February 2025 Update:

Our plans are shaping up nicely for our 2025 National Event this summer, at Cranleigh, Surrey.

In preparation for setting out the layout and some details of the event, the lead organisers visited the site recently and these drone shots provide an overview (literally!) of the site we have booked for our event.

(above) This view shows almost the whole site. The caravan and motorhome parking is lower in the view. The camping pods (not set up at this time of year and not for us to book anyway) above. The main house is on the right side of the view with the grass lawn to its rear, in the upper-centre of the view. The grass field (top of the view, the pale coloured green at this time of year) is the large camping field which we will use.
(above) This is one part of the site. The main Springbok house is in the lower right of the view with the grass lawn to the rear (the greener looking grass area). We will use the lawn for our Sunday “Show and Shine” lineup. The large field in the centre area of the view is where we will be camping.
(above) Beyond the main house is the front lawn area and the pond. The lawn lower in the view is where the “Show and Shine” will be.
(above) The hard-standing places are easy to access. The winter rains have left puddles this morning but this is not an issue in the summer time.
(above) The entry driveway passes the little lake to the right. The main house is towards the top of the view and the camping field beyond that.
(above) This small lake has fish in it and there is the option of purchasing a day-permit to fish.

Booking details, and lots more information about activities, food, toilets, showers, will be shared in Impressions and online here. Look back regularly for updates!
