Location

Walton on the Hill is located between the market towns of Epsom and Reigate in Surrey, situated on the North Downs. With its quaint clay-tile roofed cottages, leafy avenues and charming old church buildings, Walton-on-the-Hill combines relaxed living with excellent amenities with the wide range of local shops and services providing all the essentials of everyday life. Walton’s vibrant local atmosphere extends to a choice of friendly gastro-pubs and cafés, while its local Italian, the Spaghetti Tree, is something of an institution.

Communications are excellent, Tadworth Station is only 0.8 miles away with direct services into London Victoria & London Bridge from 50 minutes. Junction 8 of the M25 is four miles to the south giving access to the national motorway network, the international airports of Gatwick and Heathrow and the South Coast.

Sporting and recreational facilities are plentiful with golf at Walton Heath, Kingswood and The RAC Country Club. There is abundant open countryside for walking, cycling, and horse-riding, as well as numerous pubs, restaurants, local theatres, and cinemas that provide ample entertainment options for all.

The village has a delightful range of local shops and restaurants which cater for ‘day to day’ needs and an attractive 12th century church which at one point was attached to the local manor house. The Manor house was reportedly visited by Henry VIII who granted the house to Catherine of Aragon only to take it back after their divorce in 1533.

Schooling in the area is superb with access to many state and independent schools. These include Banstead Preparatory, Chinthurst, Aberdour School, Epsom College, Danes Hill, City of London Freeman’s School, Downsend School and Reigate Grammar.
