West Clandon is a village in Surrey. It is within 2 miles (3 km) of the M25 and the A3. It is served by Clandon railway station which runs stopping services via Cobham and Stoke D'Abernon as well as via Epsom to London Waterloo in one direction, and to Guildford station in the other. Woking station station is nearby (although there is no direct rail link) and offers many more destinations and a fast service to London.
Clandon Park, a Palladian mansion is in the village.
West Clandon is administered by Guildford Borough Council and Surrey County Council. Its parliamentary constituency is Mole Valley and the current MP is Paul Beresford, a Conservative.
There are no longer any shops in the village, aside from the Clandon Park gift shop and the Garden Centre. There are two pubs in the village and very little else. It is very peaceful, with low crime and a high middle-class retired population.
