Location
With its close-knit community feel and easy access to both central London and Hertfordshire's
many glorious green spaces, St Albans offers that rarest of luxuries - balance. Though just
minutes from the city centre and train station, outdoor types can just as quickly revel in the
choice of leafy parks, long walks and challenging golf courses.
Meanwhile, St Albans' crowning glory, Verulamium Park, offers over 100 acres of picturesque
gardens, wildlife, lakes, sports facilities and tennis courts.
For the finer things in life, take afternoon tea in the perfectly manicured surrounds of
Sopwell House, or escape for a secluded picnic for two by the river. In fact, whatever you're
into, St Albans offers boundless possibilities.
Nestled in the buzzing heart of St Albans, with your home at Grange Court you couldn't
be better placed to enjoy its many pleasures. Just moments from your door, discover great
brunch spots and cosy pubs; lively bars and fine dining; favourite restaurant chains and
unique family-run cafés; independent boutiques and can't-live-without
high street shops.
Yet there's much more than shopping and indulgence on offer. If culture's your thing,
catch a movie at The Odyssey, an Art Deco gem, a play at the endearing Abbey Theatre,
or check out a gig at the renowned Alban Arena or one of the other more quirky venues
dotted around the city. Or because sometimes it's all about the simple pleasures in life,
stroll through the pretty, atmospheric streets and drink in the laid-back St Albans vibe.
