Letchworth has the distinction of being this country’s first Garden City, which is appropriate, given its location in the heart of such a gorgeous rural locality. The town of Hitchin has a charming museum that features the largest display of period costume in Britain, as well as an immaculate recreation of a Victorian chemist shop, and a psychic garden. Head to Stondon Museum to see a great selection of classic cars, and the Shuttleworth Collection, in Old Warden, for vintage aircraft. Last but not least, is the RSPB’s national HQ, at Sandy.
