Springbok Campsite

Positiv Hardstanding pitches and grass in excellent condition and large. Very gentle slope. Very quiet (apart from Gatwick planes which are relatively unobtrusive). Beautiful rural surroundings. Lots of forest walks with loads of birdlife (it was very muddy when we were there but there has been excessive rain this winter so far). Facilities are basic but adequate and clean. Lots of hot water in shower. Washing up area very good and indoors, which is a bonus!
Felt very welcome in the bar in the main house for a drink - lovely views over the grounds.
Happy to be supporting Care Ashore charity with our stay.

Negativ Only a couple of minor things...hand drier in ladies not working very well and could do with a squeegy and mop in the facilities to keep the floors cleaner (muddy footprints).

Positiv Nice level solid ground, free from mud etc club house is nice, warm and friendly staff. A pleasure to sit inside and have a drink.

Negativ Would recommend hard standing cross tongue to electrical and water points to safe walking over the water logged grass in front of these areas as a suggestion.

Positiv Lovely little site.very quiet and easy to use. Facilities great and not busy in January.

Negativ Bit scruffy on the route in and around the nearby trade units. Visible old mattresses. Chairs. Car parts. Would be easy to clean up or dispose of to help the environment if nothing else?

Positiv Only our 2nd night out in the new camper, so was looking to upgrade from off grid hard standing to hook up and showers. This was a great overnighter for this time of year… and it’s been really wet of late. The pitches were easily located by following the signage. As a rookie I just placed a space between the other camper vans and connected up the van. A quick scout around to find the toilets and showers and then a look at the map to find a walking route to a pub for some dinner. A shout out to the Sir Roger Tichborne at Billingshurst. Very welcoming and accommodating after a 40 minute walk in the dark. Google maps was trying to take us back on ourselves, but the map showed a route by foot cutting 15 mins off the trek. Be careful after dark ( and daylight), as the last mile or so has a bit with no path. Very quiet throughout the night except the sound of rain on the roof. The gravel hard standings drained we’ll dispute the downpour. Showered in the main shower combined with the toilets - short walk from the pitches. Didn’t top
up the water or empty the sink waste, but wished I had as both needed doing. Facilities for this were well signposted.

Negativ Nothing to dislike. get spot for overnighter and more in the summer months.
