Take fifteen: homebuilder highlights things to do at Milton Keynes development

David Wilson Homes is encouraging residents to explore the amenities nearby to its Woburn Downs development in Milton Keynes.
Located on Watling Street, Woburn Downs is located within easy reach of the M1, A5 and the A421. Commuters can access trains to London via Bletchley, Milton Keynes Central or Leighton Buzzard railway stations.
With the summer in full swing, now could be the ideal time for new residents to explore Milton Keynes and the wide variety of amenities that can be reached within a 15 minute walk, cycle, and drive.
Walk:
Just a five minute walk away from the development is Hunters Farm Shop, an organic free range shop that offers a range of fresh goods.
The farm shop is a great chance for members of the community at Woburn Downs to use fresh produce from around the local area.
A 14 minute walk away is Shenley Church End Cricket Club, an ideal venue for those who are looking to get into the sport with young children, or those who fancy a stroll to the club on a weekend afternoon to watch a game.
