Milton Keynes Holiday Packages

Holidays To Milton Keynes

Milton Keynes, England, is equal parts countryside retreat and buzzing cultural hub, from the bustling city centre to the stately mansions on the city’s outskirts.

At just a 30-minute train ride from London, you can have it all with Milton Keynes holiday packages: big-city attractions at your doorstep, but small-town charm in all the right places.

Things to Do in Milton Keynes

Decode the secret language of the UK at Bletchley Park, an estate that was home base for Britain's codebreakers during World War II. These days, it’s a popular museum and star of film and television—not too shabby! Tour the mansion for a glimpse of WWII-era life and learn about the strange enigma of Alan Turing, statistical genius and eccentric resident.

Go even further back in time at Milton Keynes Museum, where you can play parlour games (puff billiards, anyone?) and practice your arithmetic in a Victorian schoolhouse. Be sure to visit the haberdasher on the re-creation of a 19th century High Street. (Hint: That’s a tailor.) Unless your boss wants a tailcoat, though, this isn’t the place to do your shopping!

It may seem like nothing to moo about, but make sure you stop and take a snap with the Concrete Cows, an icon of any Milton Keynes holiday. The three heifers and three calves have led a surprisingly eventful life, having been kidnapped and held for ransom and “clothed” in various outfits. Rent a car in Milton Keynes and you can get from codebreaking to cows faster than you can say “Blimey”!

Shopping, Dining & Nightlife

Wotif’s car hire options have another benefit too: Plenty of trunk space! You’re sure to need it (and maybe an empty suitcase too) once you discover all the shopping options available on Milton Keynes holidays. Hit up the megamalls downtown for air-conditioned bliss and brand names, plus art galleries and more for unique souvenirs. Prefer to travel through Europe without even leaving town? There are rotating Italian, German and French markets, too—just ask a friendly local.

This midsize city offers plenty of opportunities to chow down. In the city centre you’ll find modern dining options like Italian ristorantes and Asian fusion. The Theatre District has a diverse mix from French to Indian for the ideal pre- or post-show nosh. And no matter where you book one of our Milton Keynes packages, the town’s 300-plus taverns mean classic pub grub is always available.

You don’t even need a London holiday for a thriving theatre scene (although you should definitely check out our packages, since you probably have a layover there). Milton Keynes Theatre stages some of the West End’s most popular productions nightly. The city also has an orchestra, casino and many live music venues, plus the National Bowl, an amphitheatre that’s home to festivals like the enormous Electric Daisy Carnival in July.
