The Home Counties are the suburban and exurban areas which surround Greater London.
A market town is a fairly large town that usually has a vibrant commercial High Street and a rail link to London.|||Wendover (Buckinghamshire), Henley on Thames (Oxfordshire). Petersfield (Hampshire), Arundel
(West Sussex). Godalming (Surrey)|||Out of the large towns I also thought of Tunbridge Wells as the best example, elegant because of the dominance of spa town inspired 18th-19th century building design and naturally beautiful because of the Tunbridge Wells Common area next to the old town.
In terms of much smaller towns I thought of West Malling (Kent) and Cuckfield (Sussex) because of the imposing historic architecture within them and the impact of surrounding countryside. Actually a lot of places would satisfy your description by varying degrees|||I wouldn't call it strictly a market town but Tunbridge Wells is pretty elegant.
