Cobham is nice. The nearest big town is Woking, which has cheaper housing and a fairly fast train service to Central London. Woking has a decent enough range of shops, a cinema and a theatre.

Traffic in the area can be fairly heavy, so I would recommend living as close to work as possible. By metro do you mean underground? It is way too far out for that, but there are many train stations in the area.

Overall it is a good area, although fairly expensive. Not a bad place to live or bring up children.

Good luck with your move. Let me know if you'd like some info on places to see and visit in the area.
