Wonderful!
4.9/5 -

Beautiful property! Couldn't have asked for a better place to stay.
The house and grounds were unbelievable. No matter where you stand on the property there is an amazing view of Betchworth and Reigate. The house is under a half mile walk from the Betchworth train station which provides easy access to Reigate center (shopping, delicious pubs, grocery stores) and Gatwick Airport. Prior to the trip the owners provided a detailed description of everything we could need to know about their home, it was beyond helpful. They were also responsive to questions both before and during our stay.
My friends and I were traveling for a wedding and an majority of our time was consumed with festivities. We hope to return to have the opportunity to truly enjoy all the property and area has to offer!
Beautiful cottage. Everything you needed for a lovely stay. From kitchen equipment to cleaning produ
The pictures don't do the property justice. The grounds appear to be manicured by a professional but there is still plenty of natural woodland to explore. The swimming pool is the icing on the cake.
Wonderfully appointed house with convenient location and stunning views of the North Downs
Loved Lynchets! We used this house for our base camp for family reunions in the Surrey/Sussex and London areas.
Extremely convenient location for Gatwick, M25 (but not too close!), rail into London and major arteries to the South East.
Classic English countryside location with stunning views of the North Downs. Close to the North Downs way -- excellent for hiking!
Very well appointed house: kitchen is great (we cooked 4 times during our stay) and plenty of beds/bedrooms with updated bathrooms/showers. Excellent for a family of 6-10 with kids (also a very fun attic room for the kiddos).
Satellite TV and lots of great reading material and games.
The swimming pool annex is fabulous! We looked forward to relaxing in the indoor pool each evening while the sun went down. Great patio area to enjoy drinks with a wonderful view of the Surrey countryside.
Close to the village of Betchworth and quick 5-10 minute drive to Dorking or Reigate, so lots of great shopping at your doorstep! Also some great restaurants/pubs nearby.
Owner was very responsive and helpful!
We'll be coming back!!
Perfect for our Ruby Wedding celebration with close family.
We loved the house and garden. The swimming pool was fantastic. The weather was not great but that did not spoil our weekend.
a perfect house for a group or extended fMily
This is a lovely place for friends and family. The grounds and surroundings are beautiful and the house is comfortable.
Great property and location with clean well looked after, heated pool
Beautiful spacious house with amazing views and lots of nearby footpaths for walkers. Wifi not always good but owners did everything possible to help and am sure this will be rectified. . A lovely pool house with heated pool and more views over the well kept grounds. owner was very responsive and highly recommend this stunning house.

Amazing Hiking right on Old Pilgrims Way, the property was once owned by the artist John Piper and his studio is still located behind the house with views for miles; The house faces southward and on a clear day you can see the ocean from the studio.
