In addition to the benefits of its location within an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and the South Downs National Park, Marley Common has the significant advantage of being just three miles from Haslemere, which sits on the border of Surrey, Hampshire and West Sussex and is one of the most popular market towns due to it's accessibility, excellent schools and mainline train station.

Haslemere town centre offers a good selection of local shopping in addition to banks, restaurants, pubs, schools, churches and its own Museum. A more extensive range of shopping, leisure and cultural amenities is available at Guildford or Chichester. The A286 provides a link from Haslemere to Chichester and the south coast. The Hindhead Tunnel, which opened in 2011, has dramatically reduced the journey time to London by car along the A3.   Recreational activities within reach include golf at a number of local clubs; Polo at Cowdray; racing and flying at Goodwood and sailing at Chichester Harbour. The surrounding countryside which includes the Devils Punchbowl and Blackdown offer ample scope for walking and riding.
