Where to stay in Warden Hill
Where visitors usually base themselves, and why.
Three miles of Luton separate Warden Hill from the town centre, so a room out here trades the centre's choice for streets that run out at the Central Bedfordshire boundary. The A6 runs along the district's edge, the road link back towards Luton. Warden Hill itself offers little lodging.
Walkers aiming for Dray's Ditches or Galley Hill get the most out of a night on this edge.

About Warden Hill
What are the main landmarks in Warden Hill?
Dray's Ditches heads the list. It appears twice on the record for Warden Hill, once under each of the two entries the district keeps, while Christ Church accounts for the only other name on that short list. Galley Hill closes the eastern edge.
Both hill names belong to the ground rather than to a building, which is what a walk out here mostly offers.
What is the history of Warden Hill?
Two entries share one name. Dray's Ditches is recorded twice for Warden Hill, and that doubling is the only repetition in a record otherwise made of road names, boundary lines and one parish dedication. Christ Church supplies the dedication, and Icknield Way and Birdsfoot Lane the boundary lines.
Luton holds the rest of the account.
Where is Warden Hill?
Boundaries do the describing here: Central Bedfordshire to the north, Enderby Road and the A6 to the south, Icknield Way to the west, Galley Hill to the east.
