  • Prettily landscaped park within easy reach of major travel hubs
  • Within an hour's drive of London and Brighton; Gatwick 15 minutes
  • 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

Great site, clean & roomy spots, top-notch modern facilities. Staff are a legend. Perfect for dog walks & pub nearby. Downsides: plane noise from Gatwick, and showers need 50p coins.

Sarah K.

Unpowered grass site

Liked The dogs walks and Bridles paths. The pub in walking distance. The size of the boys were generous. The bar onsite was fairly priced.

Disliked Lack of basic items in the onsite shop. Screaming kids at 8am on a Sunday morning. Kids playing is lovely, but screaming uncontrollably is not ok. Smelly shower blocks which were too far from the Hayfield and half the site was a building site with random businesses on which gave it a rough feel. Not bad, but not for us.

The WiFi is chargeable.

Bill R.

Powered grass site

Liked Good sized pitch. Clean toilets and showers (...which we were fairly close to at the top of the Hayfield). However, not so keen on combined showers and toilet cubicles in the top block nearest us. Middle block less used and conventional style.However, people on the bottom pitches would have had a lengthy yomp to get to them!

Disliked Goes against the grain having to pay 50p per shower on top of site fees. Shame it's under the Gatwick flight path as its very noisy most of the day. Wouldn't want to be on the pitches closest to the snack and drinks wagons, when open and busy!

We saw no staff pitch is a mixture of permanent pitches and a garage

Liked The pitch was large.

Disliked There was nothing on the web site which stated the site was on a flight path. We had aeroplanes going over from 5am every 3mins. I recorded the sound and it was above what is acceptable. We left the site after one day.
The washrooms are a long way from pitches.
Disappointed as we have used pitch up before with no complaints this site needs to be honest about the noise.
We lost out site fee for two days as a result of leaving.

Powered grass site

Liked Lovely site, great facilities, clean, loads of trees and wildflowers. Ken was very friendly and helpful. A short walk across fields to the local pub. We'll placed for days out, in walking distance of the British Wildlife center. Lots to see and do in the area.

Disliked They are still developing some areas of the site (statics) so some areas were a building site, but from what they have already done it will be lovely when it's finished.
The planes, directly under the approach to Gatwick, planes coming in every minute, when the larger ones come in you can't hear a person speak, but generally it's not too bad and I soon got used to them. They stop around 12.30am and start again around 5am. Great place if your a plane spotter.

Liked Friendly reception. Lots of space for the tents. Fire service was so useful.

Disliked No trees to use as a shelter as it's a large plain field. Lots of air traffic and its noise kept some up us awake.

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.
