Visits and attractions

Welcome to Surrey!

Enjoy the tranquillity of our rolling green hills or experience a night out at one of our many nationally acclaimed theatres. Soak up the atmosphere of bygone eras in our historical buildings and monuments or shop until you drop in our modern shopping malls. Enjoy a quiet pint in a traditional country pub or dazzle your tastebuds in one of our top class restaurants.

Come and discover sun-dappled footpaths that criss-cross one of the most wooded counties in the country. Leap into the 21st Century in our modern art galleries. Stand at the highest point in the south-east of England and marvel at the breathtaking views of the Surrey Hills and surrounding countryside. Experience first-hand the very latest in music at a festival or in the pubs and clubs that abound. Or visit old stately homes where, for centuries, celebrated artists, musicians and literary figures have found inspiration.

Discovering this mini-England couldn't be easier as the county boasts an excellent infrastructure of roads, railways and even rivers. The Surrey Cycleway offers one of the best ways of exploring the unexpected beauty of this county.

Whether you stay in one of our first class hotels, a cosy bed and breakfast or campsite, you will find that there is always plenty to do in a county where old traditions and institutions such as royal residences, cream teas and cricket rub shoulders with modern architecture, contemporary theatre, excellent sporting facilities and state-of-the-art theme parks.

Information about various attractions across Surrey can be found on the Visit South East England website and the Visit Britain website.
