Watford sits in the county of Hertfordshire a mere 21 miles from north west London making it extremely close to the M25 circling London and the M1 that travels north to the Midlands. Not only does it have good road connections but Watford is served well on the railways too with rail routes to the Midlands, Scotland and beyond!

If you're more interested in water transport then Watford is the place! It is situated on the Grand Union Canal which although has very little commercial activity is ideal for pleasure activities.

Geri Halliwell the Spice Girl, Vinnie Jones and Mo Mowlam were all born in Watford, and with Sir Elton John reported to be a supporter of Watford Football Club, Watford town certainly has links to the rich and famous!
