Letchworth Garden City was conceived in the early 1900's by Ebenezer Howard as the world's first Garden City. It was designed to combine energetic town life with the beauty of the countryside. The town offers a variety of High Street stores, independent shops, restaurants and public houses together with a wide range of attractions including museums, art galleries, a four screen cinema & theatre, swimming pool, golf, tennis and leisure facilities, parks and gardens, and green open spaces literally on your doorstep, yet only 29 minutes from Kings Cross/St Pancras and just 20 minutes to Cambridge, whilst the A1(M) is a few minutes drive, and London Luton Airport 25 minutes away. The town is blessed with many highly regarded and sought after schools, including St. Nicholas C of E primary school within walking distance, and the private schools of St. Christophers and St.Francis school for girls are five minutes drive.
