Location of Cedars Village Retirement Community
What is there to do nearby?
Close to the community itself, Chorleywood Common Golf Club, a County Heritage Site that is popular for walkers as well as golfers is just the other side of the common.
Neighbouring towns include Watford, Hemel Hempstead and High Wycombe, if you fancy a trip out and a chance to browse the bustling shopping centres.
Where else can we explore?
Thanks to excellent transport links, London’s world-class attractions are never far away. Whether you’re in the mood for a night at the theatre, a visit to one of the city’s many museums, or a live concert, it’s all within easy reach. Foodies can enjoy everything from fine dining to trendy cafés, while shoppers have access to flagship stores, boutique shops, and bustling markets.
And it’s not just the big-ticket experiences — the city is full of hidden gems waiting to be discovered, from secret gardens to historic streets and cultural events. Yet after a day of exploring, you can return to the tranquillity of the village, where the peace, community, and comforts of home are always waiting. With the best of both worlds at your fingertips, adventure and relaxation go hand in hand.
Need more choice?
For nature and wildlife enthusiasts, Chorleywood House Estate is just a short 15-minute walk or a few minutes’ drive from the village. Explore scenic country walking routes, wander through beautifully maintained formal gardens, or try your hand at wood carving sessions. It’s a hidden gem that’s fully accessible for wheelchairs, welcoming to children, and perfect for dogs.
If you want to venture a little further, the Chiltern Hills offer endless opportunities for adventure. Miles of hiking and cycling trails wind through rolling countryside, dotted with charming pubs and local farm shops. Whether you’re after fresh air, exercise, or simply a day out in nature, there’s something to suit every pace and interest.
Easy links to travel further afield
Cedars itself has its own bus stop which takes residents the one mile trip into Chorleywood, which has a good mix of shops and amenities. There’s a library, a church, a Post Office, a doctor’s surgery, vets and plenty of eateries and independent shops.
Choreleywood also offers direct links straight into London, by rail or on the Underground, and the area also offers easy accessibility to any of the London airports, especially London Luton Airport.
Just minutes from the M25, you can get around, into and out of London very easily and you can also head up to the North very quickly by switching onto the M1.
