Hitchin traces its roots to the Saxon era, when it served as the capital of the local hundred, and today the market town blends that medieval street plan with an easy, welcoming pace. Wander past the timber-framed buildings before settling into one of its cafes for a proper cup of tea, or plan a longer stay among the hotels dotted around town. When hunger strikes, the local restaurants round out a visit that rewards unhurried exploration.
