"It is believed that the name Guildford is comes from guild meaning "gold", rather than a trade guild, after a ford of golden sand that was dredged in 1760 just south of the town."

The Percy Arms in Chilworth is amazing.

The fantastic countryside is on your doorstep, the community is friendly and welcoming, the infant and junior schools are highly thought of (and very good - my children are there), plus Guildford is only a short journey over the hills less than 10 mins away. Best of both worlds!
