Frensham Great Pond

Frensham Common covers roughly 1,000 acres (400 hectares) of attractive countryside, lying midway between Farnham and Hindhead on either side of the A287. Frensham Common is owned by the National Trust, but most of the land is managed by Waverley Borough Council. Frensham Great Pond is very popular in nice weather. The car park is usually full by 10am so please arrive early to avoid disappointment. Frensham Common is a Site of Special Scientific Interest, Special Area of Conservation, Special Protection Area and includes a Local Nature Reserve (the Flashes). Car park charges apply Good Friday until the beginning of September on weekends and Bank Holidays. Car park closes 9pm daily. There are car parks at both ponds (The site and car park at Frensham Little Pond is managed by the National Trust). Refreshments and toilets (including wheelchair accessible facilities) are also available at both ponds. Sailing on the Great Pond is only for members or the guests of Frensham Pond Sailing Club. Angling on both ponds is for members of Farnham Angling Society. Please note fishing is not permitted until 16th June on site.
