My first time camping. Absolutely loved this place. It has everything I need. The toilets and showers are cleaned. Loved the fact the sink is huge and is outside with lights. The shop is very good with friendly staffs. The pitches are very clean and spacious. 10/10.
Great place to stay, basic but spot on

Stayed here for 3 nights with our van and awning as a base whilst visiting some local theme parks. The site had everything we needed, plenty of clean toilets, hot showers and a nice little shop on site. Will be back next year!

Very laid back open field with plenty of space for our kids to play. Clean toilets, warm showers, fire pits around and a great atmosphere around camp in the evenings. Everyone having a great time together and sharing those moments under a starry sky in the countryside. Close to many a things but far enough away to feel like you're in the middle of nowhere! Lovely staff, really cared about their service on the farm. Locally produced meat and cider was ace on the bbq and the shop stocks everything you need from the essentials to things for the kids.
Beautiful and quiet

Myself and my daughter stayed in our campervan which we newly purchased. It was really fun and quiet. Lovely shop on site with yummy food and drink. Helpful staff and the facilities were clean. :) Will be returning. :) x

A very lovely spot in the Surrey hills, whilst being accessible for London. Quiet, rural and chilled. Two large fields surrounded by woodland, with good facilities. Fall asleep and wake up to the sound of geese and farm animals….all very restful and a great place to recharge.
Great site and great location

Stayed here as it's the perfect location as it's out of the way in nice countryside, but an hour away from Thorpe park and Lego Land and half an hour away from Chessington World of Adventures. No electric hookups. Shower block and toilets are very clean with loads of cubicles of both showers and toilets. Washing facilities perfect with hot water for your dishes. Loads of places to pitch your tent and not too busy. I'd highly recommend staying here if you don't mind a non electric grass pitch. Full sun pretty much all day long in the fields so pitch in corners where trees are for shade. Loads of fire pit areas available too.
Relaxed and peaceful

This site is located in the beautiful Surrey Hills National Landscape and is surrounded by National Trust land. We did not have time to explore the local area, but imagine that there are some lovely walks nearby. The campsite comprises two level fields with freedom to pitch wherever you wish (no hook-ups). There was evidence that campfires are allowed. The showers and toilets are unisex and plentiful; there are two outdoor sinks for washing-up. As we arrived late and left the following morning, we did not meet the owners, or see the shop as it was closed. Some people might be put off that this is part of a poultry farm and some squawking could be heard, also some aircraft noise from nearby Gatwick, but this really was not a problem. We would recommend this site for its relaxed feel and would stay here again if in the area.
The best campsite on Leith Hill

Great base for running, walking and mountain biking on Leith Hill. Quiet (Monday night), no road noise. Two large fields for camping, with big starry-sky views from the top of the field. Sat around a log fire built with quality wood purchased from the farm shop. Rousing dawn chorus. Matt's Tip: Keep food away from the foxes over night (and jackdaws at dawn?). Something ate the eggs we bought from the farm shop - but that was our fault for leaving them outside. We'll stay there again, for sure.
Lovely spot well out of the city :)

My friend and I had a great stay at Etherley! Very well looked after campsite with friendly staff and fellow campers. The hikes around Leith Hill were a definite bonus and the stargazing was gorgeous this far out of the city. My only heads up to other campers would be to make sure you know how you're getting home as we had a bit of an adventure on our way back. We look forward to coming back again soon!
Fantastic site!

We have just returned from a 3 night stay here. It is a lovely "laid back" site - so nice to have open fields and just be allowed to choose where to pitch your tent. Produce shop was well stocked and nice to buy cold alcohol as well as tasty meat! Toilets and showers spotlessly clean. We will be back.

Beautiful campsite in a lovely location. Very secluded, no road noise, just the sound of the farm and the wildlife. Easy access to walking trails direct from the campsite with the National Trust produced map and leaflet of the Leith Hill Estate to guide you. Facilities were excellent, probably the best showers in any campsite I've been to. Nicely stocked farm shop on site, although would have been nice to have had a few more vegetarian options. Stayed for two nights and I had everything I needed could have happily stayed longer. I'll be heading back again soon. Thank you to everyone involved.

We had a lovely time here. Mid week, it is very quiet and we had a peaceful stay. The surrounding woods are beautiful, would recommend a walk. Great produce in the farm shop made for an excellent breakfast too! Staff all very friendly and relaxed.
My short stay.

The site was peaceful and, going into the peak season, there were not too many campers. As a keen walker, there were lots of footpaths and good walks in the area. The farm shop was handy. I would have liked a warning about the squirrels which chewed through my cool box and a pint of milk left unattended during a trip to the WC's. Plugs in the sinks would have been useful but I can see why they were not supplied. Plentiful, piping hot water.
Very convenient, nice facilities

A great spot. Sorry I couldn't stay longer. The sign to Etherley farm is not very visible from the main road and my satnav was a little confused, but I got directions from a nearby butcher. . The site on a green field was very pleasant. Ablutions were clean, well kept and functioned well. I thoroughly enjoyed my walks in the area, and would recommend Etherley farm to anyone looking to camp in this part of England.
Excellent

Very good campsite in a field, has an excellent farm shop and reasonable toilet and shower facilities. The only let down, and hence the 2 4 stars, was because when we arrived, there were possibly 50 or so teenagers camped in the adjoining field on a school trip. This made using the shared toilet/shower facilities a bit off putting for this particular elderly couple. The second day was so much better once the school had gone. I would return if I'm that way again but I'd ask first about school trips!

Lovely working farm site with The Parrot pub being only a short walk away. Lovely pub with great food. The farm shop sells mostly their own products and got some delicious chicken burgers.

A great, well-run campsite with plenty of space and very clean facilities. Really enjoyed our stay and would definitely return. We used it during a hike along the Greensand Way and had a restful night. A campfire in the evening was the perfect end to the day.
