A breathtaking view of the Castle Mound in Bedford overlooks the river, being alongside the Swan Hotel, with the Pen and Cob outdoor eatery adjoined to the Hotel. The gentle slope up to the top of the mound is wheelchair accessible so makes it accessible by most. The history of the Castle Mound can by read and taken in at the top, enjoyable for all to learn from. The only thing missing is a wooden, fireproof castle!

A place where u can have some history information. I like to walk around because it's just next to river. Bedford is a lovely place to walk around, especially the embankment. Wish they could manage this place well rather then just wild plants n some drug activities.

Good historical location with some castle wall remaining castle was destroyed in 1224, good views worth a visit if local to bedford, very close to the river and town centre,

On the banks of the river with a lovely riverside path that goes from the park to the town. Great place to visit during a leisurely walk. Also some tempting pubs and cafes along the way. You might even see a swan. Or a swan building. And some cool rowing boats. And the castle mound is worth a look too!!

Sunrise stage at the Bedford river festival. Great acts on stage.

This is the site of the former Bedford Castle. It is free to visit and has nice views of the river.
