Moving to or from Surrey?
Let M&G Do the Heavy Lifting (Before the M25 Junction Sends You Round in Circles)
Welcome to Surrey — England’s commuter county, where leafy suburbs meet market towns and the M25 keeps Guildford and London firmly connected. With around 1.2 million residents who know the shortcut past Box Hill better than any sat‑nav, Surrey blends countryside calm with city convenience.
Schools That Actually Impress
Guildford High, Charterhouse (the independent heavyweight), and Reigate Grammar all carry strong reputations. Translation: your kids will get a solid education, and you’ll have plenty of parents comparing exam results at the school gates.
Economy With a Balance
Surrey’s economy mixes finance, tech, and pharmaceuticals with growing creative and service hubs in Guildford and Woking. Add in commuters heading to London, and you’ve got a county that’s practical, connected, and quietly thriving.
Things to Do (Besides Timing the M25 Traffic)
Box Hill – iconic viewpoint and cycling hotspot.
Guildford Castle – history wrapped around a bustling town centre.
Local favourites – Surrey Hills walks for fresh air, Brooklands Museum for motoring heritage, and Surrey County Cricket Club for matchday buzz.
