Location

The property is located in the centre of the highly sought-after village of Tewin, just up from the village green and a short walk from the excellent village shop. The village is a thriving local community which includes a church, village hall, Pre-School, Tewin Cowper C of E Primary, two pubs, a cricket pitch, tennis club and bowls club (for more information of local activities go to www.tewinvillage.co.uk). The location is beautifully rural and yet is also very well positioned for local rail and road links being around a five minute drive from Welwyn North, Welwyn Garden City and Hertford North stations with their regular services to Kings Cross (26 minutes from WGC on fast train) and Moorgate (36 minutes from Hertford). The A1, A414 and A10 are also between five and ten minutes drive away, so the house is ideal for people who want to live a rural lifestyle but still be close to "civilisation". The property sits between the historic county town of Hertford and Welwyn Garden City with it's excellent shopping including the Howard Centre, John Lewis department store, Waitrose and Sainsburys. There are excellent schools at all levels in the area, including the Tewin Cowper C of E Primary school in the village and Sherrardswood School in Digswell, so the location is perfect for growing families. The property is surrounded by beautiful Hertfordshire countryside including the picturesque Mimram River so it is ideal for nature lovers and keen walkers and cyclists.
