Aldbury Village Pond

Highlight • Settlement

This small 'chocolate box' village is not quite as understated as it seems. Due to its closeness in proximity to Elstree Studio, it has been featured in quite the array of televisions and films.

Whilst it's probably best known internationally for its appearances in The Dirty Dozen and Bridget Jone's Diary, it's also featured in British gems such as Midsomer Murders, Inspector Morse and The Avengers.

Aldbury Village

Highlight • Cafe

Known for its picturesque qualities, this charming village is a Hertfordshire favourite. Explore timber-framed cottages and quintessential old British pubs as you wander around the beautiful streets.

Clickmere Pond

Highlight • Forest

A really beautiful pond here within Pitstone Common, with a newly built (in 2010) platform. The pond has shrunk in size over the years, but it's still a lovely place to be, and in the autumn the colours of the leaves on the trees here are totally gorgeous, only adding to the effect of the place.

Bluebell Woods at Ashridge Estate

Highlight • Natural Monument

The Ashridge Estate is a glorious place for a hike, with around 5,000 acres (2,000 ha) of oak and beech woodlands, beautiful commons and quintessential chalk downlands. It's a treat all year round but special mention has to go to spring's bluebells and the butterflies of summer. There are many miles of footpaths and bridleways to explore, while there's also a visitor centre where you can find out more about the area.

Ashridge House

Highlight • Castle

This is a fantastic house and was the former home of the 7th Earl of Bridgewater, the father of the English canal system. It was built in the classic Gothic Revival style and largely completed in 1814.
