There’s a lot to love about West Molesey. This idyllic, picturesque and gloriously green spot in Elmbridge may be tucked away, but it has fantastic local connections – and there’s plenty to see and do in the local area. Locals and visitors alike flock to see the magnificent Hampton Court Palace, but there’s also a great choice of cafes, restaurants, boutiques, pubs and antiques shops available right on the high street.
It’s a sought after area for property purchases and is particularly popular with families, thanks to great schools and lots of things to do with kids nearby. If you’re moving in the area, you might well need temporary or long-term storage until you get settled.
Another thing to know about West Molesey is that it’s a fantastic spot for sports and outdoor activities, with most of the action centred either on the super popular Molesey Boat Club on the Thames. If you have a boat to store for the winter or other sporting equipment in need of a temporary home, self-storage could be just the ticket.
