[#1360150]

At the start of May we're coming over to see some friends & family..we have about 3 days free starting from nr Guildford...at the end we need to check into a hotel in wimbledon..

So any suggestions of where to go - nice places you've stayed etc?? will have a hire car but ideally dont want to drive for 5 hrs..

Go for a ride around the Surrey Hills!
A day in London would be good - National Gallery, Museums etc.
Salisbury/Stonehenge - Lovely part of the world, could even spread it across to Bath and overnight somewhere (Plenty of very nice places to stay around there!)

oh and feel free to embelish on those responses!!

I know the google exists, but the stw collective seem to have a right discerning eye...so ideally if you have a fantastic village you've been to with a nice little hotel (or big hotel for that matter) dont hesitate!

Waves!
Are you after culture, scenery or heritage?
I assume you'll be going for a curry in Wimbledon and maybe cocktails?

New Forest is not too far from where you will be.

Then again the Peak District is only 3 hours from Surrey...
