Shere Recreation Ground, Upper Street, Shere, Surrey, GU5 9JF

What3Words – privately.ship.split

Situated between the North Downs Way and the Surrey Hills, Shere is the quintessential English village brimming with history. In recent years, it has been the focus and inspiration for Hollywood’s finest directors in making films such as The Wedding Date and The Holiday.

You can approach Shere from three directions: if you are travelling on the A25 from East to West (from Dorking direction), turn off into Shere onto the Gomshall Road. Drive a few hundred yards past the village hall on your right, and the entrance to the event is just around the bend on the right.

If you are approaching West to East (from the Guildford direction), leave the A25 onto Upper Street. Follow the road down the road down the hill, around the left-hand bend and a couple of hundred yards further down the hill, the entrance is on the left.

If you are approaching from the South (from the Surrey Hills), just drive through the village to the junction and the entrance to the event is on your left, then turn immediate right onto the Shere Recreation Ground.
