Southdown Gliding Club is located in a beautiful part of Sussex adjacent to the South Downs National Park and is principally a club for paid-up members who are experienced glider pilots or are training to get their glider pilots licence. The club also offers trial lessons and one-day courses to those thinking about gliding as a sport or leisure activity, or just as an experience to remember for the rest of their lives. It is a well-established club and was founded in the early days of aviation (1930).The club owns its own airfield and a fleet of 3 x 2-seater training gliders, plus 3 x single-seater gliders. We also have 3 x tug aircraft for towing gliders into the air. We also use a winch for a similar purposes. The club also has around 50 privately-owned gliders based at the airfield. Contact the club if you want to book a trial lesson or course, or even buy a voucher as an unforgettable present for someone.The club has a clubhouse and briefing facilities for its members which can be used by members of the public with permission or invite.Members of the public are welcome to visit the club and watch gliding activities providing they park in the designated area, and do not wander onto the airfield or go near aircraft unless accompanied by a club member.

We went down on a lovely late Summer, early Autumn day for a gliding experience with one of the pilots/instructors there. Arrived at the newly-refurbished clubhouse with good facilities and a warm welcome from the members around the airfield. I took my young children along as there was freedom to roam around a little (caution needed near the airfield!) and they had a lovely time seeing the comings and goings of the gliders and 'planes. There are different gliders to see - some very old , which we were fortunate to see out of the hangar, brought out as it was such a perfect day for gliding. The flight itself was enjoyable with my pilot Owen giving me excellent commentary and briefing throughout, from pre-flight all the way through. It's a lovely location in the countryside , which can be followed up with a pub lunch at any of the country pubs in a few mile radius. A thoroughly enjoyable day out!

On arrival you are instantly taken back in time 70 years.. A beautiful Art Deco style racing circuit set in beautifully kept grounds.. I was met by a friendly lady who explained where to park and where to go to sign in clearly and cheerfully. This being Covid times she also took our temperatures, which fortunately both myself and my girlfriend both passed. I was then pointed in the direction to park my car..This was in one of the original Paddock areas where some fantastic cars and drivers of the past have graced. I parked and walked over to the sign in point. Again met by friendly staff all wearing masks who offered hand sanitizer and handed us a Covid awareness form to fill out. Then onto the main sign in point at the rear of the Jackie Stewart building..Again friendly staff all wearing masks who checked my driving licence. I was pointed to the Driver briefing area where we were all given a briefing of the day and told where the refreshments and toilets are as well as where spectating can be done.. The drivers were all told to queue by the manufacturer flags were of the cars we were to drive. In my case Audi, as I'd opted for a V10 R8. After a few minutes Simon came over to me and led me to the car. A beautiful well kept R8. He then proceeded to wipe down all the contact points in the car with antiviral antibacterial wipes and then asked me to get into it. Simon is a very calm clear speaking instructor and I felt at ease with his easy to understand instruction and in no time I was giving the Audi full throttle and changing the paddle shift gearbox up and down and pushing the car hard. When my drive had finished I parked the Audi and then as my package included a Hotlap with an instructor in a BMW M3 waited by the flag for this.. Possibly the youngest member of Everymans very professional polite team gave me a crash helmet to wear as obviously the Hotlap with an instructor would be more dangerous than my drive in the R8.. After a short while Graham ( Who turns out to be the event Manager and also extremely fast driver) came to greet me. We got into a late Model again mint car but this time a BMW M3. I climbed in and buckled up. Graham switched on the engine and then turned off the toys as he said, being the Traction control and the ABS. He asked 'Had I enjoyed my day so far?" I obviously said "Yes". He said "You,re going to love this then". He wasn't kidding. I didnt realise the M3 was such a weapon. Within seconds of leaving the Pitlane we hitting the 1st bend. The speed was incredible as was his driving. The whole lap flew by and he showed his skill at taming this beast of a car along straights and tight bends.. I was grinning from ear to ear and thanked him so much for topping my experience off with something I'll never forget. Would I go again? What do you think?.. A million percent yes. Overall a fantastic experience with a very professional company in fantastic surroundings that is known as Glorious Goodwood.. Thankyou Simon and Graham. All the fantastic stewards and Goodwood..A day I'll never forget..And a huge thankyou to my girlfriend Stacey for a Brilliant day.

My husband and I came along with our 21 month old today and we all had such a lovely afternoon. The staff were so welcoming and the farm itself is very well looked after, my son loved seeing the animals and playing in the play area. We’ll definitely be returning to Dales Farm soon!
