Originally posted by DimPrawn View PostNo, I want to live in the Surrey / West London area in the leafy bits, so only the area inside the M25, M3, A3 bounded region.
I also need good access to Heathrow and Gatwick (incase I need a quick escape).Speaking gibberish on internet talkboards since last Michaelmas. Plus here on TwitterComment

What about Woking? Better or worse than Guildford?

Me and my rich mate have the same ideas.
Lower Kingswood, or nearby Walton on the Hill.
edit: On reflection, those may be slightly too far south eastward round the M25 for your taste. But not to worry - Got just the place for you: Stanwell Moor
It's a small and self contained village, about a mile from the M3, and a mile from the M25 - Loads of nearby fields and woods, and lakes (not all reservoirs), as you can see from the satellite photos. There are some nice houses round there, and if it was any leafier you'd need a machete just to walk down the street.
Some might say that being a couple of miles from Heathrow airport was a slight snag. But what those mupps don't realize is that being a mile _perpendicular_ to the runways makes all the difference, as none of the planes goes overhead!
A while ago there was talk of building a railway along the inside of the M25 past Stanwell Moor, as part of the new Heathrow Terminal work; but that may have been cancelled. (If not then you'd have your fast rail link too!)
Oh and it's also handy for Heathrow Airport.Last edited by OwlHoot; 4 April 2011, 14:15.Work in the public sector? Read the IR35 FAQ hereComment
