THINGS TO DO IN HEMEL HEMPSTEAD

Hemel Hempstead makes for an interesting destination, pre or post, an unforgettable balloon ride over Hertfordshire. The town is split into two key parts – The Old Town, which dates back to Tudor times, and New Town, a post-war expansion of the town. Combined, they offer the visitor plenty to enjoy during their stay.

For a delightful stroll, consider heading to the canal with its numerous waterside pubs and restaurants. And if you can’t find what you’re looking for there to tickle the taste buds, then both the old and new sides of town have plenty more options. If you find yourself in The Old Town, then pop into The Old Town Hall, which is now a buzzing arts space. For a bit of interesting history, then head to Frogmore Paper Mill, which is the world’s oldest mechanical papermill and the birthplace of paper’s industrial revolution! With so much to do, and so close to London, Hemel Hempstead might well surprise you with what it has to offer.
