I'd been looking in the Surrey Hills area, but my girlfriend objects due to "all the drivers being cunts in Surrey", and a lack of the kind of lanes that Kent has. I looked at Kent, and golly - in-house Weatherspoons style bars, multiple hot-tubs in the garden. Kent is livelier than I had thought.
I'm now thinking about either the South Downs or Ashdown Forest - I'd like a railway station with fast access to London as one of the tests I have (which several places I've looked at in London have failed - is the ability to be in Covent Garden using nothing but trains as transport in an hour and a half from my doorstep.
