The 11 Best Pubs with Rooms in Surrey

Surrey is a great choice if you are looking for somewhere rural yet within close proximity of London. It is somewhat of a varied county with both Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty and historical towns and villages contrasting with rather less inspiring sprawling suburbs. Therefore, it is important to do your research before planning your getaway. With this in mind, our hotel experts have scanned the region and compiled a collection of the best pubs with rooms in Surrey. Chosen first on their location, these pubs with rooms range from boutique chic to cosy rural escapes with the quintessential roaring fires, exposed beams and flagstone floors. So why not browse through our list to start planning your next break?

• The Running Horses is a 16th-century coaching inn located near Dorking. Five smartly decorated country-chic rooms are decked out with antique furniture. With traditional British cuisine and a very reasonable price tag - this is a good choice for an easy weekend away.
