Directions

By Car - Take junction 8 on the M11, signposted to the A120, Hertford, Bishop’s Stortford. - Take the exit off the roundabout signposted Hertford and Bishops Stortford. - Go straight across the first roundabout and continue along this road until you come to another roundabout. - Take the 3rd exit, signposted B1383 Newport, Mountfitchet Castle and Audley End House. - Continue for about one mile on this road and you will enter the village of Stansted Mountfitchet. - You will pass the Old Bell Public House on your right, go down the hill and up the other side. - At the top of the hill you will see a right turn for Chapel Hill (B1051, signposted Elsenham). - Chapel Hill is immediately before the Total Garage. Turn right into Chapel Hill. - Go down Chapel Hill, passing the fire station on your right. - At the bottom of the hill you will come to a pedestrian crossing, and the Kings Arms Public house. Turn left and you are now in Lower Street. - Continue along Lower Street and when you approach the fork in the road (Flutes Wine & Tapas Bar will be in front of you), take the left-hand road and Chimneys is the 3rd house on the right. (If you are going up hill by the traffic lights you have taken the wrong road). Overnight parking is available for guests on the gravel drive immediately to the right of the house. (Look out for the brown tourist signs for Mountfitchet Castle which is situated at the end of Lower Street, in the village of Stansted.) By Rail: Take a train to the Village of Stansted Mountfitchet (please note this is not the same station as Stansted Airport). Chimneys is located approximately 200 yards’ flat walk from the station. If travelling from the south (London Liverpool Street), as you alight from the train leave the station and walk down the road past the Saab garage and towards the main road. Cross this road outside the Kings Arms pub at the Pelican Crossing, continue straight ahead along Lower Street. If you go up a hill you are going the wrong way. Continue along Lower Street past the Queens Head, cobblers, newsagents etc., and you will come to a fork in the road, with the Flutes Wine & Tapas Bar on the corner. Take the left fork and Chimneys is the 3rd house on the right. From the North (Cambridge, Stansted Airport): As you alight from the train it is easier not to cross over the foot bridge but to exit the station next to the waiting room and walk up the ramp (this will avoid the stairs). When you get to the top of the ramp, cross over the road and turn left, walk over the bridge and down to the crossroads. Turn right and you are now in Lower Street. Walk past the butchers and Bada Bing Italian restaurant, and when you get to the fork in the road with Flutes Wine & Tapas Bar in the corner, take the left fork. Chimneys is the 3rd house on the right. (If you are going up hill by the traffic lights you have taken the wrong road).
