  • Prettily landscaped park within easy reach of major travel hubs
  • Within an hour's drive of London and Brighton; Gatwick 15 minutes
  • A mile from Lingfield village's pubs, shops and restaurants
Woof. That’s your dog telling you to book a long, long Lingfield stay: the pitches at family-run Long Acres Caravan and Camping Park are pet-friendly (although there is a small extra fee for man’s best friend) – and there are lots of options for walkies in the surrounding Surrey countryside too. Whether you plan to use Long Acres to walk the dog (or be walked by the dog) or as a base to see the attractions of Surrey, human campers are also in for a treat at this friendly, well-maintained park. There’s a well-stocked tourist information kiosk, firepits to hire, and three spotless centrally heated toilet and shower blocks. For food, Lingfield village – with its shops, pubs, restaurants, takeaways and supermarkets – is a mile away. The High Weald National Landscape is a short drive south of the site, and the Surrey Hills National Landscape is a 10-minute drive to the north. Don’t lose your head with the huge range of historical highlights in the area either, starting with 13th-century Hever Castle & Gardens (20 minutes' drive), the childhood home of Anne Boleyn (boo to Henry Eighth) and with award-winning gardens, water maze with a mind of its own and what will probably be the fave of the kids – a 13th-century gatehouse with historical instruments of execution and torture.

What customers say

Spacious pitches & clean facilities are a hit, with friendly staff. Great for local walks. Major downside: constant low-flying aircraft noise under Gatwick flight path. Some noted paid showers & no central shop.

Liked Toilets and showers. Showers were like wet rooms, spacious and clean. They included the wc.

Disliked No-one there when we arrived. We had to sort out telephone number to ring and book in. We did not arrive late.

Higgledy Piggledy camping pod

Liked Everything! We usually camp in our tent but the pitches were all booked so we tried out a hut and were not disappointed. Lovely little space.
The site itself is great, lovely toilet and shower block all close by, great play area, bar and food vans, lovely walks, loved the planes coming over and took a trip to Gatwick aviation museum with kids and dog which was a great day out.

Disliked Nothing!

Liked Very beautiful and spacious pitches. Toilettes were clean. Allows self-check in in case you arrive late.

Disliked It's near the airport, so expect lots of plane takeoff noise. The opening hours of the reception differ each day: very confusing. Showers require coins to operate. No way to pay by card. With no reception open and no cash you can't shower. Come on, it's 2025 guys, that's ridiculous.

Liked The openness of the pitch, friendly staff. Clean showers, didn't mind paying 50p as they were hot and 12 minutes is plenty of time. We didn't read the map well so for the first 2 nights we walked all the way down to near reception for the toilets until we found the middle block! 😂. Really close to Hever Castle well worth a visit .

Disliked Nothing really would visit again if we were coming up that area again.

Local attractions

Standen (15 minutes' drive), a National Trust property, is at nearby East Grinstead, and has a hillside setting around an arts and crafts house with work by William Morris. Gardens more your thing? Wander around the world woodlands at Wakehurst (20 minutes), managed by the Royal Gardens at Kew and the setting for much of Kenneth Branagh’s adaptation of As You Like It, or take a look at Wisley (35 minutes), the flagship garden of the Royal Horticultural Society. Horses? You’ll like Lingfield Park Racecourse, one of only five all-weather racecourses in the country, with race meetings all year round. Or how about other types of beasties – Surrey is stuffed with animal parks, wildlife centres and farms: Lingfield’s British Wildlife Centre (five minutes) with 40 native species, Farnham’s Birdworld (an hour) and the farm park Hobbledown (35 minutes) for starters – or the zoo and Sea Life Centre at Chessington World of Adventures (35 minutes).
