Mariah Posted May 28, 2011 Share Posted May 28, 2011 Any tips where to find a peaceful good area (affordable to rent a 1/2 bedroom flat/house) with max.45 min train journey to London, but where you would be surrounded by beautiful countryside, and it wouldn't be necessary to buy a car to move around.

Frankito Posted May 30, 2011 Share Posted May 30, 2011 Lordship Lane, quiet, leafy and no need for a car as there are already loads there so you can take your pic.

Jeremy Posted June 2, 2011 Share Posted June 2, 2011 Someone was posting a similar question the other day, somebody suggested the areas around Hitchin.The problem is that anywhere that fits your requirements (close to London, good transport, nice surroundings) is bound to be desirable and therefore expensive.

Guest Posted June 2, 2011 Share Posted June 2, 2011 Knebworth - fast train about 20 mins to Finsbury Park where you can get the train for Moorgate from the same platform. Not too expensive as 2 miles from Stevenage, which isn't particularly nice but does have a Waitrose and good cycle paths. Lovely countryside.

Jeremy Posted June 2, 2011 Share Posted June 2, 2011 Not sure if Whitstable was a serious suggestion or an in-joke... but the train to/from London takes well over an hour, so doesn't fit the brief.
