Líbí se Good facilities. Quiet site. Great for kids. There were fields, a wood to explore, a football pitch and other activities. We stayed in one of the unfurnished bell tents and the campfire set up that came with it was great.

Líbí se Fire pits were good and logs lit well.

Nelíbí se Lack of wheel barrows / trolleys for the site compared to the number of pitches. Made this difficult to get camping kit from drop off location to pitch. Very small drop off location. no set pitches and therefore felt packed in and other camping just waunder into your area.
There seemed to be a lot going on with a kids gathering, meaning it was not peaceful at all.
additional charge for dogs for what reason I have no idea as there were no particular facilities for them other than being allowed off lead in the woods. No hooks to tie leads or dog bowls/ water stations.

Líbí se A lovely campsite in a great location with great hosts that really care! The set up ensures no overcrowding which is important. A real focus on nature with a family and child friendly feel. The toilets and hot showers are clean and accessible and the communal fridge freezer a bonus as was the table tennis. Camping isn’t camping without a fire pit so great to have that option too!

Líbí se The long, natural grass, the woods and lake. Lovely surrounding.
Good quality table tennis table and bats was made good use of.
Lots of space (not too many tents) was a great feature.

Nelíbí se Needed more wheelbarrows.
For a nature area I was surprised at the lack of recycling facilities.

Od správce: Thank you so much for your review we really appreciate it.

We have recently added a couple more wheelbarrows but will definitely add to that for the convenience of our guests.

With regards to the recycling. This is hugely important to us too and we’re working on a solution. Unfortunately due to some guests contaminating the recycling with general waste we withdrew the facility as we were being charged an additional amount which we don’t want to have to increase our prices in order to cater for. We know most people are environmentally conscious like ourselves so we will look into a way of reintroducing this.

Líbí se Absolutely everything

Líbí se Cracking campsite. We were after a cheap spot near the Surrey hols and Draysey woods was that and more. The site had excellent facilities and great feel. Charlie the site manager is very helpful and friendly providing good local knowledge and fire wood!

Líbí se Amazing campsite! This was our second time staying. The owners are super friendly and thoughtful and have really worked hard to think of everything they can to make this campsite relaxing and close to nature.
- Most of the site is left un-mowed as meadow to encourage grasshoppers, butterflies and other pollinators, giving peaceful views and biodiversity, but there is also ample mowed space to find a quiet pitch for your tent.
- Showers and toilets are clean and well stocked, there's a good washing-up area, and even a covered seating area that can be used in bad weather.
- Beautiful woodland attached to the site gives space to explore, and having no cars on the field means it is peaceful and child friendly.
- New features are being added regularly (log seating appeared while we were there!) as the owners have a good vision for comfortable but nature based camping.
- Couple of good pubs in walking distance of the site that both do food, and a small shop for emergency snacks. Dorking a short drive away, as well as Leith Hill and an excellent pub called The Parrot.
Would highly recommend- beautiful family run campsite that we will return to!

Nelíbí se Because large areas of the field are meadowland, there is a lot of insect life - so be prepared for bugs!
