Great Dunmow is a charming market town nestled in the north-west of Essex, full of character, community spirit and a good dose of countryside calm. With its historic buildings, welcoming high street and a pace of life that's just the right side of relaxed, it's the kind of place where you can pick up your shopping from an independent deli in the morning, enjoy a long lunch at a local pub, then take a quiet walk by the river in the afternoon. It's surrounded by open fields, old lanes and little villages, making it popular with both long-term locals and those looking to settle somewhere with a bit of soul.

The town's history goes back to Roman times, with archaeological digs uncovering pottery, coins and even parts of villas nearby. The medieval period left a more obvious mark – Great Dunmow was granted a market charter in 1253 and quickly grew into a bustling centre for trade. The town is most famously known for the Dunmow Flitch Trials, an age-old tradition where married couples are awarded a flitch of bacon if they can prove, in front of a jury, that they haven't argued for a year and a day. It's quirky, historic and very much part of the town's identity, still celebrated every four years with full pomp and ceremony.

There's plenty to explore in and around the town. The Doctor's Pond is a peaceful spot for a picnic or feed-the-ducks kind of afternoon, while the Flitch Way offers a brilliant walking and cycling route along a former railway line. The town centre is packed with local shops, tea rooms, pubs and a lovely mix of period architecture. Just a short drive away, you'll find National Trust's Hatfield Forest – an ancient royal hunting forest filled with old oaks and plenty of space to roam. English Heritage's Audley End House and Gardens is another must-see nearby – an impressive Jacobean mansion with grand interiors, working stables and a beautiful landscape setting that makes a cracking day out.

Wider Essex has loads on offer, especially if you're up for exploring. Head to Colchester for Roman ruins, castle views and a lively shopping scene, or make your way to the coast – Maldon's maritime charm and salt flats are ideal for a slow day out. Southend delivers traditional seaside fun, while Saffron Walden, just up the road, is packed with old-world charm, independent shops and a proper market-town feel. Dedham Vale and the Stour Valley show off Essex's softer, greener side with views that inspired John Constable, while Chelmsford brings you riverside walks, shopping centres and a growing food scene.

Getting to Great Dunmow is fairly straightforward. It's just off the A120, making it easy to get to from the M11 or A12, and it's only a few miles from London Stansted Airport – which is ideal whether you're heading abroad or picking someone up. While the town doesn't have its own station, nearby rail links at Stansted Mountfitchet and Braintree offer routes into London and across the region. There are regular buses into Chelmsford, Bishop's Stortford and surrounding villages, and once you're in town, it's compact enough to get around on foot or by bike without much fuss.

Essex often gets misunderstood, but those who take the time to dig beneath the surface find a county packed with variety. It's a blend of rolling farmland, winding estuaries, vibrant towns and tiny villages that still hold on to their traditions. You'll find Roman ruins and Norman churches, family-run pubs and modern restaurants, centuries-old market squares and new communities popping up all over. There's a strong sense of identity wherever you go, and no matter what kind of day out or lifestyle you're after, there's a corner of Essex that fits the bill.
