Lower field and main house (added by manager 08 Sep 2022)

Spacious pitches at a 260-acre Surrey estate near Cranleigh
A 15-minute drive to Winkworth Arboretum; 40 minutes to the coast
Fishing and social club on site; profits support local charity

A holiday for yourselves, and you get to do good for others at the same time? It’s a win-win situation when you stay at Springbok Campsite, part of a secluded estate on the border of Surrey and West Sussex. The estate is run as a charity that provides accommodation and support for former seafarers, and any profits made by the campsite will be fed back into providing services for the residents. Concerned you may have to sacrifice certain facilities in order to support this worthy cause? Not a bit of it – this is a lovely site that’s part of a 260-acre estate made up of farmland, forest and formal gardens. You’ll be able to take walks around at your leisure, perhaps stopping in at the pretty walled garden or picking up a day pass for some fishing on the one-acre lake. Dog-friendly pitches here are spacious and fuss-free, and have access to basic shower and toilet facilities, plus a camp kitchen/washing-up shack. Guests are also welcome to stop in for a drink at the on-site social club. Barbecue evenings at your pitch are permitted too, if you’d like – there are shops 10 minutes’ drive away in Cranleigh for all the bits you’ll need. (Please note that barbecues must be raised off the ground and disposed of responsibly once they have cooled down.) If a country walk and pub are musts on your rural break, you’ll be pleased to hear that both are on hand – in fact, you could combine both with a stroll to one of the hostelries within a 30/45-minute walk. For other outings nearby you’ll have a choice of heading north to the Surrey Hills, west to the South Downs National Park or south to the coast (about 40 minutes away).

Liked: Lovely small site with the opportunity to use the residents bar in the main house. Lovely to have a chat about their maritime experiences. Was an ideal location for us to attend Guildfordians girls rugby festival

Electric hardstanding and grass pitch

Liked: Very friendly campsite within the springbok estate amenities are fairly basic but he surroundings and the lake more than make up for this bar available within the house do breakfast and Sunday dinner must be booked in advance must also mention the amazing glamping site next door run by two lovely ladies who were kind enough to show us around

Disliked: The notice needs to be at the entrance to the site with clear information as to where we needed to pitch initially we ended up at the lower field were not the first to this by all accounts as no one is about at the weekend

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Thank you so much for the 10/10 review and feedback relating to our amenities. Yes we are really lucky with our wonderful surroundings, I am so glad the glamping ladies helped you too. We are bringing in, some improvements into our upgrade programmes. Best wishes, the Springbok Estate.

Liked: What fabulous little site! Very clean and tidy! And so peaceful! Everyone was friendly, it has lovely walks straight from the campsite. My son particularly enjoyed the fishing and spent most of the day there, and the bailiff who I forgot to get his name was so helpful and keen to help and teach my son about carp fishing it was just fantastic and meant so much to my son who is so keen to learn!

Disliked: Nothing

From the manager: Thank you so much for the 10/10 review we really appreciate the ratings, our staff work hard to keeps it clean and tidy for the campers.

Liked: Great site that is generally quiet apart from the planes from Gatwick. Loved the shower shacks some of the best showers we have had on a campsite. Nice big pitches with plenty of space. Staff were friendly but very much generally left guests to their own devices. Loved walking around the estate as well around the gardens.

Disliked: Nothing

Electric hardstanding and grass pitch

Liked: Nice site, the grey showers were great! Nice area to walk around.

Disliked: Unfortunately it seems that some Sunday morning s they have pre arranged clay shooting, which is on part of the estate. This is very noisy and stressful and goes on for three 3hrs. Definitely won’t be coming on Sunday s again. This should have been clearly mentioned before hand, small children and dogs might be very sensitive to the noise.

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Thank you very much for your comments and lovely photos. We are glad you enjoyed the site walks and amenities. The Clay Pigeon shooting is held fortnightly, and is noted on the welcome email. My apologises to you though. Best wishes, the Springbok Estate.

Local attractions

If you like a good garden visit on your break, you’ve come to the right spot – it won’t take long at all to reach the likes of the National Trust gardens at 121-acre Winkworth Arboretum (15 minutes’ drive) and Nymans (35 minutes), with woodlands, a lake and natural play areas. The colourful Ramster Gardens (15 minutes) and pretty Leonardslee Lakes & Gardens (35 minutes) are certainly worth adding to the list too. If you’ve brought the kids along, a trip to Fishers Farm Park (15 minutes) may well be on the cards for tractor rides, mini golf, treetop trails, pony rides and lots of animals to meet (plus indoor play areas in case of dodgy weather). You might also like to see the big birds at Surrey Hills Falconry (20 minutes) or hit the beach in Worthing (40 minutes). No kids in your party? A day at Denbies Wine Estate (35 minutes) might appeal instead then – you can sign up for tours and tastings here, and there’s a lovely restaurant too.
