In the outskirts of London lies a little village called Chorleywood. This area is nestled between Rickmansworth and Amersham, and is a popular town for people looking to commute to central London and to retire in. This year, The Sunday Times labelled Chorleywood as being one of the best places to live throughout the UK, as Chorleywood boasts large woodland areas and parks and is close to London while still retaining a small-town charm.

Chorleywood holds some of the most beautiful walks in Hertfordshire as it is home to many stunning woods and attractive parks. These are perfect places to go for a walk in the spring and admire the bluebells, or to have a picnic at in the summer.

Chorleywood is also the perfect place for commuters who wish to live close to London but not have to live in central London. This village sits on the Metropolitan line and connects Chorleywood to Baker Street in 40 minutes, making it perfect for travelling to and from the city every day.

So, if you are looking for a village with small-town charm but also close to the city, then Chorleywood is the place for you.
