View prices & book

The camping field is surrounded by woodland

New

Quiet family-friendly pop-up next to woodland on a Surrey Hills farm
South Downs National Park 30 minutes’ drive, and Box Hill 25 minutes
Dogs welcome and direct access to walks; pubs 15 minutes’ walk

When all you want is peace and lots of countryside in which to wander, the answer is simple: make a beeline for Draysey Woods Nature Escape. This small family pop-up site sits on a farm 10 minutes’ walk from Ockley in the Surrey Hills National Landscape – it’s not a place to head for if you’re after entertainment and lots of music; this is a quiet site providing simple pleasures like long rambles through the fields and dog walks in woodland. The field is level and backed by trees; there’s masses of room for family games of football and general running around. Handy facilities include hot showers and clean flushable toilets, washing-up sinks, picnic tables and an under-cover games area. Near the site you can scramble up Leith Hill (15 minutes’ drive) to its landmark tower and absorb views across the Surrey Hills to the South Downs National Park (half an hour). There are also lots of National Trust properties for you to discover in about half an hour’s drive, and when you’ve had your fill of local heritage, there are two pubs within 15 minutes’ stroll of the site and several others within 10 minutes by car.
