Visit Godalming – an ancient market and coaching town delightfully situated on the picturesque River Wey, where to this day cattle graze on the waterside meadows and canal boats rest up against the wharf.
You will find that the unique and individual shops make Godalming a fine place to visit.
Each season brings the excitement of many special events.
Things to do
Godalming boasts many local, wonderful attractions such as National Trust properties, the town’s sports facilities and historic and cultural places of interest. Local festivals abound and a warm welcome is assured.
Unique, historic and interesting architecture can be found in abundance in the High Street and Church Street along with the many walks in our delightful countryside.
Godalming Museum celebrates the work of Gertrude Jekyll, garden designer for Edwin Lutyens’ many commissions in the area and is a centre of Jekyll excellence. The local history galleries are a must-see and the museum celebrates Jack Phillips, too, the wireless operator on the Titanic. Make sure you visit the blue plaque dedicated to him on the street where he was born in Farncombe Street, Farncombe.
