Interesting town with a lot of history to it.

Interesting town with a lot of history to it. A plethora of eateries, shops galore, all within a walkable distance in the centre. Driving around town can be a bit challenging because of the road layout, avoid the rush hour if you can. Excellent train connection into London.

Chelmsford is a very pretty place .

Chelmsford is a very pretty place . The people are so friendly but unfortunately I cannot walk long distances so I could not get to see it all . But we'll worth a visit. We had breakfast in the Range shop which was quite nice. Plenty of places to eat. ...there is street food also like paella...beautiful arrangements of home made breads The shops are so many you would need a day to see it all. There are a row of markets do there is plenty to see.

Chelmsford is an amazing location that offers a huge array of options on a trip! The area has a vast variety of restaurants and shopping to suit all tastes and pockets!! The area itself has fabulous views and alot of activities to attend ie water sports/ice skating/ Everyman cinema with couch & food service! Street food vendors & markets all part of the experience and the aromas from all the doorways of restaurants will have your mouth watering! Some of the restaurants we went to whilst visiting “Ask Italian”, “Wingstop”, “Mowgli” “Pret à Manger” next visit will hopefully include “Giggling squid” & “Las iguanas” as they looked amazing but booked out when we were there!!

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.

Really great space, lots of activities available to do within the property. Very convenient location in a lovely area. Lots of amenities provided and the beds were super comfy.
