Shere played the postcard village in The Holiday; Peaslake feeds the Hurtwood's mountain bikers; a blacksmith strikes the hours over Abinger Hammer's street; and the Silent Pool glints with legend above Albury. What none of them has: a railway station. Here's how the Hills actually travel.

Routinely called Surrey's prettiest village, and the camera agrees — when Hollywood needs England, it comes here. Real life needs transport: Guildford Stn £29 · Gatwick £36 · Heathrow £49 · London £96.
Folded deep into the Hurtwood's sandy singletrack country, its village store a bikers' pilgrimage. The lanes in are glorious and slow — we price them honestly. Guildford Stn £29 · Gatwick £39 · Heathrow £55.
An estate village on the Tillingbourne with the legend-haunted Silent Pool above — and Guildford's fast Waterloo trains just five miles away, the Hills' easiest rail link. Guildford Stn £29 · Gatwick £39 · London £96.
The blacksmith clock strikes the hours over Abinger Hammer's street; Westcott strings the Holmesdale below Ranmore. Both live by the A25 and travel by road. Abinger Hammer → Guildford £29 · Gatwick £36 · Westcott → Guildford £29 · Gatwick £31.
Fast Waterloo services (~35 min) make Guildford the Hills' railhead — 4 to 8 miles from every village here. Book the leg to the train you name, not to a clock, and London opens up.
Gatwick is nearer from the eastern Hills, Heathrow from nowhere in particular — the A3/M25 choice changes by the hour. Fixed fares to both; we pick the route live so you don't have to.
Narrow, wooded, beautiful and slow when they choose — the Hills' lanes reward drivers who use them daily. Buffers are set for the lane, the hour and the season, not a satnav's optimism.
