But if you don’t want to live in London we are far enough away that its all a bit ye olde weldy and you could live in Hatfield and cycle into work every day. Or a 10 minute drive away is St Albans or Hertford.

Lord and Lady Salisbury are more then delighted to welcome you to their home, Hatfield House which is also Lara Crofts house in the film Tomb Raider.

It was also home to Queen Elizabeth I and is over 400 years old.
