Exploring Northampton
For something a little unusual, Northampton is home to England's only house designed by the famous Scottish artist Charles Rennie Mackintosh, 78 Derngate, and it's well worth a visit to admire the beautifully stylish interiors.
Breaking the code at Bletchley Park
Bletchley Park, where Britain's code-breakers solved the Enigma code during the Second World War, is now a major heritage attraction and well worth the 40 minute drive. Visit the huts where the codebreakers spent many hours, and find out how Bletchley was the birthplace of computers by heading to The National Museum of Computing on the same site.
