Quote from Current Owners
We decided to move to this beautiful part of Surrey following the completion of the Hindhead tunnel.Following an extensive search we were delighted to stumble across Torlundy - with its characterful design and lovely family friendly feel, plus a pool, mature gardens and magnificent reception room made for fantastic summer parties and cosy winters. Torlundy to us is very special, not only because of its location and design, but its generous size without grounds too large to maintain. As you turn off Wood Road onto what feels like a country path, you instantly know you are in a relaxing place. As you turn into the gates of Torlundy, you go from work mode to rest mode in a heartbeat, a true feeling of tranquility everyone would wish for when trying to find the perfect home.
