LOCATION:
Ashwell is a quintessential English parish village in north Hertfordshire, brimming with history and community spirit. Ideally located just 4 miles from Baldock, 7 miles from Royston, and 12 miles from the historic city of Cambridge, it sits on the chalk scarp along the spring line, with the village’s freshwater springs being one of the sources of the River Cam - a scenic spot enjoyed by residents and visitors alike.
The village boasts an impressive collection of well-preserved architecture, including St. Mary’s Church, dating back to the 14th century, and a local museum celebrating Ashwell’s rich heritage. Community life thrives here, with regular meetings, events, and activities, along with three welcoming pubs serving good food in a relaxed atmosphere. Everyday needs are well catered for, thanks to a doctor’s and dentist’s surgery, a primary school, pharmacy, two hairdressers, a shop, a gallery, and a delightful café.
Ashwell is also renowned for its extensive and tranquil footpath network, perfect for countryside walks, dog walking, and spotting wildlife. For the more active, the village supports a range of sports teams, societies, and clubs for all ages and interests. The well-equipped village hall is available for a variety of functions and community events.
Transport links are excellent, with Ashwell’s own railway station offering direct services to Cambridge and London. The nearby towns of Baldock and Royston provide additional rail options with fast mainline services. For drivers, the A1(M) and M11 are approximately a 20-minute journey away via the A10/A505, while both London Stansted and Luton airports can be reached in around 47 minutes.
