  • 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

Spacious, peaceful country setting with great views. Friendly staff & locals, handy bar/shop, heaps of walks. Clean facilities, loved the shower shacks. Some found facilities basic, weak mobile signal. Still, a top spot for a chill break!

Liked A really nice site, it was our first night out in our new camper van so we were a little anxious.
There was no need to worry the site is well planned very clean and lots of space for each pitch as well as plenty of walks with our dog.
A bar in the main building is a nice place to visit, overall a relaxing weekend.

Disliked The showers, but understand these are due for refurbishment and as this is a charitable organisation appreciate these jobs can only be done when finance's are available.

Liked De locatie

Disliked Het uitvallen van elektriciteit van 17:00 middags tot 05:00 ‘s morgens vroeg. Dus eind van de middag en avond ook geen warm water voor de douche en afwassen.

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: We’re so sorry for the inconvenience caused by the power outage. It was an emergency issue, and our electrician worked through the night to get it fixed as quickly as possible. We did our best to keep everyone updated by phone and email, and we’re glad you still enjoyed the location.
Best wishes from the Springbok Estate

Liked We liked the quietness of the area. With cows and sheep in the background.
The pitches were not busy as their was only 10 of them. Perfect. But only 5 used. Good idea to be on gravel. Had showers and somewhere to wash dishes weather wasn't great, but we hired a camper van which made it comfortable.

Disliked The toilet block does need some renovation with the mastic around shower.

Will be sure to return. What a gorgeous campsite

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.
