Chelmsford Central Park

Many of the halls, mansions, and manor houses surrounding Chelmsford in the nearby countryside have been transformed into guesthouses and hotels to offer you a quintessential rural English experience. With Chelmsford and a number of quaint villages within arms reach, you get the best of both city and country.

London, England’s legendary capital city, is an easy 35-minute train ride away. Not only is there so much to see and do here, but there is also so many different kinds of areas to stay from the refined Boroughs of Kensington and Chelsea to the edgy streets of Shoreditch.

Alternatively, swap the city for the beach by staying in Southend-on-Sea, a traditional seaside resort town on England’s Southeast Coast. Enjoy lazy beach days, coastal walks, and much more between your trips into Chelmsford for some city slicking.
