🏡 Could Walton-on-Thames be one of Surrey’s best places to live?

Riverside pubs, brunch by the water, independent finds, leafy walks and a direct train to Waterloo in around 25-30 minutes. Walton has that sweet spot of village-y community spirit and everyday convenience - with plenty to keep you busy at weekends, too.

There’s a lovely mix of local independents, family-friendly spots and cultural gems, plus a surprising claim to fame: Walton was once home to Hepworth Studios, which made one of the earliest British film versions of Alice in Wonderland. 🎬

A few of our local favourites to put on your radar:

🍻 The Swan - riverside drinks and a garden by the Thames
☕ The Boathouse - coffee with a marina view
🥑 Wilde Brunch Cafe - a waterside brunch spot
🇪🇸 Mañana - Spanish and Mexican flavours on Bridge Street
🎭 Riverhouse Barn Arts Centre - riverside performances and summer music

And with well-regarded schools and Brooklands Museum, Mercedes-Benz World and Painshill all nearby, there’s plenty more to explore.

Walton-on-Thames is in our Muddy Best Places to Live 2027 guide. Would you live here?

🥂 Ch*****ne on arrival, a dreamy suite and a Great Dane who’s a star in his own right.

We’ve checked into , a luxury B&B tucked away just outside Haslemere, and it’s a little gem.

Think beautiful Arts and Crafts interiors, 2.5 acres of gardens, a terrace overlooking the South Downs and hosts Duncan and Craig, who have hospitality down to a fine art. There’s a glass of fizz on arrival, G&Ts made with Silent Pool gin, delicious home-cooked dinners and a breakfast tailored to you. And the beds? Cloud-like doesn’t even begin to cover it. 😍

Then there’s Hudson, the resident Great Dane, who you might recognise as David Bow-Wowie from Rivals. He’s every bit as gorgeous in real life.

With just four bedrooms, it’s an intimate, grown-up escape with boutique hotel comforts and the personal touches that make all the difference. You can even book the whole house for exclusive use.

Fancy a little luxury? Read our full review of Kingsley House on Muddy Surrey.
