Parkgate is a small settlement in the district of Mole Valley in Surrey, England. Tucked into the rolling countryside on the edge of the Surrey Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and close to the course of the River Mole, it feels distinctly rural while remaining within easy reach of larger local towns such as Leatherhead and Dorking.
Historically linked to agriculture and the estates that dot the area, Parkgate today combines picturesque cottages and converted farm buildings with a community shaped by conservation and outdoor leisure; many residents commute to London or nearby centres for work, while enjoying walking, cycling and equestrian routes on the surrounding commons and lanes.
