    We have good walks here

    A smaller NT place as it close to us and we don't eat here as NT only offer the same selection of food at all there locations which is a shame.

    Had a great day here for the Coral .. Weather was outstanding ! Plenty of staff so getting food /drinks was a doddle ! Only let down was the sprint course that goes up the middle of the track makes it hard to see the winning line etc .. Actually backed the winner in the last but didn't know id won ! Happy days !
    Still a cracking way to spend a day ! Loved it !

    Having visited Mini Me's countless times over the past 2 years, we love this place. Not the biggest soft play around but just right in size and well equipped. Such friendly staff, we love Terry & Paula always so cheerful and welcoming.

    It was great to be somewhere without dogs. The coffee and cake was good value and the service very friendly and efficient. The toilets are plentiful and very clean. We couldn't find the plants we wanted but the whole retail area is massive and offers something for everyone. Worth the excursion.

    After a hellishly busy morning, but a brilliant early lunch, I required exercise.

    Weather was pretty good, so stopped off at Esher Common, on the way back from Cobham.

    To the uninitiated - a cracking walk starts at West End Esher Common. Loads of free parking along the road near St George’s Church and the Sports Club Pavilion and Bar. The pathway starts near the West End Esher Common sign/board, then leads you in the direction of the main road betwixt Esher and Cobham.

    If one so desires, you can then traverse the main road, and head for Black Pond on the opposite side, which is well worth a visit.

    The pond isn't anything too special but Esher Woods as a whole are one of my favourite places to walk.

    A delightful, historic Church, located behind The Bear pub in Esher.

    Free parking available - behind the Church, per se, but it does have time restrictions on the parking bays, so do be careful, as the local CC are very fond of doling out parking tickets, in extremis!

    The grounds are always well maintained, with a gardener mowing the lawns at least once a fortnight.

    First day of what felt like Summer - excellent temperature of 20 centigrade, just after 4 pm.

    The bench nearest the front and side doors, makes for an excellent sun-trap and place to mull over all manner of things.

    It certainly gave me a chance to ‘look back’ fondly over the ‘lives of others’ after the passing of a dear relative, a family pooch, (since January) and a long-standing friend, on the Friday prior.

    Cathartic and pleasant couple of hours in the later stages of the afternoon.

    Decided to take a sojourn to this venue, after becoming increasingly non enamoured with my own company, on a day-off from work. Furthermore, a DIY video had been circulating at work, with a photo of my head, superimposed on Dale Winton’s body, on a clip from ‘Supermarket Sweep.’ Clearly, certain cretinous colleagues had been jealous of a tan I had acquired during the hot spell.

    But onto this Church.....

    Designed by Edward Maufe, this is considered to be quite an eye catcher, due to its location and proximity to a small lake. When it is lit at night, the main spire looks impressive.

    The architect, Maufe, was also responsible for Guildford Cathedral - ‘riveting’ pop cultural fact - the final scene of the original ‘The Omen’ film, where Gregory Peck tries to ‘put down’ his Satanic Spawn, Damian, was filmed there. I certainly felt the same way about two work colleagues.

    Plenty of parking at the very front of the Church and on the roads around it.

    To the LHS of the main frontage, there is a pathway which leads to a well-maintained Garden of Rest, at the rear.

    There’s a small memorial to those killed in the Wars in the Centre of the small lawn, and a series of tributes and memorials to ‘others’ along some of the Church walls.

    Wayneflete Tower in Esher was built around 1470 by William Wayneflete who was the bishop of Winchester. The tower is located on the banks of the River mole in Esher. It is a historical building that you will want to take many photos of.

    Until this museum closed a year or two ago, it was an excellent local resource with some great exhibits and a pleasure to visit.
    The staff, many of them volunteers, were always helpful and friendly.
    However much of its archive is now available online and small displays can be seen at various locations throughout the borough, including at the Elmbridge Borough Council Offices in Esher.

    My son had a Ringo party for his birthday, 11 children aged 10. The team were amazing, from the older teens on the slope with them (they were brilliant and very polite and responsible), to the people checking us in and helping with finding gloves for those that had forgotten them. And the staff in the terrace bar providing all the food. Exceptional service, polite and helpful, a stark contrast to a party we had a year ago at a different venue/activity. The kids loved the ringos, weather was sunny, we would definitely do this again.
