Local area

Dating back from the 10th century, Hertford is a lovely old market town with plenty of things to see and do. Four rivers, the Beane, Rib, Mimram and Lea all converge in Hertford and flow on to join the River Thames, which make it a very picturesque town with lots of green trees spread across the riverbanks.

Hertford offers great public transport links – it has two train stations, Hertford East and Hertford North, both of which are within walking distance from the McCarthy & Stone Retirement Living development. Hertford East can have you in London in under an hour, while Hertford North runs a direct service to London Kings Cross on the weekends.

First opportunity for Hertford retirees to reserve new apartments

27 Feb 2018

We have released pricing and apartment specifications for our latest Retirement Living development Isabella House on Hale Road in Hertford.

Following local interest in Hertford, McCarthy and Stone announced last year it would be constructing a new Retirement Living and Retirement Living Plus development to help meet continued demand for those looking to downsize in and around the area.

Royal links inspire now Hertford development

03 Jan 2018

Our new dual Retirement Living and Retirement Living PLUS developments on Hale Road and Pegs Lane in Hertford, have been named in honour of the area’s historic royal links.

Hertford Castle was regularly used by English royalty, and was particularly favoured by Edward II and his wife Queen Isabella, who lived in the beautiful Grade I Listed castle for long periods up until her death. The couple’s son, Edward III, also spent much of his time in Hertford Castle, which dates back to the 15^th century. In homage of the local landmark and its rich history, McCarthy and Stone’s new Hertford Retirement Living development has been named Isabella House, and its neighbouring Retirement Living PLUS development has been named Edward House.
