“Originally a 16th-century coaching inn, now gastropub with rooms, The Running Horses is situated not far from Dorking. It features five smartly decorated country-chic rooms all with Hypnos mattresses, antique furniture and wide beds. Traditional rustic British cuisine and great value too!”

Running Horses, Mickelham, Surrey: hotel review

"It’s right in the London commuter belt and is run by a large brewery but this inn gets top marks for its revamp and is tapping in to a surprisingly diverse clientele"
