West Horsley is a compact village in the borough of Guildford, set in the rolling countryside of Surrey, England. Located a few miles south‑east of Guildford, it sits amid farmland and woodlands on the edge of the Surrey Hills and is popular with walkers; the nearby Horsley station gives convenient rail links into Guildford and London.
The village combines a conservation feel of cottages and lanes with an active community life; it is best known for the historic manor West Horsley Place, which has medieval and Tudor roots and hosts cultural events. Traditionally agricultural with strong equestrian links, today West Horsley is largely an affluent commuter settlement that retains a sense of local history and seasonal village activities.
