| Events in Colmworth | 10 Places to Stay

Colmworth is a pretty village surrounded by attractive countryside in the heart of historical Bedfordshire, home to 369 people. The 15th Century church is dedicated to St Denis and uncovers impressive architecture and Medieval glass. Nearby Bushmead Priory is a rare find dating back to the 12th Century, there's ancient wall paintings that reverses time in an instant. Artists will reach for another brush as they capture the attractive half timber framed 15th Century Market House of Moot Hall, home to an interesting Museum which showcases what life was really like during the 17th Century. Paxton Pits maybe one temptation too many for those seeking birds, insects, wild flowers, and Otters, or for an unforgettable experience into the steamy rainforest it has to be Bedford Butterfly Park, or Wild Britain which is set within Hay Meadows, time it right and carpets of wild flowers unfold, bravehearts can see the creepy crawlies, or perhaps the colourful butterflies that roam free against the sound of waterfalls will grant all wishes. St Neots Museum has an arresting tale to tell, housed in the old Police Station and Magistrates Court near the banks of the River Ouse, or for a thrill and adrenaline rush Santa Pod is noisy, exciting, and home to European Drag Racing.
