Dining- Guildford High Street

The hotel is actually on the high Street and therefore has at least 20 restaurants to choose from within 2 minutes walk. We can recommend some fantastic eateries, from Loch Fine fish restaurant, Cote for traditional French, the Thai Terrace an award winning oriental…. Infact there are very few flavours that are not walkable to. And of course, the real jewel being that neither of you have to drive they are all so close!

Nightclubs

Where do I start! Guildford has at least 5 nightclubs within walking distance of The Angel. The Casino Nightclub is Surrey’s premier nightclub with 3 bars,  multiple different types of music and is open until very late with capacity for 1000+ people.
Ask at reception, we are often able to get our guests VIP entrance to this and other clubs.

Guildford boat house

Fancy taking a trip down the stunning River Wey in a traditional English rowing boat- simple, 5 minutes walk from the hotel. Honestly, there is nothing more beautifull than taking a punt on the River Wey and for £10 per hour, it is an exceptional way to wile away the afternoon. Of course, just ask reception for the Chilled Champagne and glasses, the perfect accompaniment! www.guildfordboats.co.uk/

Guildford Castle

A minutes walk from The Angel can be found Guildford Castle which started out as a Norman motte and bailey castle, built soon after 1066. It is beautifully planted with stunning borders in the summer and is a lovely place to take a picnic. Which of course can be ordered from the front desk! www.castlexplorer.co.uk/england/guildford/guildford_photos.php

Clandon House

The Venetian architect Giacomo Leoni built Clandon Park in the Early 1730's 
for the 2nd Lord Onslow. Since being presented to the National Trust, the Mansion has been extensively restored and redecorated. A stunning afternoon out, well worth the visit. www.clandonpark.co.uk/about.htm
