Why stay here ...

With convenient access from the M25 motorway, and located near Merstham, Redhill, Alderstead Heath Club Campsite has a picturesque setting that you and your family will find ideal for a relaxing and peaceful holiday break. The site is surrounded by rolling wooded countryside and situated near the Pilgrims Way, so there are many lovely walking trails - in particular across the North Downs - to explore at your leisure. The caravan and motorhome site is perfect for dog walkers; you can pick up details about the Downlands Circular Walk from the site entrance. The Fox pub can also be reached by foot and is approximately 40 minutes away. The site offers the best of both worlds - its proximity to London also makes this site a great base to explore the non-stop activities of the capital.

All pitches are level at Alderstead Heath Club Site to ensure your maximum comfort and convenience; with pitches for camping, caravanning and motorhoming available. Golfing enthusiasts will be delighted as there are several golf courses in the immediate area. The campsite is also an ideal location for exploring much of Sussex, Kent and Surrey and the surrounding coastal areas. Shops and local amenities can be found in nearby Caterham. For further details on this please ask the site warden on arrival or during your stay.

There's an abundance of attractions and day trips to choose from, options include family theme parks such as Chessington World of Adventures, National Trust properties such as Chartwell, some beautiful gardens including RHS Wisley, and several racecourses. Denbies Wine Estate in Dorking is another nearby attraction that is well worth the visit. Whether you’re camping or touring, this campsite is a great way to explore Surrey.

Great physical environment

The site is very nice with big well spaced pitches. The location is great for Motorhome because of the easy access to walks straight from the site. The website says walking route maps are available from reception. Sadly this is not the case and the staff have never heard of the downlands circular walk which is the main route. From a guest perspective some thought should be given to recycling, the only way to tell what to recycle where is to go through all the bins - of which there are many small ones. There does not appear to be glass recycling at all. I went to reception to ask where the non recyclable waste went and was told it was the small domestic bin outside the reception door. I confirmed this was indeed the only one and was told yes. Sadly once again it was not labelled. The booking in instructions failed to inform that you have to come back for a barrier access card when you have parked up or that parking to the left of the site peg is required. They are however happy to drive round on a tractor and tell people to move after the event.

Another excellent stay

Stayed for 5 nights at the beginning of dec to visit family. The site is lovely spacious pitches, facilities are immaculate and band system in place. Top block open. Lovely walks from the site , downland. Way circular. Great location for lots of national trust places and trains from merstham to London. Look forward to staying again. Don't follow your sat nav as Dean lane is not suitable for caravans

Take care on your approach to this site.......

The advised route was closed, so we asked the Google gods to direct us to the site. It was of course down one width lanes for quite some time. Needless to say it was quite stressful but we arrived. As always a friendly welcome and you just know everything is going to be clean and works when you come to a caravan club site. We set up in the dark and in no time at all. There is a big Tesco store about a 1 1/2 ,miles away and we spent the weekend visiting our daughter. Did not use the facilities but had a peek and they were spotless. It served its purpose for us and it was a nice site with trees and yes you can just about hear a hum of motorway traffic noise but it did not bother us at all.

Well maintained site in a great walking location

This is a really neat but characterful site. Well maintained, and with plenty of trees but you are not overhung. Facilities are really tidy and clean. The walks straight from the site, up onto North Downs / Pilgrim's Way, through Chaldon, along Happy Valley, and through the woods to Alderstead Heath, and more, are great. Tremendous views form the North Downs. Only gave 4* for Peace and quiet, as there is a slight um from M25. Great cycling on the nearest NCN cycle routes too.

An oasis of calm

This week I stayed at Alderstead Heath campsite with my young daughter and her best friend. The wardens were friendly, polite and helpful, without being in any way intrusive. The site and facilities were immaculate. Only an hour away from our home In London. Super little playground and lovely walks nearby. We shall definitely be returning. Thank you.
