Lurgashall questions

What’s the nearest station to Lurgashall?

The closest is Haslemere station, roughly 4.5 miles away.

Do you come to venues in the South Downs National Park?

Yes. Some venues there have rules about vehicles and ground, so check with yours. We will work to whatever the site needs.

Can the van park on grass?

Generally, if it is firm and dry. Soft, wet ground can trap any vehicle, so have a hard-surface back-up.

Where can the van park?

Less than you might think: a hard surface or firm, dry grass, with a clear way in. Send us a photo if you are not sure.

Do you take everything away?

The pitch is left as we found it. It helps to have bins near the hatch.

Do you fry it on site?

It is. We cook inside the van, so food is cooked there and then, rather than made in advance.

Are visitors included?

Yes. Just include them in your numbers.

Can the van come to Lurgashall?

We do. Lurgashall is one of the places we cover. Tell us your date and we will check availability.

A chip van compared with other options

Why us?

  • A clear quote before booking
  • Events in Lurgashall and across West Sussex
  • Fried fresh, not kept warm
  • No kitchen needed
