Addlestone (/ˈædəlstən/ or /ædəlstn/) is the administrative town of the borough of Runnymede in the county of Surrey, England. The town lies just within the M25 motorway. Addlestone is home to an ancient oak named The Crouch Oak and is centred 18.6 miles (29.9 km) southwest of London. Junction 11 of the M25 motorway serves the roads local to Addlestone and Chertsey, the adjoining town in which it was historically included. Addlestone has its own railway station on the Chertsey Branch Line, four principal bus services and is home to the post-junior parts of St George's College.

Addlestone is a large village which owing to its size is generally referred to as a town, 18.6 miles (29.9 km) southwest of London and 9.8 miles (15.8 km) north-by-northeast of the county town, Guildford; the town constitutes the administrative centre of the borough of Runnymede of which it is the largest settlement.

Narrow green buffers separate the town of Weybridge and town of Chertsey and a larger green buffer including a farm, M25 and a golf course separates the village of Ottershaw. No fixed southern boundary with New Haw exists which has had signs at various points but not on all approaches
