My wife and I were trail-riding around Leith Hill one Sunday last summer and we came across Coldharbour CC halfway up the hill, and we stopped and watched a few over. Tiny wee ground, just lovely.

The scene that covid-dreams are made of!

My usual route up to/from Cambridge takes me through the outfield of a cricket pitch.

This little club is right 'up' there in terms of location. The view behind you is lovely. An afternoon on the veranda of that club house must be pretty much perfect. Also, if you live in Dorking you can ride down the Summer Lightning Trail all the way home. There are road and gravel bike alternatives to suit your disposition too.
One of the things that really makes a small ground IMO is the ones with no road noise. This must be one of the best for that in South East too. I have a hankering to move to Dorking for the reasons outlined here and this club will be top of my list. Hope its not exclusive to coldharbourians!

So much this! Riding out when it's still too hot, very sweaty, many waters and cokes required on arrival. Change into a dry shirt, sit in the shade and move onto the beers. Watch 3 hours of tumultuous, occasionally slapstick but thoroughly competitive cricket. Ride home in the cool of the night, much slower, tunes in one ear, singing along and grinning like an idiot... this is the stuff getting me through this current situation....
