East Horsely - will look. Had a look at Sunningdale a few years ago but the train commute door to door would have been too much as the line isnt fast enough. Had a look in and around Woking but what a dump of a centre

Will check out this place though and some of the other places mentioned - Oxford sounds interesting and some of the villages around it cant be that expensive as its so far from London - not sure how long the Train would take into London from Oxford or one of the peripheral stations on the Oxford line?
My business partner lives in Stadhampton, Oxford and commutes in to Marylebone. That is mid way between Didcot (45 mins to Paddington) and Haddenham (40 mins to Marylebone). Prices are reasonable on the Chiltern line (Haddenham) too.
