These may be the prettiest gardens in Surrey. I visited and strolled on a lively April day. Don't…read moremiss this if you are in the area.

As villiage halls go East Horsely's hall is a cut above the rest…read more The main hall is of above average size and has a great backstage area. There are also several other smaller rooms. The halls are available for hire individually or as a whole. Kitchen facilities are good with crockery provided (although you must do your own washing up). Toilet's are pleantiful and well-stocked. They've just bought new chairs which are wonderfully comfortable and a world away from your average village hall plastic chair. The halls are cheap to hire which makes them ideal for parties and small groups. Access to the halls is via a keypad entry system when the caretakers are not there - occassionally the code can change without warning so, if you're there at an odd time bring a mobile to phone up to get the new code! Recommended.

All sorts of talent passes through this venue, from small indie bands (I saw Bastille here a year…read morebefore they were signed) to large, more well known ones, of which I cannot think of any examples, so you'll just have to take my word for it. The venue is fairly small inside, but it has a wicked atmosphere. The garden is a very large area but unfortunately closes at half 10. This is because some d*ckheads moved in next door and filled noise complaints (honestly who does that?) and after almost being shutdown, they now have to close the garden early and there's a grumpy security guard who'll tell you to shutup if you're mildly noisy. There's a chinese restaurant attached, which isn't as good as it used to be, but it's useful to be able to order food at the bar. It's now £8 per ticket for smaller bands, so feels a bit pricey, especially seeing as drinks and food are about that too.
