Oxted

A perfect town

Head to the far east of the Surrey and you’ll find a charming town with a big personality set at the foot of the North Downs – Oxted. This charming little town is popular with commuters due to a fast train in to London Bridge in just over 30 minutes, as well as also going direct in to London Victoria. The town provides everything you could wish for, including a large Morrisons, a Little Waitrose and boutique shops of every size.

There are enough lovely restaurants to dine out every night for a fortnight and newly refurbished Everyman Cinema. The leisure centre and the beautiful Master Park is perfect for little ones and big ones to spend Saturday mornings.

Pretty and well connected

Lying in the eastern part of Surrey in the local district of Tandridge, Oxted was listed in the Domesday book of 1086 as Acstede which translates as ‘place where Oaks grow’. It is an attractive bustling town with a direct train service to London. You will find a wide choice of restaurants and the delightful High Street is home to four pubs, The Old Bell, The George Inn, The Crown Inn and The Wheatsheaf. The stunning gardens at Titsey Place, one of Surrey’s largest survinging estates can be found nearby.
