Meet over-40s singles across Bedford
Sitting on the Great Ouse with its handsome embankment and easygoing market-town feel, Bedford is a comfortable, friendly place to call home. It's also home to plenty of single people in their forties, fifties and sixties who'd love a bit more company in their week.
Once you're past a certain age, the everyday chances to meet someone new tend to dry up, and that's nobody's fault, it's just how life goes. Online dating gently puts you back in the way of like-minded local people.
We're the couple behind the site, and we met online before setting it up in 2008. Our promise is a warm, honest space where you can take things at whatever pace feels right.
Where to meet in Bedford
A few easy, low-pressure places to enjoy a first date.
A walk along the Embankment — Bedford's riverside Embankment is one of the prettiest in the country and makes for a relaxed, scenic first meet by the Great Ouse.
A coffee in town — A friendly independent cafe in the town centre keeps a first date simple, warm and easy to leave if the timing isn't right.
A stroll through the park — One of Bedford's green spaces gives you room to wander and chat without any of the awkwardness of sitting face to face.
A country pub supper — A traditional Bedfordshire pub with good food is a cosy, unhurried setting to really get to know one another.
