- A five-minute drive to Hertford; 20 minutes to Hatfield House
- Free entry to on-site farm park; discount on farm shop purchases
A comfy base, a lake and a farm shop to sort you out with bits for the barbecue… if that sounds like your kind of wishlist, head to the Hertfordshire countryside and a stay at Foxholes Farm. This is a place where rural atmosphere meets luxury accommodation… and with lakes around the site, there’s a good view to be had too (just the place to unwind with a drink in hand perhaps).
As barbecues are permitted here, there’s always the option of preparing the grill for some alfresco dining. With a farm shop that’s well stocked with local beef and rare-breed pork for your grill, along with fresh veg and various cakes and treats, you should be able to feed yourselves well (and you’ll get a bit of a discount on the standard prices to make everything taste even better…)
On top of that, there’s also a farm park on the same site where kids (even the grownup ones) can meet alpacas, lambs, pigs and other farm animals; you'll get free entry to this thrown in as well.
This little slice of rural life may well feel like it’s completely immersed in the countryside but in fact it’s only a few minutes’ drive from the centre of Hertford and the A10, which means easy access to shops and pubs when you want them, and to the road network for days out around the area.

Local attractions
There’s a lot of wildlife to spot around this part of the country. Whether it’s all the birds and dragonflies at Panshanger Park (10 minutes’ drive), the 30 acres of gardens at Capel Manor Gardens (20 minutes) or the scents of Benington Lordship Gardens (20 minutes) – also home to a popular chilli festival – there should be plenty to see around here.
There are big cats, meerkats, penguins and plenty of other animals at Paradise Wildlife Park (15 minutes), but those of you who prefer to fill your itinerary with history and culture might want to take off to the Hertford Museum (five minutes) or Hatfield House (20 minutes), a fine example of a Jacobean house and garden.
What else to pack into your stay? Perhaps the swimming pool and skatepark at Hartham Common (10 minutes)? A round of golf with the gang at Chadwell Springs Family Golf Centre (five minutes)? Or, for the more adventurous folks among you, the Lea Valley White Water Centre (20 minutes) runs canoeing and kayaking courses on the lake as well as intrepid whitewater rafting activities.
