A day out at Bletchley Park, Buckinghamshire, England
Codebreaking in the English countryside

The incredible work that was undertaken by the women and men at Bletchley Park, during World War II, was invaluable to our future.
It was so secretive at Bletchley that even the families of the people that worked there were unaware of what was unfolding behind the closed doors.

How to get there
You can catch a train from London Euston direct to Bletchley, which takes 40mins, then it’s just a 5-minute walk.
Alternatively, if you are travelling by car, there is an onsite car-park, which is free of charge. Tip; if you’re using Sat-Nav, enter Sherwood Drive, Bletchley, MK3 6DS. It was so well hidden we drove straight past.

My husband and I are both really interested in visiting Bletchley Park! I actually think it’s not far from my family, so I think next time we’re there, perhaps we can squeeze it in! The work they did here was truly fascinating! #FarawayFiles
It really is worth it, it’s an incredible part of our history and amazing that all this went on and very few people knew.
We recently watched The Imitation Game and it would be so fun to see where it all happened. What a beautiful place to be holed up breaking code and such! There is actually an ENIGMA machine here in Copenhagen as our local post office/museum. Love the connection. Thanks for sharing, cheers from here. #FarawayFiles
Thanks Erin, a lot of the Imitation Game was filmed there, majority of the huts they worked in you can wander around. We really enjoyed it, although there’s a lot to take in. It’s amazing how many of the ENIGMA’s are still around.
Such a fascinating and important part of history. I saw the movie with Benedict Cumberbatch and while I was amazed at the story, I was also so sad at how poorly Alan Turing was treated. #farawayfiles
I know it was unbelievable, such a waste of an incredible life. I believe there was so much more he had to share.Bletchley is really fascinating, you could easily spend a day visiting, There was so much going on that no-one knew about.
