Totally agree with Cupcake on the New Forest and York as options

If you like the outdoors and walking/hiking head to the South Downs for some of the most stunning English scenery [Visit South Downs|Home](http://www.visitsouthdowns.com/)

nearest stations would be Lewes, Eastbourne and Brighton… all about an hour from Victoria. But driving or a bus tour would be preferable

Hampton Court is in Zone 6 so you can use your Oyster card to get there. Trains go from Waterloo and take 35 mins -HC is the end of the line so no worries re missing your stop. You can walk or cycle along the river from HC back to Kingston and then Richmond if you want and then take the train back from there.

Windsor - regular suburban train from Waterloo (Windsor and Eton Riverside station) or Paddington (Windsor and Eton Central). Both take about an hour and both Windsor stations are in the town center.

Canterbury trains go from Victoria or Charing Cross and take 1.5 hours.

Suggest you choose a nice bright sunny day for out of London trips. It all looks much better in the sun!
