Luton Holiday Packages

Holidays To Luton

If you picture terraced Victorian homes and landscaped royal gardens when England comes to mind, you’re picturing Luton holidays.

Downtown Luton is one of the UK’s biggest melting pots, with tons of diverse dining and entertainment options, from countryside retreats to wild football matches. Plus, you can easily expand your horizons, with all of London’s attractions just a short train ride away.

Things to Do in Luton

Wotif’s Luton car hire options are key for exploring all this London suburb has to offer. Head 10 km west to explore Dusnstable Downs. This is England as most people picture it: Fluffy sheep grazing on rolling green hills, fields of wildflowers and a cosy cafe. Close to home, Stockwood Discovery Centre has formal gardens, an award-winning Mossman carriage display and permanent works by Scottish artist Ian Hamilton Finlay.

To the east lies another fun trip: Shaw's Corner is the restored villa of George Bernard Shaw. The award-winning Irish playwright hilariously said, “I often quote myself. It adds spice to my conversation”. See more of Shaw’s famous lines in action with live readings in the garden, then browse thousands of books in his library. Top it all off with a look at his Nobel Prize, and your Luton holiday will be just brilliant.

Shopping, Dining & Nightlife

You’ll be glad our Luton deals leave you with plenty of cash, because you’ve got a lot of shopping to do. The Mall (yes, that’s its name) can take care of all your brand-name needs, while the southern end of High Town Road will have you stocked with arts and crafts. From antiques to custom hats (you know you need a top hat), this is the best place to find a souvenir that announces without a doubt you’ve been to Britain.

George Shaw also said “There is no love sincerer than the love of food”—and we have to agree. Luton holiday packages near Town Hall Square will put you closest to the best cuisine in town. Enjoy a fancy steakhouse one night, tapas the next and Indian or Thai on the third. The options in downtown Luton are endless and delicious. And don’t worry, pub grub abounds. You’ll have plenty of bangers and mash, shepherd’s pie and meat stews to wash down with that ale.

Speaking of pubs—a crawl through them is practically a national pastime in Britain. With more than 300 taverns in town, it’s easy to befriend some locals and get in on the action. Looking for a little more culture? You’ll find performance venues and independent cinemas near the mall in downtown, or visit the art galleries along High Town Road. And if you want a high-octane evening (or several), the capital is just a 30-minute train ride away. Check out our London holidays and complete your South England tour.
