rooted in history, designed for gatheringEvery corner of this property tells a story, and We'd love to share it with you.
Before it became Common Ground Farms, this land was home to Surrey's original premier polo club. The red barn was built as a gathering place—a space where stories were shared, friendships were formed, and community came together.
Today, we're honouring that same spirit. Rooted in agriculture and inspired by the property's rich history, we've thoughtfully restored the barn and surrounding land into a destination for meaningful gatherings and unforgettable experiences.
The setting has evolved, but the intention has always been the same.
