    My first visit in over 25 years to the town.

    My first visit in over 25 years to the town. It was to work on the Chelmsford Beer Festival, held annually in Admirals Park https://cbcf.camra.org.uk/viewnode.php?id=178936 , so my exploration of the town itself was limited. I noticed a lot of fast food outlets, which was a change, along with a ring road that seems to cut the centre off. There had been a lot of re-building .... I will be back, to explore further, if only to explore some of the recommended pubs https://www1.camra.org.uk/pubs/place/chelmsford-3588?sort=nearest

    Chelmsford has good shops and restaurants. When we travel down by train we have easy access around places using the bus service. Train and bus stations or taxis are easy to get to. One of our favorite places to eat was the indian restaurant in Moulsham street.

    The park which the apartment looks onto is lovely place to walk around. The shops are very convenient. The buses stop outside the apartment...so great for travel. Train station not far away either too. Regarding restaurants there are plenty to choose from.

    Chelmsford is a lovely, friendly city with a great atmosphere. Shopping is a dream here and the old buildings in it give it character and charm. It is also clean and tidy. Can't wait to go back. Public transport is very good.

    We found the property to be on a nice road and in a great location for easily getting to Chelmsford & Braintree and the A12 / A120. The house is very cosy whilst at the same time giving my family plenty of space to spread out. Lovely modern kitchen. Good sized garden would be nice to use in the summer. The owners are very friendly and only too happy to help (even on Xmas Eve!).

    The New London Life is definitely the place to stay in Chelmsford. Very centrally located, next to a beautiful park, opposite Waterstones, M&S, and many other shops. I totally enjoyed my stay, and really hope to return before too soon. Thank you for making my stay so great!
