 We stayed at this campsite for our first experience of camping and really liked it. The site is very well run, the facilities spotlessly clean and the lake is charming.
The two large fields away from the lake seemed to be full of families and large pitches. I found these to be a bit regimented but we were allocated a pitch in the wooded area which I much preferred as it felt a bit more back to nature. They told us they prefer not to put children in this area as it is near the lake and it was mainly couples but there were a few smaller families there (mainly Dad and son pairs who seemed to be here for the fishing).
We took our dog and they had a great dog walk area.
The camp is in a lovely part of Surrey. I would definitely recommend The Plough pub in the next village of Effingham for an excellent lunch.
All in all a great campsite.

We stayed at Horsley for two nights with our two children aged 5 and 6 along with four other families with children of a similar age. What a beautiful campsite! Helped by a wonderful weekend of weather, although I'm sure it's just as lovely in the rain.
When we phoned to book the staff were really helpful and did their best to make sure we were all pitched close together to enable us to watch and listen for the children once they'd gone to bed at night. We did however, have no guarantee of being next to each other which was a bit of a nuisance. We ended up being in the same area but with other campers in between although we managed to find a central point at which we could sit and all the tents could be seen and heard at night.
The toilet and shower block was spotless and it was so nice to have a shower at a campsite that stayed on for as long as you needed rather than a button that only lasts for 10 seconds at a time. Washing up facilities were great and there were two communal washing lines outside the launderette (1 washer and 1 dryer) which I'm sure would be really handy if staying for a longer period.
A few of the men and children took advantage of the fishing which they enjoyed greatly and the lake was really picturesque and peaceful. The children loved this site and for us it was great as they were really safe at all times.
There were a parade of lovely shops about one and a half miles from the campsite which included a bakers, a butchers, an off license and a budgens. Perfect for everything you could need!
Everyone on site seems to really respect the 11pm noise deadline which was lovely although it wasn't at all noisy before that either. We all loved this site and would rate it as one of our favourite sites visited so far.
One complaint I'm afraid. The gentleman that oversees the site and shows you to your pitch is very abrupt in his manner (as indicated in other reviews).

We've visited this lovely site 3 times so far and love it.
OK, so it helps that it's only 45 minutes away from us and so easy as a quick get away location but that aside it is a great place to visit regardless of this.
We struck it lucky on our first visit. Having been stuck on the M25 up near the M11 for 5 hours in a hot mini (the real one) we eventually got to Graffham to find the place very busy. Thanks to this we were put right at the edge of the lake in our little 2 man tent and so were able to position it so that when we woke up we could flap it open and gaze out over a misty lake with ducks quacking and flapping.
The best place to pitch is under the trees but I believe that this is a no children zone as the only times we were able to pitch there were without our nephews.
The facilities are excellent and the shop perfectly good.
The staff have always been very friendly.
Obviously if you are a fisherman then there is a bonus here as the lake has a LOT of very hungry Carp milling around waiting to munch your offering. Fishermen note that at the time of writing only luncheon meat, bread and sweetcorn are allowed as bait. And no groundbaiting or floating bait.

We have just come back from 2 lovely days camping at Horsley, our 1st camping trip with 2 children under 6. The lake and woodland was beautiful, really peaceful with all the fishing going on. Our children had a wonderful time feeding the ducks and fish, and generally playing lots of outdoor games and getting lots of fresh air. We had very good weather which always helps. The staff we really friendly and helpful, as were all the other campers and caravanners we met. The toilets and showers were clean and warm and there was a good baby changing room with a large sink big enough to wash/bath a baby in.
The kids play area was small with only 1 swing and a slide, but all the kids seemed happy enough with this as they and made new friends at the play area then ended up playing football tennis etc with all their own equipment nearby
I would definitely go back again, and would recommend the site to anyone new to camping. Next time we will bring bikes for the kids, as it seemed a safe place for kids to cycle round.

We were recommended this site by friends and it was the first time I'd taken my two young children camping. We only stayed for one night and all in all we had a nice stay. The site is immaculate and the showers and toilets very clean. The staff were very helpful and the small shop caters well for most essentials. There's also a large pond near the entrance (you certainly couldn't call it a lake) for you to fish on.
However if you really want to do some proper camping then this isn't really for you. The place is neat and tidy but has a very clinical feel to it. They also shut the loos between 11am and 1pm for cleaning (it really takes 2 hours??!) The children's play area consists of two swings and a log surrounded by bark, infact I’m not sure if the bark was meant to be played with as well. Anyway the 30 or so children who were queuing up for a chance to sit on the log didn't look that impressed. Some gave up and trudged back to their tents. We then visited the 'activity hall'. This consisted of one table tennis table without bats or balls or net and about 20 plastic tables each with four chairs. There were also two dartboard cupboards. One cupboard was open but didn't have a dartboard and the other one was bolted shut (there must have been a dartboard in that one, but it probably didn't have any darts). We could have rounded up some of the older clientele and sat them down on those plastic chairs for a game of bingo but we didn't have a bingo machine. Maybe that's something that the owners should invest in because in its current state the hall's fit for nothing else.
This site is ideal for one or two nights and everyone seemed very pleasant. The clientele are mainly oldies and maybe that's why it's like it is. Would I stay again - definitely but we'd bring another log for the playground.

