Tilgate Park

About this park

Tilgate Park Hound Ground in Crawley, West Sussex, offers a secure and expansive space for off-lead dog exercise within the beautiful grounds of Tilgate Park. This 0.8-acre enclosed paddock provides an undulating natural ancient woodland environment, complete with various plants, bushes, and trees for sensory stimulation and exploration. Dog owners will find fallen tree trunks for their dogs to jump on or for a convenient rest, with the tree canopy offering ample shade. Sessions for the Hound Ground are booked for 55 minutes, accommodating up to six dogs, making it ideal for individual use or shared with friends. The location behind the Walled Garden is easily accessible from a path surrounding it, approximately a 10-minute walk from the main car park's toilet block. Visitors are advised to bring their own water and a travel bowl for their dogs, as well as waste bags, though a dog waste bin is conveniently located by the Hound Ground gate. Tilgate Park itself provides a range of amenities for visitors, including pay-and-display parking in the main and fisherman's car parks. While the Hound Ground itself doesn't have toilets, the main car park offers facilities, and a dog wash is available nearby. The park manager's contact number is provided for any immediate needs during your visit to ensure a pleasant and safe experience for all.
