Discover the delights of Shere as featured in the film ‘The Holiday’
If you have been inspired to visit Shere, the setting for the Hollywood film, ‘The Holiday’ here are some hints and tips to help you make the most of your stay.
The Holiday, starring Kate Winslet, Cameron Diaz, Jude Law and Jack Black is a romantic comedy, featuring two women looking to escape their complicated love lives by house swapping. Cameron Diaz leaves behind a manic life in Los Angeles for a holiday in a quiet Surrey village.
Shere is located in rural Guildford, in the Surrey Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and is said to be one of most beautiful villages in Surrey. With its rather ‘oldy worldy’ feel to it with narrow streets, historic buildings and quaint shops, it was the ideal location to show quintessential England.