Lovely site, good sized pitches and not to regemental on setting out awning etc. Fairly safe for children to ride around and the lake with the ducks is beautiful and loads of fishing going on. R
eally handy for the National Trust properties and just relaxing. The facilities were good and clean and there were plenty of hookup and the pitches were prebooked which was good especially with friends and relatives.
Good childrens playarea for small children. This site has been going years My father used to go in the 1950's !

This is a lovely campsite, nice lake full of carp, not that I fish. We had a 6 man tent plus electric hookup for our 3 night stay. Staff were very nice apart from one old guy who thinks he is some sort of prison warden! There is NO traffic movement allowed between 11pm & 7am! I started my car at 06:55 & was told off, even though the old guy was 2 minutes late opening the site gates so I could leave early for an airshow. Apart from him, the site is very clean, toilets are superb, park for children consists of 2 swings & 1 slide, not exactly ground breaking but ok for short stays.Pitch to be vacated by 12am, so you can have a slow packup in the morning without the noraml 10am rush.
Not being a local person I had a bit of difficulty finding supermarkets etc, guildford being the nearest & only a short trip down the A3.
Would I return? YES.

We stayed at the C&CC site at Horsley in October 2007. It is a very nice site, although at the time the ground was very soggy and it was very muddy in the field we were in as the trees blocked out the low October sun and the previous week had been very wet. The adajecent field was much drier. The site has a lake, a small recreation room and a childrens play area and the facilities were very clean (as usual for C&CC). Our son took his telescope and at night he was able to see lots of stars - there was very little light pollution for a place so near London.
We took the train into London from Horsley Station on one day and visited Thorpe Park as well.

We stopped here for just one night.
We had been to the Netherlands and needed a stop close to the m25 we arrived at 7.45 it was nearly dark and the site managers were very friendly and helpful.
Being very close to the motorway this was an excellent stop for us. Quiet and not too far to continue the next morning. The ground was a bit muddy and I think the hard standings could do with a little improving but it was a very pretty site.
The one thing that I loved was that when it was dark there were no lights on site and the night sky being clear was stunning. I have never seen so many bright stars and being close to the airport the lights of the aeroplanes looked amazing, with out any noise coming from them. The next morning on my way to the shower block I had to stop and look at the woodpecker tapping a hole in the tree. I think this is in a good location to visit many interesting places. It was a shame we couldnt stay longer.

Have to say we love this site. It was our first 'test' site with our new van and have been frequenting the site for the last two years.
Yes, it does appear to be a van round the lake kind of place but its not really. About 10 round the lake and the rest in a couple of fields around the back.
There is now a small play area for children, climbing frame type etc but the recreation hall is still under utilized.
The toilets and showers have been impecable as all c&cc sites and the management are all very friendly and helpful.
If your looking for a weekend away in green surroundings, peace and relaxation with some fishing to boot, this is A++++

A pleaseure to stay at a nice, friendly camp site. Plenty of space, the toilet block immaculate, and the view / location excellent.
Only down-side, and I am being very picky, was the recreation hall, which really could be better used / run (only one table tennis table in a massive hall).
All in all a very pleaseant and enjoyable stay and I would definitely come back again and recommend to others.

This is a very nice campsite. However, when you see the web site there is a lake, when you arrive you find you are tucked away on one of the back fields, and only 10 or so tents/caravans are around the lake.
We found the toilet block very clean and the showers although fairly old were adequate.
We were there in August and had 4 days of rain, the drainage was quite good as the field was not too boggy. The only disappointment was the roads were not tarmac they were rather messy and I am sure fine in the dry.
The campsite managers were very friendly and kept apologising about the bad weather.
Overall, a very nice site.

Pleasant, well-managed site. Very large lake, adequate play area, lots of space for children to roam. Good toilet block with nice hot showers. The site was quite busy when we visited, but pitches are well-spaced and did not seem crowded. Aircraft noise was noticeable in the early morning - the site is close to both Heathrow and Gatwick. Staff were helpful - all in all I would recommend this site.

We have just came back from a 4 night stay here and it was lovely one of the best sites with have been to. The toilet and shower were lovely and clean. The lake was amazing our two children loved feed the carp bread as they came right up to eat it. The play park was good. the site was quite at night. the view from our tent was lovely as we had horse and rabbit in the field behind us. Every one was very friendly and helpful. They only thing was it was quite muddy but that the joys of camping. We enjoyed our stay and are hoping to return soon.

We camped here with friends and found the staff very helpful upon arrival. They allowed us to book in early without any fuss and we were shown to our pitches. We found the pitches were quite small and we could only pitch our tent (6.5m x 3m) length-ways to comply with the 6m fire rule, which meant hubby and I were sleeping on a hill sideways! The ground was very uneven on the field we were on.
The shower/toilet blocks were clean as you expect from c & cc sites. The shop had the usual basic supplies.
You could walk to the village which had a couple of takeaways, off-licence, budgens store, newsagent, etc. You could also take the train to london from the village.
The kids loved playing table tennis in the games room which would come in very handy if the weather was bad, and next time we visit we will bring darts for the dart board.
The fishing was great and hubby and kids sat for hours reeling them in.
We spend most of our time on site and only left to get some shopping and to visit chessington world of adventures.
We will definitely be returning to this site very soon.
