The Stag on the River

Neatly trimmed creepers frame the 17th-century brick frontage of the Stag on the River like a hipster moustache, but the interior is a more mature undertaking. Rooms with angles created by old wooden beams have been tastefully revamped with geometric drapes, piles of plump cushions and beautiful wallpaper. Framed by a curve of the River Wey, it’s close to the A3 but far enough away for a peaceful slumber.
