5. Pyrford Lock

Reviewed By Mb7400 - London, United Kingdom
After working from home, in the morning, I required food from a supermarket in nearby Cobham (to concoct a superb Prawn, Broad Bean, Brussel Sprout and Paneer Phall Curry), so I thought I would take my daily hour exercise here. Last time I was here, was unquestionably 1992, as myself and school mates used to drink, occasionally, at the Anchor Pub - albeit, it now felt like 1892. As you come off the A3 to get to the Lock, you bypass the famous Wisley Gardens, followed by the very quaint Wisley Village, per se, before arrival. The only negative? There is a Sewage Treatment works which does, sadly, put a slight downer on things. The Lock area itself, is picturesque - a beautiful Weeping Willow tree hangs, majestically, on one side. Ducks, Grebes and Mallards can be found swimming around, in large numbers, near the Lock, and there are also a large number of Canal boats, in one singular phalanx on the opposite side to the main path. The area is peaceful and tranquil - a golf course lies on one side; on the other some woods and fields. Overall a very pleasant area to visit.

There are not that many shops, but those that are there are so friendly and welcoming. The butchers are superb the best pork ever to pass our lips, amazing produce and an assortment of quality pies, bacon, you name it they have it. Attentive and friendly staff in Co-op, Nails by Emily a new nail bar, where you are treated with a warm and friendly greeting and leave with beautiful nails. The bakers again, nice sandwiches and coffee on a nice day you can sit outside watch Pyrford go by!

I always sit in the Upper Circle at the back in the cheapest seats - great unobstructed view, comfy seats with plenty of leg room. There are quite a few steps to get up there but they’re not steep & there’s a handrail. Quick service at the bar, prices as you would expect for a theatre. Swan Lake was fantastic as you would expect of a Matthew Bourne production! Best part - tickets were less than £20!!!

Ideal spot for some free range dog walking and relaxation. Yes you can hear the traffic from the roads but you can ignore that and concentrate on the beautiful nature and lovely trails. Cafe an added bonus. Highly recommended for dog walkers for stress free off lead time. Very enjoyable Sunday morning x

We had an excellent visit to this amazing building and workplace. We were met by an efficient and very friendly receptionist. Then taken on a tour by someone who clearly loves what she does and it was a real eye opener. This place is really worth a visit, to see what it offers and does is fantastic. Thank you to everyone involved. ????
