This beautiful village is located just 23 minutes from London and is said to be one of the hardest to pronounce or spell.<\/p>\n

Pyrford in Surrey is on the outskirts of Woking, with trains to London Waterloo taking just 23 minutes.<\/p>\n

As a result, the village is home to hundreds of commuters who are looking for a slower pace of life outside of the city.<\/p>\n

Being spelt Pyrford you would imagine it was pronounced Peer-Ford. However, it’s actually pronounced as Purr-Ford.<\/p>\n

The name apparently comes from the Old English combined term of ‘Pyrianford’. This translates to roughly ‘pear tree ford’, reports MyLondon.<\/p>\n

The small village is home to a selection of shops and cafes, with tourists claiming the butchers had “the best pork in the country”.<\/p>\n

There are also numerous bakeries where you can grab a coffee and pastry and walk along the beautiful canal that passes through the quiet village.<\/p>\n

According to\u00a0Rightmove, the overall average price of properties was \u00a3731,631 over the last year. The majority of those sales were for detached properties which went for a hefty average price of \u00a31,128,927.<\/p>\n

There are many golf clubs that surround the neighbourhood so if you’re a keen putter then this may be the neighbourhood for you.<\/p>\n

Pyrford is also located on the banks of the River Wey. This means there are loads of pretty waterside walks, but also longer ones that the true ramblers can enjoy.<\/p>\n

There’s one walk along the Wey Canal which has a lot of delightful views of the locks, bridges and colourful canal boats.<\/p>\n

For other outings, there’s always RHS Wisley which is a short drive away.<\/p>\n

It’s great to explore and is open throughout the year. It’s an award-winning attraction packed with horticultural inspiration, and places to eat and drink, making it a lovely place to take all the family.<\/p>\n
