  • Prettily landscaped park within easy reach of major travel hubs

  • Communal firepit in the centre of the site for guests' use
Woof. That’s your dog telling you to book a long, long Lingfield stay: the pitches at family-run Long Acres Caravan and Camping Park are perfectly pet-friendly (though there is a small extra fee for man’s best friend) – and there are lots of options for walkies in the surrounding Surrey countryside too. Whether using Long Acres to be walked by the dog or as a base to see the attractions of Surrey, human campers are also in for a treat at this friendly well-maintained park: there’s a well-stocked tourist information kiosk, firepits to hire, and three spotless centrally heated toilet and shower blocks. For food, Lingfield village – with its shops, pubs, restaurants, takeaways and supermarkets – is a mile away. There's a communal firepit in the centre of the site available for everyone to use: wood can be bought for a small charge.

What customers say

This campsite is praised for its spacious pitches, very clean and modern toilet/shower facilities, and friendly, helpful staff. The location is noted as good for local walks and attractions. However, a significant drawback for many is the constant, low-flying aircraft noise due to its position under the Gatwick flight path. Some also mentioned paying for showers and a lack of a central shop.

Electric grass pitch

Liked Very beautiful and spacious pitches. Toilettes were clean. Allows self-check in in case you arrive late.

Disliked It's near the airport, so expect lots of plane takeoff noise. The opening hours of the reception differ each day: very confusing. Showers require coins to operate. No way to pay by card. With no reception open and no cash you can't shower. Come on, it's 2025 guys, that's ridiculous.

Electric grass pitch

Liked The openness of the pitch, friendly staff. Clean showers, didn't mind paying 50p as they were hot and 12 minutes is plenty of time. We didn't read the map well so for the first 2 nights we walked all the way down to near reception for the toilets until we found the middle block! 😂. Really close to Hever Castle well worth a visit .

Disliked Nothing really would visit again if we were coming up that area again.

Non-electric grass pitch

Liked Lovely campsite, we had a nice size pitch as we didn't need hook up. Showers are 50p but nice and hot.
Loved watching the aircraft flying overhead.We were only going to stop one night as we were travelling up the east coast but booked an extra night

Disliked Not alot of shade in middle of field, not a problem for us as we have a sun canopy

Local attractions

Don’t lose your head with the huge range of historical highlights in the area, starting with 13th-century Hever Castle (15 minutes' drive), the childhood home of Anne Boleyn (boo to Henry Eighth) and with award-winning gardens, water maze with a mind of its own and what will probably be the fave of the kids – a 13th-century gatehouse with historical instruments of execution and torture. Standen (15 minutes), a National Trust property at nearby East Grinstead, has a hillside setting around an arts and crafts house with work by William Morris. Gardens more your thing? Wander around the world woodlands at Wakehurst (20 minutes), managed by the Royal Gardens at Kew and the setting for much of Kenneth Branagh’s adaptation of As You Like It, or take a look at Wisley (35 minutes), the flagship garden of the Royal Horticultural Society. Horses? You’ll like Lingfield Park Racecourse, one of only five all-weather racecourses in the country, with race meetings all year round. Or how about other types of beasties – Surrey is stuffed with animal parks, wildlife centres and farms: Lingfield’s British Wildlife Centre (five minutes) with 40 native species, Farnham’s Birdworld (an hour) and the farm park Hobbledown (35 minutes) for starters – or the zoo and Sea Life Centre at Chessington World of Adventures (35 minutes). Not that a visit to the racecourse coincides with this, but if you’re looking for free things to do around Long Acres and in Surrey, again the area is stuffed with options including walks among the Surrey Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and chalky North Downs, drooling with envy at Mercedes Benz World or learning about Lewis Carroll at Guildford Museum.
