I lived in the area many years ago so this may be out of date but Frensham Ponds was a good site - especially for Dartford Warbler on the heath around the Ponds. As mentioned on another thread - just look for Stonechats and Dartfords will turn up.

Thursley Common is a bit further away but can also be productive for the usual southern heathland birds.

Selborne (of Gilbert White fame) is not far although it's primarily good for the more common woodland species.

No doubt others will be able to give you better info.
