  • 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

A peaceful, tidy spot in lovely country. Spacious spots, easy local walks. Friendly vibe, especially in the social club. Facilities clean but dated; refurb planned. Tranquil, but can get aircraft noise & patchy phone signal. Highly recommended!

Powered concrete and grass site

Liked Easy to find campsite in a superb area with plenty to do. Pitches were spacious with hard standing and grass. We were made to feel very welcome at the social club and our dog was very spoilt! Great walks around the campsite. Shower and toilet block was kept clean.
We really enjoyed our stay - as novice campervan owners it was a great place to start. Great responsive communication with staff before we arrived.

Disliked Not a dislike but there could be an issue during busy times with just a shower and 2 toilets per gender.

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Dear Sarah

Thank you for your lovely feedback - we are please you enjoyed your stay, felt welcome, and made the most of the surrounding walks - we are very lucky to be located in this area.

We appreciate your comments regarding the facilities; in April we also open the additional shower shacks to help with the busier times.

Thank you again, and we hope to welcome you back soon.

Liked My son and I love coming to springbok, it’s local to us and my son is a member of the fishing club so it makes an ideal weekend break! It’s peaceful and all the residents are friendly and make you feel welcome. Pitches are a very good size , if your looking for something with good walking this is the place to come it’s surrounded by footpaths. Has the added bonus of the bar up at the main house which has very reasonable priced drinks and everyone makes you feel welcome. We will return

Disliked The showers and toilets are simple and adequate however my son doesn’t like using the showers due to a few cobwebs and spiders. So it maybe could be cleaner. Water is always hot though. Only a small complaint.

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Dear Samantha

Thank you for your lovely feedback - we are so pleased you and your son enjoy visiting and that you are made to feel welcome.
Apologies for the pesky spiders - being a countryside location they do sometimes sneak in, but we will make sure the showers are checked for cobwebs.

Thank you again, and we look forward to welcoming you back.

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.
