luxury houses with pool for rent Surrey, United Kingdom

Kiln Meadow is set behind electric gates and approached via a gravel driveway. The five-bedroom house has been comprehensively refurbished and combines the character of a traditional Surrey home with contemporary interiors, set within landscaped grounds that include a swimming pool, tennis court and a separate entertaining pavilion. The principal kitchen, dining and family room extends to over 30 ft in length, lit by large rooflights and full-height glazing, and opens directly onto the terrace and gardens. The kitchen is built around a substantial island with breakfast seating, with a separate utility and boot room accessed through its own external entrance. The dining room enjoys garden views and is suited to more formal occasions, while the reception room is centred around an exposed brick fireplace. A separate family room and study offer additional space for relaxing or working from home. The first floor is arranged around a galleried landing. The principal suite includes a dressing room, an ensuite bathroom and access to a private balcony overlooking the grounds. Four further double bedrooms are arranged on this floor, each with an ensuite bathroom; one of these bathrooms is located on the second floor, which also provides eaves storage. The grounds are arranged for both recreation and entertaining, with lawns surrounding the house and terraces providing several seating areas connected to the principal living spaces. The heated swimming pool is accompanied by a pool house with a bar and entertaining room, along with changing facilities and a plant room. A full-size tennis court completes the leisure facilities. The property also includes an attached garage, a substantial detached garage, gated parking for numerous vehicles and a separate one-bedroom annexe. Kiln Meadow is situated on Shellwood Road, in a semi-rural setting within easy reach of Reigate. The town offers independent boutiques, cafés, restaurants and supermarkets, together with well-regarded state and independent schools. Reigate station provides regular services to London Victoria and London Bridge, and the M25 provides access to Gatwick Airport, Heathrow Airport and the wider motorway network. The surrounding Surrey Hills National Landscape offers walking, cycling and riding routes nearby.

Set within approximately 28.5 acres of gardens and parkland, this beautiful family home has long views that stretch across lawns and mature trees. The house itself unfolds with a pleasing sense of scale and seclusion; handsome and quietly imposing from the outside, it has been carefully renovated within, balancing period character with warmth, colour and comfort. Original fireplaces, panelled walls and detailed finishes sit alongside updated bathrooms and thoughtfully considered family spaces. A stained-glass front door opens to a dramatic reception hall with parquet flooring, wall panelling and a fireplace that immediately sets the tone. From here, the principal reception spaces branch out in generous succession. Three south-west-facing reception rooms have excellent natural light and broad views over the grounds, with the sitting room and family room opening directly onto the garden. These are beautifully proportioned rooms, each one with its own mood and perspective. Across the hall, the formal dining room is perfect for entertaining, while the kitchen and breakfast room is more relaxed. Fitted with warm white Smallbone cabinetry, a pantry and a handcrafted ILVE Majestic Milano stove, it lends itself easily to family suppers and weekends hosting guests. Beyond are the practical rooms that make a house of this scale work so well: a laundry room, cloakroom, plant room and a family room with its own kitchenette. The bedroom accommodation is arranged over the upper floors and is notably versatile. The principal suite is a particularly lovely arrangement, with a dressing room, an impressive ensuite bathroom and access to two roof terraces. Four further double bedrooms are also ensuite, while the remaining bedrooms are served by additional bath and shower rooms. In total, the house offers ten bedrooms, allowing ample space for family life, guests and staff. The layout is made all the more appealing by the additional accommodation. There is a one-bedroom staff flat as well as a separate one-bedroom annexe, giving the property an unusual degree of flexibility for multigenerational living, live-in help or visiting guests. A garage and workshop add yet more practicality. Throughout the house, the decorative scheme is confident and considered. Wall coverings by Andrew Martin, Boråstapeter and Lewis & Wood bring texture and character, while marble and wood fireplaces anchor the principal rooms. The bathrooms have been stylishly updated, and the principal ensuite, in particular, feels quietly luxurious. There is an easy sense of continuity between the formal rooms, the family spaces and the grounds beyond. Outside, the setting is one of the property’s great assets. The gardens and land extend to approximately 28.5 acres, with sweeping lawns, mature planting and wooded sections that give the house both beauty and privacy. There is a swimming pool, expansive terracing and plenty of space. From many of the principal rooms, the outlook is uninterrupted and wonderfully green. Priors Hatch Lane sits in a particularly attractive pocket of the Surrey Hills, where rolling countryside and handsome villages meet easy access to London. Ancient woodland, walking routes and open views shape the landscape, while the historic market towns of Godalming and Guildford are both nearby, offering a wide range of independent shops, restaurants, schools and mainline rail connections to the capital. The surrounding area has long appealed to those seeking a country house with genuine acreage, privacy and beauty, without feeling remote. Abbotswood captures that balance beautifully.
