About Etherley Farm
This back to basics campsite is the perfect location for enjoying a peaceful stay in the Surrey Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Surrounded by National Trust woodland and scenic walking trails, it is an ideal spot for those wanting to explore the outdoors. The site is simple with two camping fields situated on a working farm. Tents, campervans, caravans and motorhomes are all welcome across the 50 unallocated non electric grass pitches, with up to ten people per pitch. Group bookings, such as Duke of Edinburgh, are also welcome and will all be able to camp together too. Out of peak season and during the week, the site is tranquil, with the chatter of ducks and geese in the background and the murmur of tractors as the farm goes about its daily business. If you're wanting to venture off site, the charming towns of Horsham and Guildford are both within a 30 minute drive, perfect for days of shopping or exploring. BBQs and small campfires are allowed, perfect for cosy nights under the stars. However, please ensure to not take any wood from the surrounding National Trust woodland. Dogs are not welcome, sorry.
Etherley Farm is open from 01/04 to 30/09 in 2024 and 2025.
Site facilities include modern showers and toilets, as well as hot water for washing up. There's also a produce shop which is licensed and sells free-range chicken, duck, burgers and sausages, egg and honey from the farm, along with some camping essentials.
The produce shop is open - Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays 8am-6pm, Fridays and Saturdays 8am-7pm, Sundays 8am-4pm and closed on Mondays.
The nearest supermarket is Londis which is a ten minute drive away. The Parrot in Forest Green is the closest pub to the site, a 20 minute walk away, and several others are within a short drive.

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!
