Despite being so close to the capital, and very well connected, Surrey has pockets of rural-like calm that are worth indulging in. Seek out the quiet villages, the peace of the Surrey Hills, or even the edge of the stunning South Downs in the most southerly corner. You'll find numerous pockets of green from commons to parks and there are excellent places to eat too. Surrey is an underrated spot to take a cottage holiday and recharge.
