Things to do around Surrey

Surrey, located in the southeastern part of England, offers a delightful mix of historical sites, natural beauty, and family-friendly activities. Whether you're a local or a visitor, here are some fantastic options for a memorable day out in Surrey:

1. Visit Polesden Lacey:
- Polesden Lacey is a beautiful Regency villa surrounded by formal gardens, pergolas, and a rose garden. Explore the stunning grounds, including long borders with perennials and a winter garden. Queen Elizabeth (the former Queen mother) even spent part of her honeymoon here in 1923.

2. See the Bluebells at Hatchlands Park:
- Hatchlands Park, near Guildford, is known for its gardens. In spring, blooming bluebells create a sea of violet flowers in Little Wix Wood. Explore the 400-hectare park and visit restored rooms with works by Robert Adam. The Cobbe portrait of Shakespeare, believed to be the only portrait made during his lifetime, may also be displayed inside the house.

3. Get Lost in Hampton Court Maze:
- Hampton Court Palace, originally home to King Henry VIII, features a 304-hectare park, gardens, and courtyards. Explore the famous maze, where getting lost is part of the fun.

4. Explore Stoke Park, Guildford:

5. Discover Surrey Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty:
- Located just south of Guildford, the Surrey Hills AONB is a haven for nature lovers. Explore rolling hills, ancient woodlands, and scenic trails. Don't miss the breathtaking views from viewpoints like Box Hill.

6. Enjoy Watersports at Frensham Great Pond:
- Frensham Great Pond, near Farnham, is perfect for water enthusiasts. Try sailing, windsurfing, or paddleboarding on the tranquil waters. The surrounding heathland and sandy beaches add to the charm.

7. Visit Watts Gallery - Artists' Village:
- Explore the Watts Gallery in Compton. This unique artists' village includes the gallery, chapel, and studios. Admire Victorian art and learn about the life and work of artist George Frederic Watts.

8. Discover Rural Charm in Godalming:
- Godalming, a historic market town, offers picturesque streets, independent shops, and riverside walks along the River Wey. Visit the Surrey Scout Water Activities Club for canoeing, kayaking, and sailing adventures.

9. Explore Guildford Castle and Gardens:
- Guildford Castle, with its Norman keep, offers panoramic views of the town and surrounding countryside. Wander through the castle gardens and enjoy a picnic with a view.

10. Sample Local Food and Drink:
- Surrey is home to charming pubs, tearooms, and farm shops. Try local produce, indulge in cream teas, and savor the flavors of the county.

Remember to check opening hours and any booking requirements for these attractions. Whether you're interested in history, nature, or relaxation, Surrey promises a delightful day out!
