Welcome to Hertfordshire, your home away from home less than an hour from London. Here in Herts you’ll find rolling countryside, luxury accommodation, adrenaline-fueled adventures, family-friendly breaks and the perfect year-round retreat.  

Discover historic days out and fun family activities in Welwyn Hatfield, treat yourself to foodie finds and thrill-seeking adventure in Dacorum, expect countryside breaks and active days out in Stevenage, or treat yourself to a luxury shopping staycation in Watford. Whichever Hertfordshire destination you choose, you’ll be in for a relaxing getaway.

While families will love hitting the slopes at The Snow Centre, exploring Hatfield Park or tempting tricky teens away from the screen at Aquaparc Fairlands Valley, couples can enjoy a relaxing break at Hotel Cromwell, indulging at The Florist, have a historic day out at Shaw’s Corner, or gin tasting at Puddingstone Distillery. All this and more awaits in Hertfordshire. Take a look at some of our top breaks ideas and start planning your very own home away from home staycation.

What’s more, Hertfordshire couldn’t be easier to get to, with train links direct from London in as a little as twenty minutes, and easy access to the M25 and M1, making it the perfect destination for that weekend break.
