Got a full day PalmerSport voucher for my 30th voucher. What a fantastic day it was, from start to finish. A supreme collection of high performance cars, all with something a little bit different! And I can’t speak highly enough of the staff either. James and Kerry were fantastic team leaders, making everyone feel relaxed and right at home from minute one! Driving instructors were also brilliant, pushing me to the limits while also making me feel relaxed. Special mention in particular to James (a different one) in the BMW. Brilliant! Also certainly well fed throughout the day as well, with a great full English on arrival at 8am, a lovely lunch and afternoon tea to finish the day. If I had to be really picky, I’d say the bread was a bit dry on the AT sandwiches and the cakes were so so, but as I say, that’s nitpicking in the extreme. Just a fantastic day!

Choose from a solo fight where you take the controls under the close instruction of a qualified Jetlev-Flyer Pilot or alternatively, simply buckle in, and fly tandem with an instructor for a pure adrenalin rush!!

4. Leighton - Linslade Children's Trail
Overall Ratings

What's your Once Upon a Time? The Leighton - Linslade Children's Trail is a free public trail of 22 artworks celebrating children’s stories for little people, with big imaginations, to explore. How many can you find? Use the clues on the free map to help you search. Look out for the big paw prints on the floor. Your challenge starts at the Leighton Buzzard Library, where you can pick up your map.

Pick up a copy of the Children’s Trail at the Library (complete with pencil) or download it from the internet. My main tip is don’t just set off, read the instructions carefully! This would have helped us in the long run, as we completely missed the bit telling us that a (blue) pawprint would be situated next to each clue! And that clues marked with a blue dot on the map were sculptures or painted, and clues with a red dot on the map were words we had to find. Once we had realised that, the trail became much easier. Although, actually, the pawprint is missing from the very last clue (22). Also be aware that some of the clues are in alleyways such as Peacock Mews which are gated after business hours. And one clue is in the bandstand, so obviously you can’t gate-crash a Sunday afternoon concert! But it’s great fun for all ages and certainly gives a different insight to Leighton Buzzard. We enjoyed the Trail and thought the Town Council have done a good job in creating this.

Designed from scratch by former F1 driver Jonathan Palmer, there is nowhere else in the world like Bedford Autodrome. The venue has been purpose built for speed and space, containing four entirely distinct circuits and over 5 miles of track laid out across a 384 acre site, with vast run-off areas that provide optimum safety.

Half day driving experience is a must for all petrol heads in the area. Single seater is particularly good

Barton Springs is part of Barton Hills National Nature Reserve. It is a fine example of chalk downland and beech woodland in the north Chilterns. The whole site is open access, and there are a number of footpaths throughout making it a popular destination for walkers, families and wildlife enthusiasts. The reserve is protected due to the rare wildlife that live there such as the Pasque flower, greater pignut and field fleawort, and butterflies including chalkhill blue, marbled white and dark green fritillary. It is seasonally grazed by Dartmoor ponies, so please keep dogs under close supervision.

The title says it all, a great walk up and down the hills and the natural springs in Barton. The red kites that glide above you are breathtaking, at one time we had nine above us diving down for rabbits that were out on the hills. An area that looks great in all seasons, a regular visit is enjoyed by the whole family.
