and the team have always been helpful, no fuss and always look out for you with the best discounts for you. My NextBase dash cam was on point too, thanks guys.

B.

Used them a few times for fitting light bulbs and windscreen wipers for my cars, reasonably priced and plenty of parking

A. B.

Fairly limited number of retail outlets not a place to window shop. Easy to park though even at weekends. Costa coffee in the retail park if you want a drink / bite to eat

R. E.

Not as many 'useful' shops for me personally anymore, however there is a great Halfords who offer wonderful services. There's a Hobbycraft, carpet place, Homebase, homesense. This retail park has improved popularity in general due to the Costa coffee shop & drive through. Free parking, big place. Would recommend.

T. C.

Many great shops in one place,easy parking for great access to all of them

J. W.

Has quite a lot of items prices are ok but massively understaffed.

J. M.

Seemed to be fairly busy, but not too bad. Still fairly easy to park and no long queues to pay.

G. H.

I'm impressed, there is anything you want here, Halfords were super helpful, fitted a nice new battery to my work van.

N. F.

Came to Halfords. shops ok but the entry / exit can be a right pain at peak times. people also race around the car park so be careful!

S. E.

I drove there, parked without any issue, shopped (well I tried to but Curry's didn't have my item) and then left.

P. C.

Halfords and Costa in the same place. I love it. I know Halfords get a bad rep vs local independent bike shops, but they have their place and I'm happy to use them. Also, they've been the only place that could supply parts on short notice on several occasions.

P. P.

Has a decent selection of retailers including Halfords and few others such as homesense hone bargains and tapi

D.

Plenty of parking with local shops

o. v.

Plenty of parking,supermarket and a pretty good store that sells nearly everything next to it

S. 1.

So often pumped my bike there for free, changed my tire after it got cut, and often came for my mother's and father's cars. Always liked visits there.

r. w.

Always helpful staff when I visit Halfords and will order whatever you need if it's not in stock.

T. D.

The only problem with this retail par is they have stuck another coffee outlet in the car park which has taken nearly a third of the spaces up for there parking only, Bedford doesn't really need this type of thing anymore, typical council allowing things like this. I normally try and avoid going there now unless I really have to.

R. M.

Anything you need really,whether it’s just a coffee and cake in Costa or art bits from hobbycraft.

S. G.

Has a good selection of shops and ample parking.

K. P.

Great stores for everyones pocket. Home sense. Home bargains, Hobbycraft. There's a Halfords and Currys for the Men !!!

N. S.

Although, I like going there because of number of different stores at one place but hate their parking spaces. They are so narrow if someone park their car on both sides, it is very hard to come out and especially if you been there with a kid.

W. M.

The retail park has gotten a lot better, and is way more varied than it used to be. It's also within walking distance of the town centre, so you can include it in a normal town visit.

A. A.

Good little retail park

J. D.

Lots of stores (I went for Homebase) not knowing the area it was a bit confusing finding the entrance road in a busy Friday rush hour but I'd put Homebase into G maps sat nav and it found it accurately. Friendly staff too at HB.

C. w.

Now there is a good shop parking is crazy only to get worse when the new shop opens well done planning dept

P. F.

Good retail park

A. L.

Nice range of stores Currys, Halfords, Hoobycraft, Homesense, Majestic wines, Tapi carpets, Carpet right & Costa, Homebase closing but Lidl coming in its place. Could do something in the old Maplin store.

D. O.

Good place to come. Lots of different shops here.

S.

Excellent service and the staff are very knowledgeable about the products they sell

D. B.

Good range of shops (now have a Costa coffee also) parking ok to the right hand side as you enter, little bit tight to the left, worth a visit, Halfords being my favourite.

K. C. B.

Great parking. It's a shame that most of the shops here have shut, so most of the retail park is now empty units. Hope some more retailers come in soon and change that.

L. V.

Good selection of shops. Parking system on the Halford side is a bit rubbish.

B.

A small retail park with free parking & a number of decent stores. There is a coffee shop & fast food outlet too. Bedford town centre is 15 mins walk away.

M. H.

Homesense - Great place to shop. Huge variety, good makes. Felt safe.

Y. T.

Just food shopping but I do like this Lidl shop it is so well set out with good quality fittibgs and nice staff will go again

e. d.

Homesense, halfords are brilliant stores there. Slso good Costa drive through

l. b.

Lots of parking nice store selection nearby coffee shop with toilets

s. c. a.

Good if it is not weekend as the parking is too busy, Place to go if you need something for the spouse bike, wine and crafts, oh and nice coffee :)

P. S.

Typical small scale retail park with most of the usual brands. Ample parking but trying to figure out where the entrance is needs a bit of thought - especially when heading away from town.

d. r.

Absoluty brilliant i pick up my grand son bike all asembled pure magic. From halford staff were great.

F. W.

I go there for Hobbycraft and Homesense, the staff in both stores are very helpful and friend.u

C. S.

Went there for a light bulb. I end up with bulb fitted and air freshner for my car. Very good service.

P. P. (.

Good selection of homeware, craft, automotive, and tech shops.
