The village is home to a small number of residents and has a peaceful and tranquil atmosphere. Ledburn is a popular destination for those who enjoy walking and cycling, with many scenic routes to explore.

One of the main attractions in Ledburn is the Grand Union Canal, which runs through the village. The canal is a popular spot for boating and fishing, and there are many picturesque spots along its banks to enjoy a picnic or a leisurely stroll.
