History on every corner
With 510 Brentwood buildings listed for their historical and architectural importance, you're surrounded by history in Brentwood. The pretty town centre is home to the ruins of the St Thomas a Becket Chapel, reminding us of Brentwood or ‘Burnt wood' beginning as a resting place for pilgrims on their way to Canterbury.
Outdoor activities
Brentwood is surrounded by lush green countryside. If you're an outdoor type, head for Thorndon Country Park where you can enjoy a relaxing stroll through the beautiful woodlands, spot the wildlife which thrives there and, in the summer months, enjoy barbecues and picnics while taking in the views which stretch as far as Canary Wharf. Weald Country Park also offers spectacular views and a variety of landscapes, from wild and woolly deer park to formal gardens and lakes.
Eating out
Brentwood has a wide range of restaurants to choose from – there's traditional pub grub in Brentwood's chains like The Slug and Lettuce and independents like The Olde Dog Inn. If you fancy more exotic fare, there's Thai, Chinese, Indian and Italian. And for a special occasion or an indulgent treat, why not get all glammed up and head to Thai-theme restaurant and club, the Sugar Hut Village, housed in a lavishly renovated 15th-century coaching inn in the heart of Brentwood village?
Nightlife
Brentwood is famous for its nightlife. Sugar Hut is the most famous of its nightspots, but it doesn't end there. Start your evening in one of Brentwood's many pubs and sports bars, then head on to Eclipse, the nearby Faces or, if you're feeling really adventurous, Brentwood's only a 40-minute train journey from London and all the delights offered in the West End.
Shopping
Brentwood town centre has all the big High Street chains, many housed in the Baytree shopping centre. In recent years, a number of fashion boutiques owned by stars of the reality TV show ‘The Only Way is Essex' have sprung up, so you can star spot while you shop in ‘Harry's World' or ‘Lucy's Boutique'.
