  • 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).

What customers say

Guests love the chill vibe, roomy, tidy sites, and lovely gardens at this peaceful spot. The bar and welcoming locals are a hit. Facilities are mostly clean and fine, though some find them basic and in need of updates, noting inconsistent shower temps and occasional cold kitchen water. Great for walks. It's praised for peace and value, with many wanting to come back.

Liked Great little site. Clean and comfortable. Very nice welcome at the clubhouse/bar and lovely walks. Recommended. We didn’t get hot water for a shower. Not sure if we missed something so not prepared to put it down as a negative this time

Powered cement/asphalt and grass campsite

Liked Beautiful location. Well maintained pitches. Reasonable facilities. Only spent 1 night here during a visit to see friends in the area so didn't really get a chance to explore the site properly. We will probably be back and hopefully for longer next time!

Disliked Planes overhead throughout the night. Aerodrome nearby so one of those things. We adjusted to it after a while. Didn't spoil the stay.

Susan B.

Powered cement/asphalt and grass campsite

Liked We love going to springbok, we usually visit 2/3 times a year and are never disappointed. The pitches are well kept and tidy. The campus is home to retired sea men and when we go to their on site social area you are sure of a warm welcome, at their restaurant you can book a Sunday dinner - it was very good. My husband loves the fishing lake. There are lots of little walks on site and if you are adventurous the surrounding countryside is beautiful. Plenty of hot water in the camp kitchen area to wash your bbqs.

Disliked I have discussed this mute point with the staff who assure me there are plans ahead - the toilets and shower area is very ‘tired’ and the shower tiles need a re grout but they are cleaned every day. Thank you. 😁

From the manager: Thank you for your kind words – we’re so glad you found the site friendly, peaceful and welcoming. We did notice your score was a little lower than your lovely comments, so if there’s anything we can do to make your next stay even better, we’d love to know. Hopefully we can earn a 10/10 when you visit us again!

We’re so pleased you enjoyed the spacious pitch, the lake, and the friendly atmosphere in the club.

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.
