4 bed detached house to rent

Woodhill Lane, Shamley Green, Guildford GU5

Welcome to this peaceful four-bedroom cottage nestled in The Surrey Hills countryside and tucked away on a private road, in the highly sought-after village of Shamley Green. With views over fields and hills this is the perfect place to live; the village green is within walking distance where you can find one of two fabulous local pubs, the village shop/post office and the newly opened café and deli.

Inside the house, you will find everything you need for comfortable living, from a cosy sitting room to a stunning sunroom that opens onto your patio and from an office with a view over the garden and beyond to a good-sized utility room. Plus additional space, which could be an annexe, at the bottom of the garden.

This is a home for all seasons, a place for intimate winter evenings by the woodburning stove to summer days entertaining guests on the patio and a perfectly enclosed garden for children to play safely.

The surrounding countryside is beautiful, with direct links onto the Downs Way, which provides mile upon mile of walking, riding and cycling opportunities across to Blackheath and Farley Heath.

Godalming and Guildford are a short drive and offer a range of shopping and supermarkets, plus cultural and recreational opportunities.

Local schooling is excellent; there is a village nursery, pre-school, C of E Infant School and a Montessori school. Many children are enrolled into the independent Longacre School, which is tucked away behind the village green a very popular choice for local families. St. Catherine’s School and St. Catherine’s Prep School in nearby Bramley are held in high regard, and Cranleigh School and Cranleigh Prep are other very popular choices.
