Weybridge /ˈweɪbrɪdʒ/ is a town by the River Wey in the Elmbridge district of Surrey. It is bounded to the north by the River Thames at the mouth of the Wey, from which it gets its name. It is an outlying suburban town within the Greater London Urban Area, situated 7 miles (11 km) northeast of Woking and 16 miles (25 km) southwest of central London. Real estate prices are well above the national average: as of 2008, six of the ten most expensive streets in South East England (defined as the official government region, which excludes Greater London) were in Weybridge.

The birthplace of British motorsport and aviation.
I visited the Brooklands Museum a few weeks back for the very first time. The primary reason for my visit was to see The Concorde however I was also looking forward to seeing the other aircraft that are on display, mostly the VC-10, Vickers Viscount and BAC-111.
I must say, apart from Concorde, I was very disappointed in the state of these aircraft. The VC-10 in particular has fallen into a shocking state of disrepair (inside and out) and the whole area that houses these airplanes looks like a junk yard. There is literally all kinds of junk laying about and around the perimeter of the property. Very unprofessional looking. As a huge fan of commercial aviation I found this very disappointing.
The Concorde, although not nearly has neglected as the rest of the aircraft, I must admit was also a bit of a let down. I have visited a number of other Concorde's at various museum's and exhibits and this was the least impressive exhibition of the airplane. I really didn't like how they have turned half of the interior into some sort of museum itself, with all the cabin fixings taken away and replaced by a windowless section of little displays of memorabilia and photos. These things should have been housed elsewhere in my opinion. It takes away from the experience of actually being on board one of the worlds most famous aircraft.
I did quite enjoy the The London Bus Museum on site. This section was very well looked after and the buses were all in immaculate condition.

Topgolf is the premier golf entertainment complex where the competition of sport meets your favourite local bar. You can challenge your friends and family to addictive point-scoring golf games that anyone from the hopeful pro golfer to your neighbour's 7-year-old can play all year-round. Just picture a 240-yard outfield with dartboard-like targets in the ground. The closer to the centre or "bull's-eye" you get and the further you hit your microchipped balls, the more points you get. Score even bigger with Topgolf's extensive food and drink menu that is sure to impress even the pickiest foodies. It's not golf - it's Topgolf.
Having been to TopGolf numerous times, I was looking at improving and progressing at golf. I enquired about lessons and was introduced to Max, one of the coaches working there.
We discussed goals and where I saw my game going, and thanks to him, my game has improved immeasurably – having lessons almost once a week for the last year or so. This included tackling the academy course on site, to gain some course experience.
In all, its a great informal place to learn the game – regardless of how serious you plan on taking it. In a group, its a laugh, but if you are playing solo there is a really challenge and reward in besting your high score.

To see 'Early Man' with two grandchildren. As ever, the young staff cheerful and helpful and will deliver food and drink to the seats, which can save some time and juggling. Seats in both screens are comfortable (with cushions and some footrests) with a mixture of two-seaters and singles (plus my favourite three-seater in Screen 1 which ideal when you have two children in tow). The bar is adequate with Seating for around around 15 and popcorn etc. on offer and a few free nibbles often to be found. My Squeeze and I often use the cinema and always enjoy the vibe and the friendly staff. Will keep returning!

We have been visiting the Great Cockcrow Railway every summer for many years. It makes a great afternoon outing which is fairly inexpensive. There are two routes, the Red route and the Green route and we usually buy a double ticket and ride both. Of...MoreIce cream between rides should be compulsory, it is SO yummy! Honey and Stem Ginger is my current favourite! You are right about the bluebells, they are beautiful. It's just a pity they don't last longer.

Small but beautiful tranquil Gardens close to the Thames and the village orchard, nice coffee and cake shop with the Millenium Tapestry and art gallery alongside.
Sit in the quiet Sunshine a few minutes and the garden birds, squirrels and even the parakeets become your friend. A real gem and with well maintained flower Gardens all year round

This was booked for my 11 year old son's birthday. It was a fantastic couple of hours and I cannot speak highly enough of the staff and how we were looked after from the initial booking to the minute we arrived and until we left....MoreThanks for the five star review. We are really pleased that the boys enjoyed their racing and that you found the team so helpful. We look forward to welcoming you back to Daytona Sandown Park soon.

Flagship garden of the RHS, Wisley captures the imagination with richly planted borders, luscious rose Gardens and a state-of-the-art Glasshouse.
After some major changes and construction since October 2015, the place has increasingly become a tourist trap. It used to be such a beautiful place of man-made nature for relaxing peaceful strolls. Now the management is cold and treats visitors like cash cows. It is also always overly crowded, even on a winter weekday. No longer a place for a tranquil and rejuvenating time to reconnect with nature. Very sad and disappointed.

We stumbled across this park whilst looking for parking around Hampton Court Palace. We were so surprised to see how lovely it was - with an attractive lake/statue and so many deer. We had a lovely walk despite it being muddy - we didn't see it all by any means but will be back when the weather is better.

My son went to this place as part of a birthday event. He thought it was amazing . A full day out starting in theory from 9.30 to about 1630 , running through several maps shooting at opposing teams. His only negative comment was that you needed to purchase extra paintballs. Extra clothing is provided , overalls plus face masks ( which mist up quite often apparently might be worth bring your own ) bring your own boots and change of footwear for the ride home. Ages are from 10yrs and above. Had no id a that you could paintball below the age of 15 in this country, will take the whole family next time wife and three kids, for some reason the wife loves to shoot me accidentally quite often
