Springbok Campsite

Kedvelték: Wonderful Campsite. Just a few hard standing touring pitches . Arrive and choose which one you fancy. Nice washing up “Cottage” had info pamphlets in there. Great walks from the site. Plus around the grounds and the fishing lake. The social club in the big house was great as well. Very friendly. Chatting to the residents . Very enjoyable stay. Absolutely will return !!!!!

Nem kedvelték: Nothing whatsoever to dislike

Kedvelték: Conveniently located, access to clubhouse bar and lovely walks from site. Short walk to local pub and longer walk to Top Gear test track. Basic, but clean amenities.

Nem kedvelték: Unattended, without any management; had kids from neighbouring tent running riot between tents etc. Basic facilities, no hot water in the kitchen to wash greasy dishes. A microwave would be a useful addition.

Kezelői megjegyzés: Thank you for your 8/10 review! We are very sorry that you had issues with the children. We do ask that children are kept to their own area of the camp, but unfortunately, as with everything, they are not all as well behaved as we would like. We are happy that you managed to get out to the old Top Gear track and local pubs, these are always a good visit. We do not have any office staff here at the weekend. We understand that this is not for everyone, but think that people prefer the cost to be kept low rather than having staff walking around. The hot water issue was discovered and rectified as soon as we possibly could. It was found that the controls had been tampered with, so was an easy fix. We hope that you give us another try soon. Thank You from the Springbok Estate Site Team

Kedvelték: sehr ruhiger, sauberer Platz, Stellplätze eben, Sanitäre Einrichtungen sauber; Personal nett und bemüht; nette Führung durchs Haupthaus mit der Geschichte zum Haus

Nem kedvelték: Rezeption schwierig zu finden, aber ok; Warmwasserrepartur in Küche dauerte 2 Tage, war zu tolerieren; WLAN leider nur im Haupthaus

Kezelői megjegyzés: Bedankt voor uw 8/10 beoordeling! We zijn erg blij dat u onze camping met een prachtige omgeving en een prachtig uitzicht over de Downs heeft gevonden. We proberen de site zo gastvrij mogelijk te maken zonder al te veel contact voor een meer ontspannen en rustig verblijf. We hoorden van het probleem met het warme water en nadat uit onderzoek bleek dat de bedieningselementen waren gewijzigd, werd dit zo snel mogelijk verholpen. Ik hoop je snel weer te zien! Bedankt namens het Springbok Estate Site-team

Kedvelték: The lower field has hardstanding for 10 tourers with electric and water. There is also an upper field with no electric with around 100 metres between them. The hardstanding pitches that we used were good quality although the grass between them had been left grow too long. The upper field which was too wet to be used had the grass cut short. The ablutions (3 WCs + 1 shower in Ladies & 2 WCs + 1 shower in Gents) are convenient for the upper field but not for the lower field. They were very clean although how such limited facilities would fare when the site is full could be challenging. Conversely and bizarrely, the kitchen and wash-up area was more convenient to the lower field where campers were more likely to be self-contained. Also strangely, even though there was a kitchen and 2 portable showers at the lower field, there was no grey water disposal point at this location. 40 litre (40kg) grey water tank had to be hauled 100 metres uphill at considerable inconvenience and effort. Walking to the WC in a dressing gown (normal on a campsite) one has to pass business units and cars. Cars were pulled right outside WCs (with workers possibly from the business units, not campers, by their cars) so the whole feeling is weird. The chemical toilet disposal is next to the tent camping field where campers are more likely to use the ablution block. Turning out of our pitch with a car towing our caravan wasn’t easy as the opposite site is too close with a rock on each corner to prevent drivers cutting corners. Luckily when leaving, the pitch opposite was empty as it would have been very difficult otherwise. Dogs are welcome and there are nice walks. A well maintained but somewhat disjointed site in a mixed use farming/industrial location.

Kezelői megjegyzés: Thank you for your 6/10 review! We are very happy that you found some good bits of our site but equally we are sad to hear of the items that were not to your liking. We try to to make the site as welcoming as possible for the majority rather than individuals, Unfortunately we are unable to comment on all of your findings good or bad as we understand that not everyone see's the same things. We do however thank you for taking the time to clearly outline everything from your stay with us. We can see that there were some good and some bad findings and we will take all of them into consideration. Thank You from the Springbok Estate Site Team

Kedvelték: Nice spacious, level pitches. Quiet site with good facilities. Nice little bar in the big house where you can chat to the friendly residents. Many lovely walks out from the site.

Nem kedvelték: Was a bit thrown out on arrival at there being nowhere to check in. Maybe a sign to say just find a vacant pitch. Had problems changing vehicle details on my booking from campervan to motorhome. The site said that I needed to do it via PitchUp and they said I needed to do it via the site, although in the end it didn't seem to matter. Having no hot water in the washing up area was a little bit inconvenient. Need to have maintenance people who will come out at weekends. These are very minor niggles which did not prevent us having a lovely stay at the site.

We love having friendly dogs as we see their effects with good mental health benefits, especially evident in our residents when they meet new doggy friends! We would not want to charge for that free therapy! Hope to see you again soon! Thank You from the Springbok Estate Site Team
