Important factors in my choice
(1) Unimportant – (4) Very important
Personal recommendation
Is the best place for study, because you stay at the university, is a very quiet place, is not the best university for having fun.
Is very isolated from the city and the towns, you will need a car or to take a taxi if you want to go to the town after 5 h in the afternoon.

Final comments
Luton airport is the closest and cheapest to Cranfield University, flying from Spain.
The university is very isolated and quiet, but this can not be a problem if you try to have new friends and meet people, I think this is the only place where you will have friends from all the parts of the world, I have really done it.

you learn to distinguish different accents and some slang. Although local people tend to be quite ignorant, there are also lots of nice and f riendly ones. Although I'd suggest to be the initiator of the discussion in order to meet new people.

If returning, I would choose: in the city center
Why?
The campus is too far from cities. I would have been at Imperial College in the center of London.

Personal comments
As people are here just for one year, there is no groups like in Centrale.
The flats are good and there are lots of services.
