Recently named as the Best Place to live in the South East 2021[1], the Surrey Hills is a collection of picturesque English villages that combine wooded hills, flower-rich grasslands, traditional British pubs and independent boutiques. For buyers seeking a place to call home within this idyllic landscape, the historical market town of Godalming is a must see. Positioned just 30 miles or a 50-minute train journey from London, homeowners here perfectly balance rural living with the hustle and bustle of the UKs capital. Centrally located, Amber Lodge by Shanly Homes is a collection of spacious apartments that are within walking distance of the town and its amenities.
Greg Kaye, Head of Sales at Shanly Homes comments: “Amber Lodge is a fantastic collection of apartments. Thanks to its convenient location, buyers are able to walk into town in under five minutes, whilst river and woodland walks are all easily reachable. Travel connections from Godalming are enviable, with residents able to reach Guildford in under ten minutes and London in under an hour.
