This beautiful, medieval market town is packed with interesting buildings and family friendly public gardens, with no less than four unique mazes to enjoy. There's been a market on this site since 1141 selling traditional, local goods such as fruit, veg, flowers, collectables and whole foods. In 2018 it won Best Small Outdoor Market in the Great British Market Awards and in 2023 it was named as The Sunday Times "best place to live in the east" with judges praising its country feel, busy high street and café scene. Download the Medieval Walden walking trail or their World War Two Trail for interesting insights into the town's past.

Customers love this destination. "I enjoyed every minute of exploring this delightful town. There is so much to see" • "We enjoyed our trip to Saffron Walden yesterday. Excellent driver, very good timekeeping and comfortable coach" • "Bridge End Garden was well worth the visit ... St Mary's Church was very impressive and surprisingly large given the size of the town".

The coach is due to arrive at 12:00 and depart at 16:30, setting down and picking up in the Swan Meadow Car Park, just a short walk down Park Lane to the centre of town. Opening times/dates for the mazes vary so please check with the local TIC.
