St Albans is a beautiful city - lovely for walks, great food and pub scene. Bit expensive but good for a day trip.
In a similar vein but admittedly larger, Cambridge is lovely. I have a soft spot for Ely (hello books), but it might be just over your mileage. |

"How about
Stratford up Avon
Stamford
Cambridge
All nice for a day trip.
Or a bit further is the Peak District - high peak is 2-2.5 hours (Castleton) , the dales is 1.5 (Ashbourne )
"
Stamford is a beautiful town I've been through it a few times ..
Good call |

Definitely visit there! And go to Fitz' for their amazing Chelsea buns; I have many happy memories of the day after May Balls enjoying freshly baked pastries and sitting on the lawn.  |

Depends what you want to do, if tilts just escape the built up bits to something more easy on the eye, The Wilbrahams about 6-7 miles out of the centre is all thatched cottages and a decent looking pub for lunch- or an alternative is Baldock near Letchworth, but more built up but looked rather nice on the occasions I’ve driven through it |

"Coventry cathedral(s) is free. Stunning buildings. If you like motorbikes there’s the motorcycle museum near Birmingham airport. "
