Take control of your business listing

Once you’ve claimed your listing, you’ll be able to keep your information accurate and up to date.

You can:

• Update your business description.

• Upload photographs.
• Include your contact details.
• Add your website and social media links.

Having accurate information helps local residents and visitors find exactly what they’re looking for.

Reach local people and visitors

Visit Bedford isn’t just designed for tourists.

Our aim is to become the place people visit whenever they’re looking for somewhere to eat, somewhere to stay, a family day out, local shopping or trusted businesses and services.

As Bedford continues to grow and welcomes increasing numbers of visitors over the coming years, we’re committed to making sure local businesses are easy to discover.

Built to support Bedford

Visit Bedford has been created with one goal in mind: supporting Bedford and the businesses that make our town special.

Rather than charging businesses simply to appear in our directory, we want to create a platform where everyone has the opportunity to be found.

As the website grows, we’ll continue introducing optional premium features for businesses that want additional visibility, but a free listing will always be available.
