A stunning market town, Farnham is filled with charm and lives life to the pace of a slower beat. Farnham Castle is one of the most popular tourist attractions in Farnham, a marvel with centuries of history, along with the arts quarter of Farnham Maltings which hosts a variety of events, theatres and studios. Sitting around 35 miles outside of London, Farnham offers London's residents a chance to escape city life, and those who want to reside in a countryside setting that isn't too far away from the big smoke. Lots of independent stores and boutiques line the streets, and you'll always find a handmade gift or interesting craft piece here. Some of the top attractions in Farnham, other than the castle and arts centre, include a trip to Birdworld, and some time spent at the beauty of Waverley Abbey's ruins.
