We really enjoyed our 2 night stay at Sumners. We were in a Shepherds Hut and enjoyed the slap up full English breakfast included. Ideal location for fishing the lakes and shower block, toilets and washing facilities were excellent

We had a fabulous time, having never stayed at this time of year before, it surpassed our exectations!. The Shepherds huts we hired were wonderfully warm, and all the staff we encountered were brilliant. We particularly wanted to mention, Caroline & Gabe in the cafe: as they went above & beyond in helping my sister Karen, who uses crutches. They made sure that we were always seated comfortably & close to the disabled access. We also particularly wanted to mention Simon too, who very kindly attended to some greenery that had been making itself a "noise nuisance" with the high winds that were blowing on the first night of her stay in Old George, tap,tap,tap repeatedly, & after a conversaton with him in the bathrooms block, he quietly sorted it & she & Colin had a much better nights sleep the following night!!We were so pleased with our stay, we have already booked again for the weekend before Valentines day, in Iris Lodge.Very many thanks to everyone at Sumners for a wonderful

Solo break. Felt very safe on my own on site. Old George is in a lovely lakeside location. The ducks were very welcoming!Reception and Cafe staff are super friendly and professional. It's a real treat to stay.

Have visited many times before, never disappoints. I mainly go to fish in the well stocked and multiple lakes so dont venture off site too much. There is a lovely park in Horsham, a short distance away, well worth a visit. Staff are always friendly and attentive, food and amenities are great.

This was the 5th year of returning to Sumners Pond. It has become an annual tradition with five families and we are already booked for next year. I am not an enthusiastic camper as I hate tents but the fact that there are options that include huts and pods has meant I am able to continue to join our group each year. There are usually 21 in our group and all of us are able to choose what’s best for our budget and enjoyment. The bathroom facilities are great- which has been a very important deciding factor! The chilled atmosphere around the site and great cafe with its helpful staff makes it a place where even the most unenthusiastic camper returns year on year!

Fantastic stay! We stayed in the Shepherds hut Gabriel. It was clean, cosy, with great facilities, showers, bar, restaurant etc . Staff were very friendly, full English breakfast was amazing. Fishing lakes were great, caught a 19.5 pounds carp in Betty's pond ! Excellent value for money. Would highly recommend!
