I was bought a “gliding experience” by my son and The whole occasion from start to finish was exceptional. The club members were charming and enthusiastic and whilst I was the one having the flight, they included my wife and 2year old grand son in everything including sitting in a glider and the tractor to retrieve the gliders when they landed - a truly memorable day. Sam, my instructor was brilliant and allowed me to take the controls and explained all the mechanics of gliding. He asked me where I lived and made a point of flying as close to our house as regulations would permit. I felt totally safe and enjoyed the panoramic views on a beautiful sunny day. I would recommend this as a gift to anyone

This was a 2017 Christmas Present for my wife. I had booked her for 2 launches in a glider. The 2 launches - take-offs, were in the summer of 2018. She was thrilled to bits. The weather was fantastic with a clear blue sky. The photographs taken from the glider are amazing. For that special occasion this makes a memorable occasion.

We went as a party of eight plus some spectators. The staff took the time to make us feel very welcome and went through everything we needed to know. The process and order of the flights went extremely well and we were all delighted with the outcome. A nice friendly laid-back atmosphere. A lovely activity and thoroughly recommended to one and all.

Good friendly gliding club. Birthday voucher used at this venue. Unfortunately no thermals for proper gliding. Good instructor.

Really disappointed with this. Paid for 2 flights for my partner’s birthday. It was forecast to rain so we were advised to come earlier than our booked time, which we did, only to be told the “boss” had just gone for a flight. Considering they told us to come at 3pm I’m not sure why he had taken the plane at this time! We waited half an hour later until he landed and grey clouds came over. They told us we had brought bad weather with us!
They said to my partner that since he had 2 flights booked, they would do 1 flight of 20mins instead of 2 flights 10mins each, which was fine. They took my partner for a flight but landed it again 10 seconds later because of rain.
Instead of waiting for the rain to clear (which we suggested) they proceeded to launch another flight so they were in the air again for only a few mins! No apology for the short flights. Considering the price that was paid for this it was very disappointing and a waste of money!

My partner bought me 4 flights for my birthday and it was a great experience - the take off alone is worth the trip. The facilities are a little sparse but you don't spend too long there so it's not too much of an issue.

6 of us booked this a while a ago and we had a thoroughly good time. Some of the flights were longer than others but all had a great experience. Thrilling is an under statement. We are thinking of going again. The members/staff are very friendly and make the experience memorable. Do it; you won't regret it.

My son, purchased 2 glider flights for my Birthday. It was the most wonderful experience. A beautiful sunny, clear skies, hot day. The views were amazing.
My pilot even managed to fly over my house in Kenley and I was able to take some breath-taking photos. The service provided by the Surrey Hills Gliding Club was simply the best. Wonderful friendly staff and Glider Pilots. Go for it.

Kenley Aerodrome was one of a series of airfields the purpose of which was to dispatch fighter aircraft to counter German bombing raids. Because the airfield had been built on 'common land; owned by the City of London, the end of the war did not see the facility bulldozed for urban, suburban or commercial development. Instead, the runways, blast pens and a few of the original building remain in situ.
One can park on Hayes Lane by a gate that leads onto the airfield proper. The perimeters, a road that encircles the airfield is now a track for walkers, bikers and runners. Also around the edge are most of the blast pens, E-shaped revetments designed to protect aircraft and ground crew from bomb blasts. The nearest pen, on your left after entering through the gate, contains a monument to the airfield and its personnel. There are also two historical markers describing the use of the airfield during WW2.
As one walks around the perimeter track clockwise, other blast pens and signage come into view, Along the northeast side of the runways, one can walk to the buried fuel dump where remains of the equipment used to pump gasoline into tanker truck for delivery to aircraft can still be seen.
Under the sod at the side of the main runway are two Picket-Hamilton pillboxes that rise out of the ground in the event of an attack. Proceding on towards the hangers - site of a gliding club - one can see the fenced-off officer quarters and the NAAFI. As you go back to the gate, s small arms range can be seen.
Standing on the grounds of Kenley Aerodrome, one is close, very close to the Battle of Britain.
You'll need GPS to fins it but it's worth the effort. And don't miss eating and/or drinking at the nearby Wattenden Arms, a pub used by the airmen in the war and still operating.
