About the Area
Hertfordshire is the perfect balance of large towns that deliver easy access to London with smaller countryside villages that have a peaceful atmosphere and picturesque views. It is an extremely popular location for businesses for this reason, allowing their staff to commute with ease while also accessing the rest of the country and beyond comfortably via motorway links and nearby airports.
The bustling county plays host to a number of large UK company headquarters, in part because of the brilliant transport links it offers to the rest of the country. Hatfield is also the site for a large business park where a number of large corporations have office premises. Hertfordshire has a number of points of interest, including Leavesden Film Studios, St Albans Cathedral, the University of Hertfordshire and Cedars Park.
Types of Office Space Available
There is a wide range of office types to choose from in Hertfordshire, from modern purpose-built premises to vast business centres that can accommodate hundreds of employees. Companies of all different sizes will find private or coworking spaces to suit their requirements here, with the added bonus of plenty of car parks within easy reach of the main towns in the area.
Classic-looking offices in tranquil spots such as St Albans come with stunning countryside views, while renovated spaces in locations such as Stevenage and Harpenden provide a modern environment for small to medium-sized companies who want to expand or relocate.
Surrounding Areas
Hertfordshire is surrounded by Essex to the east, Bedfordshire and Cambridgeshire in the north, and to the west is Buckinghamshire. The county itself is home to some larger towns, including Hemel Hempstead, Watford, Stevenage and St Albans. Euston and Kings Cross are less than a 45-minute train journey away from most towns in Hertfordshire too, making it an ideal location for your office to be based.
Transport Links
Companies renting office space in Hertfordshire benefit from excellent transport links throughout the county and beyond. Hertfordshire forms part of the London commuter belt, with connections to the A1, M1, M11 and M25. There are also four principal railway lines passing through this county and a number of other local routes for connections to London. There is the added benefit of three commuter lines – the London Underground Metropolitan line, the Watford DC line and the Lea Valley line – as well as local bus routes. For those travelling further afield, both Luton and Stansted Airport are within a 10-mile distance.
