A Guide To Surrey And Its Historic Towns

By: Cindy Norgte

Surrey is perceived as an affluent suburban place which is home to numerous London commuters. because of this, the area is often labelled the gin and jag, stockbroker belt or the patio of London. however, the county has much more to offer than merely residences.

Indeed, 70 percent of Surrey is green belt land, which can't be built on or turned into suburban residences. This makes the county a fantastic place for ramblers, riders and cyclists to visit for a calm day out.

There are many reasons to stop over Surrey, but we've created some of the best and put them into the tourism guide below. Whether you're interested in walking, cycling, exploring heritage sites or even merely shopping, we're sure that you'll find something to interest you.

Surrey can be easily reached by road and train from the middle of london and it's also within easy reach of many other great britain cities.

With 22.4 % woodland coverage compared to the uk average of 11.8 %, Surrey is the most wooded county in britain. The county boasts numerous notable beauty spots, including Box Hill, Leith Hill, Frensham Ponds, Newland's Corner & the Puttenham & Crooksbury Commons. in fact, Box Hill has the oldest untouched place of natural woodland in britain and one of the oldest in Europe.

These wonderful areas of woodland make Surrey the perfect place for walkers, ramblers and bicycle riders to visit.

If you're looking for a exciting family day trip, you could go to an open day at Busbridge Lakes for a gorgeous picnic. on the other hand, you could take in the breathtaking scenery placed around the striking Chatley Heath Semaphore Tower or even at Outwood, which is home to the the oldest fully functioning windmill in great britain. The more adventurous visitor can also consider taking a boat trip along the Wey Navigation or even going on a bicycle ride along the Downs Link Path.

As well as these outdoor pursuits, you'll also be happy to know that the Surrey towns of Leatherhead, Chertsey & Farnham have some exciting museums, including the Ash Museum. For fans of art, there's also the Forge & Dragon galleries or the Watts Picture Galleries, both of which display some fine work. on the other hand, you could visit the superb Hogs Back Brewery at Tongham, which has over 500 different types of beer for you to try.

If you are planning to do some shopping in Surrey, you will find that Guildford has everything you need & more. As well as many specialist shops, you will also find renowned names such as House of Fraser, Debenhams, Boots, m & s & w.h. smith here. In addition to this, the town also has a popular market on Fridays & Saturdays.

For a more old-fashioned shopping experience, visit Farnham. This beautiful town is still very old-fashioned with some exciting specialist shops that are placed just below Farnham Castle.

With everything from rural rambles to first-class shopping opportunities, Surrey is a fantastic place to visit. If you have been unable to find all the information you require from our very brief guide to the county, please get in touch with your nearest tourist information who will be happy to help you.

We hope you have enjoyed perusing our surrey tourism guide!
