Surrey
Surrey is a county renowned for its prestigious landscapes and dense woodland, and is famously the most wooded county in England. Its geography is characterised by the Surrey Hills, an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, featuring iconic landmarks such as Box Hill, which offers panoramic views across the Weald.
Historically, the county is known as the site of the sealing of the Magna Carta at Runnymede in 1215, and it is home to the Tudor splendour of Hampton Court Palace.
Economically, Surrey is one of the UK’s wealthiest regions, hosting the headquarters of global giants in the pharmaceutical, technology, and automotive sectors, including McLaren’s high-tech campus in Woking. From the world-class botanical beauty of RHS Garden Wisley to the historic motor racing heritage of Brooklands, Surrey effortlessly combines high-value innovation with some of the most desirable rural retreats within the London commuter belt.
