From the manager: Thank you for leaving us a review.
We’re pleased to hear you enjoyed the lovely grounds and made good use of the bar area during your stay.
We’re sorry to hear about your experience with the showers and appreciate you bringing this to our attention. We will look into this to ensure they are working as expected.
As a rural campsite, mobile signal can be limited, and while we do provide WiFi, this is available in the Main House rather than across the pitches to help preserve the peaceful setting.
Thank you again for your feedback, and we hope to welcome you back in the future.

Overall a great location for some peace & quiet
Powered cement/asphalt and grass campsite
Liked Stunning views, quiet, lovely walks and woodland. Close to Cranleigh with a nice selection of little shops and cafes
Disliked Very difficult to put pegs into the handstands and still minimal investment in toilets and showers, which are clean but extremely worn. Not a problem if you have your own facilities

Would return, really enjoyed our stay!
Powered cement/asphalt and grass campsite
Liked Well maintained pitches and grounds in beautiful countryside. Great dog friendly clubhouse. There was a fantastic band there one evening, with a good value bar!
Good walks close by.
Disliked During a busy tent season I doubt there would be enough toilet facilities for families. 2 ladies loo's, 2 mens and 1 disabled. Clean but old with a few spiders.
1 shower and only 1 sink in each block.
However they have added 2 outside shower shacks which were great!

Liked Everything! Peaceful, beautiful views, lovely walks, bar on site, pub with great food only a 30/40 minute walk away across fields & the Shower Shacks provide a fabulous outdoorsy showering experience without out being exposed.

fantastic site ,most definitely revisit more plus's than minuses
Powered cement/asphalt and grass campsite
Liked Great wide pitch, main showers could possibly do with a upgrade but still more than usable, shower shack showers are great but the water temp is a little bit to hot and yes I did email them , the club house 100%0ans the staff are amazing, fishing pond fantastic value and the bailiff is very helpful, and amazing with the younger ones , will we return 100%0yes we will and sometimes soon ,, overall we rate this site 8/10but that's me being picky , please don't lety review put you off as there are more +s then -s and don't forget it's all for charity, we will be booking again as soon as we get home.
Disliked Showers need bit of a rethink , shower shack are good but need to be a little bit bigger and more hanging space, main toilet block is more than usable but not big enough for the size of the site when busy

Nice site. We will be back
Powered cement/asphalt and grass campsite
Liked Lovely site. The grandchildren especially like being able to go to the house to play darts and table tennis, room for them to play by the units. Friendly people in the house who sorted out the table tennis table for us!
Disliked Not being able to book pitches next to each other or together, although none of the pitches are far from each other

Liked Lovely and quiet. Respectful guests. Fab to have the on-site bar. Clean and tidy.
Disliked Not totally clear on showers and facilities for clamping as separate to caravan pitches. Seemed unnecessary to have them separate
