Property information

Benslow Music is an organisation which provides year round music courses at our lovely premises and Bed & Breakfast accommodation when spare rooms are available. We offer a variety of bedrooms with either en-suite or shared bathroom facilities. These are spread across the campus and cater to everyone’s budget, offering some of the best rates in town. We also have ample free parking. Please note, there are no televisions on-site, however we do provide free Wi-Fi. While we do not offer restaurant or bar facilities, Hitchin town centre is only a 10 minute walk away and there are a number of fine restaurants nearby. When we have courses in residence you may be lucky enough to find yourself in the company of fine music and musicians (classical, folk and jazz). You will also marvel at the tranquillity and beauty of our gardens. Benslow Music is close to major road, rail and air links and a 5 minute walk from Hitchin train station. London and Cambridge are just a short 30 minute train journey away which makes Benslow Music an ideal base for shopping or exploring some of England’s most beautiful countryside, while the historic town of Hitchin is a destination in itself.
