These nearby towns provide a broad range of retail, dining, and leisure facilities, along with well-regarded schools and transport links.

Brook is well connected via the A3, offering easy access to Guildford (approximately 9 miles/14.5 km to the north) and Portsmouth (approximately 30 miles/48 km to the south).
