About Earlswood
Where to stay in Earlswood
Not every neighbourhood fits every trip — here's what each one is good for.
Earlswood station puts the Brighton Main Line at the door, and that is the practical reason to stay on this side of Redhill rather than in the town centre itself. Lodging inside Earlswood is scarce. Most of the stock sits in Redhill proper, a short run up the road, while Horley lies the other way down the A23 with the Common and its two lakes between the suburb and Reigate.
About Earlswood
What are the main landmarks in Earlswood?
Four buildings carry the record. St John's, Redhill and Saint Matthew's Church cover the church side, while Meadvale Hall and Fengates House make up the rest of a list that runs to four names in total. Earlswood Common is the counterweight.
It is a local nature reserve, and it does more to define the suburb than any single building on that list.
What is the history of Earlswood?
Surrey is the county here. The suburb sits on the A23 between Redhill and Horley, and the Brighton Main Line cuts through it, with Royal Earlswood Park, the East Surrey Hospital and Whitebushes taking the ground east of the tracks. Earlswood Common holds the gap toward the southern outskirts of Reigate, and its two lakes and picnic areas stay outside the built suburb.
Where is Earlswood?
The A23 passes through Earlswood. It runs between Redhill and Horley, and east of the line sit Royal Earlswood Park, the East Surrey Hospital and Whitebushes.
