Location

Located between the market towns of Great Dunmow and Braintree, Felsted is a picturesque village surrounded by several hamlets within the North Essex countryside.   At its heart is one of the UK's leading public schools, which dates back to 1564 and has inspired the village since its inception with its impressive architecture and perfectly manicured cricket pitches.

Felsted boasts a variety of amenities, which includes a village store, a coffee shop and a tearoom (for books and music), a ladies boutique clothes shop and two village pubs, The Swan Inn and The Chequers. There are a wealth of clubs and societies and a vibrant community spirit within the village, many taking place within the Village Hall.

The area provides access to miles of footpaths: the Flitch Way, a former railway line that passes through 15 miles of rural Essex countryside provides an ideal route to jog, dog-walk or horse-ride, while nearby Great Notley Country Park and Hatfield Forest offer a wealth of leisure and green spaces.   There are further opportunities within the area for horse-riding lessons, a choice of golf courses, and superb sports and fitness facilities at Felsted School.

Felsted Gate's location offers excellent connectivity, with easy access to the A120 and proximity to the M11, making London and Cambridge accessible for commuters. Stansted Airport is also nearby, providing international travel options. The village of Felsted itself boasts a strong community spirit, renowned schools such as Felsted Independent School, and a range of local amenities, including shops, pubs, and eateries.
