Country escapes don’t get much more idyllic than this beautifully renovated studio barn in the village of Hascombe. Surrounded by two Areas of Oustanding Natural Beauty – the South Downs and the Surrey Hills – you’re in the perfect spot to enjoy countless walking trails and stunning scenery galore. Inside, vaulted beamed ceilings and country chic decor create a warm and cosy welcome. Make yourself at home on one of the armchairs by the wood-burning fire and enjoy a glass of wine and some quiet reading in the warmth of its glow. The king-size bed beckons a blissful night’s sleep in its sumptuous sheets and wonderful wake-ups to views of the grounds before tucking into the fresh breakfast delivered to your door each morning. Afternoons call for sunny spells on your home’s private outdoor loungers or ramping up the action with a game of croquet on the shared lawn. Lunchtime invites picnics in the grounds’ thirteen-acre meadow, while dinnertime is the perfect excuse to indulge in a hearty feast at The White Horse – one of the region’s best gastro-pubs – just a two-minute stroll away. When it comes to exploring further afield, the National Trust Winkworth Arboretum is a... four-minute drive away, the Hascombe Hill viewing point is a five-minute drive and bustling Guildford is eighteen minutes away by car.

About Surrey
Whether you’re looking to switch the bustle of city-living for the quintessential cosy English cottage in a picturesque, chocolate-box village – following in the footsteps of Cameron Diaz’s character in ‘The Holiday’ – or looking for a quiet country pad to take the kids for the weekend – Surrey is a world away from the liveliness of London, despite being less than half an hour from Central. Take a wander...
