The neighbourhood
The property is located at the edge of a quiet village near the
Surrey Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. You can walk to neighbouring villages and work up an appetite for lunch at one of the country pubs, while the wider area is fantastic for hiking, cycling and horse-riding.
The local high street, approximately a 10-minute drive away, is where you will find a large supermarket and several bars and restaurants. Meanwhile, the affluent and thriving market town of Reigate is also about a 10 to 15-minute drive from the property. Here, you can easily spend a day perusing the independent shops on the high street and picking which cafe, restaurant or pub to find your next refreshments. Reigate is also famous for its caves which are old sand mines that are open to the public on special open days that are held several times a year.
There is plenty to do in the local area and if you’re looking for a relaxing day out, head to The National Trust’s Reigate Hill and Gatton Park. This stretch of the North Downs is particularly good for a woodland walk and a picnic. Alternatively, try Margery Woods which is fantastic for a stroll through the bluebells in spring and there are incredible views from Colley Hill towards the South Downs.
For some adrenaline inducing fun, thrills and spills, make a beeline for Chessington World of Adventures Resort, about half an hour’s drive away. Or challenge yourselves to an exciting treetop adventure course at Skywalk Adventure. More family fun can be enjoyed at Hobbledown Adventure Farm Park & Zoo or Godstone Farm.
