This is a tranquil pond located within the Flashes Court Common. It's an important habitat for various species of wildlife including amphibians, birds and aquatic plants. There are lots of connected walking paths here and in nearby Frensham and Hankley Common.

Frensham Little Pond is more tranquil and offers a greater variety of walks and scenery than its nearby neighbour the Frensham Great Pond. Although the circular walk around the Little Pond can become a little busy at weekends there are plenty of other quieter paths to explore!

The trail runs through the estate of Loseley House with great views f the mansion and its grounds. You can visit the house between May and August when it is open to the public. Here you are just a short distance from Guildford but the quiet paths and surroundings make you feel a million miles away.

Bricksbury Hill is a summit located in the Farnham area of Surrey. The area surrounding it is made up of numerous sandy mounds and open woodlands, with a number of small ponds dotted around too. This specific spot offers some beautiful scenery across one of the larger ponds in the area, which has some lovely clean water with a beach-like feel. Unfortunately, you're not able to swim here, but you can still pull up a picnic blanket and relax in the sunshine.

Frensham Little Pond is a glorious place to hike. It is surrounded by pine trees and sandy hills so makes the perfect location for a longer jaunt taking in the local area or a hike round the pond is under 3km so is perfect for families with children or for a shorter, largely flat, hike. There is some sand and it can be quite rooty by the car park. There as been a lake here since the 13th century when the Bishop of Winchester decreed a dam be built. The resulting pond provided fish for when he was staying at nearby Farnham Castle.
