Located in the picturesque county of Hertfordshire, Welwyn is a quintessential English village that charms visitors with its leafy streets, historic architecture, and strong sense of community. Often referred to as Welwyn Village to distinguish it from nearby Welwyn Garden City, the settlement dates back to Roman times and retains much of its traditional character. At the heart of the village stands St Mary's Church, Welwyn, a beautiful parish church with origins stretching back to the 13th century. Surrounding it are cozy pubs, independent shops, and timber-framed cottages that give Welwyn its timeless rural appeal.
Welwyn is also notable for its connection to early 20th-century planning ideals through its proximity to Welwyn Garden City, one of the world’s first garden cities. While Welwyn itself remains more traditional in character, residents benefit from excellent transport links, green countryside walks, and a peaceful atmosphere that feels far removed from the bustle of London. The nearby River Mimram and surrounding Hertfordshire countryside provide scenic walking routes, making Welwyn an attractive location for families, commuters, and visitors seeking a tranquil yet well-connected village setting.
