Date of Visit: August 2011 Unit:  Motorhome
Reviewer: Vodkapizza 2 reviews from this member

 Our first night away in our first ever camper van. Absolutely loved everything about it! Site amazing, made very welcome by Angela & Marc.

Facilities immaculate, and such a relaxing setting. Nice walk into Meriden (about twenty minutes) for a quick pint, then back for a relaxing bite to eat under the Pine trees.


Easy access to site, and hardstanding pitches well serviced. All dogs have to be kept on a lead, which is fine with us.

Our labradoodle had a great time! Can't wait to go back there!

Reviewer: Rustmonkey 1 review from this member

 A lovely Adult Only Site, Set in Lovely Forest Surroundings. The Pitches are all large with Hardstandings and grassed areas. Our TT, Awning and car all fitted on the Hardstanding leaving the dog to have his own personal lawn to lie on (tethered obviously).

Facilities are first class. The Showers are proper cubicles (not shower curtains) and it was always clean. Staff are very friendly and the Dog walk is a disused road just outside of the Site.

The Site backs onto a lovely Golf Course which is very welcoming for visitors. The Course bar provides good food at reasonable prices.

Meridan (Centre of England) is small but Quaint. The Bulls Head pub is very nice and they allow dogs in the Bar area.

For the Golfer, this is a great Site with 2 Clubs within half a mile. For those who just want a peaceful break. This is perfect.

I would recommend this site to anyone who is looking for a break away from the kids.

 We visited Somers Wood for a long weekend with our folding camper and it is indeed a lovely site. It is quiet and serene - easy when it is for adults only. The facilities were lovely, clean, warm, quiet and lots of hot water.

It is also a fabulous area to visit. We had a great afternoon at the Bosworth Battlefield visitor centre and the choice of local country houses is mind blowing! Baddesley Clinton and Coughton Court are not to be missed.

It is definitely an area we would go back to again and again given the chance. Unfortunately we will not be child free every time so Somers Wood cannot be our full time home from home - shame.

Reviewer: Juliej56 6 reviews from this member

 Spotless site, very helpful friendly owners, excellent location and dogs welcome. Good walk via a gate on the site. Hardstanding good sized pitches with plenty of space between.

The shower block is better than some 4 star hotels with attention to detail, everything you need and absolutely spotless.

The location is lovely, next to the golf club and nature reserve. Stayed twice now when following our son playing cricket nearby.

Lovely walks, next to golf club which is open to all for golf and food.

We will be back when in area again!

 We have been doing a lot of travelling round the country this year and have visited many of the tranquil parks and adult only.

We chose this particular park as it was mid England on our way home from Yorkshire.

The park resembled a forestry commission site with tall trees and shaded areas the pitches are a good size with hardstanding the park is adjacent to a golf club and fishing lakes all eight of them which are beautiful to walk round

It was hard to imagine we were so close to built up areas like Birmingham and Coventry.

A quiet peaceful site with attentive wardens

The facilities were not bad but! the showers have only 1 drain in the middle between the 2 shower cubicles unfortunately if you were unlucky to be in the second shower you got all the water from the first shower a

Directions and approach very good no narrow lanes, would we return, yes if in area, would we recommend the park yes.

Reviewer: Magicmum 14 reviews from this member

 The best park we visited on our holiday during March and April. A wonderful welcome, and a very helpful owner with assistance for our electric hookup.

Beautiful surroundings, peaceful and picturesque. Shower facilities the best in the country, plenty of hot water, heated bathroom, privacy, places to hang things, hairdryers. Just lovely !

We found it very convenient for the NEC where we were heading for an exhibition, and close to plenty of other places of interest.

Definitely recommend Somers Wood if you want to experience the way a caravan park should be.

 What a lovely site, great facilities ! Lots of wildlife especially birds. Very quiet and so handy for the NEC - Birmingham international. Taxi cost about £6 to the NEC. Meriden is a nice little village - you gotta try the fish and chip shop (be prepared to queue at the weekend - its that good). We've booked another weekend here next May. Well worth a visit and its adults only

Reviewer: Steve Worsley 1 review from this member

 We were lucky enough to take advantage of a 4-nights-for-3 offer at Somers Wood Caravan Park earlier this month. In fairness we didn't expect too much from a campsite in meriden, but we are delighted to have been pleasantly surprised.

Arrival at Somers Wood showed the applied security at the site. This meant leaving our caravan for a walk etc. Was easy with no worries of burglary or vandalism. The site itself is nothing short of immaculate. The pitches are well laid out with sufficient room for our caravan, awning and MPV all on hard-standing.

Amenities we're the same. Hot powerful showers, pristine wash and toilet facilities, easy access water and refuse areas. The lot. The staff were helpful, friendly and pleasant.

Downsides: 4 nights is simply not enough time to visit this most picturesque site and the nearby village of Meriden. Well done. You'll be seeing us again. Steve & Anna.

 This has got to be by far the best site we have visited so far.

The site itself is absolutely amazing, it is so peaceful,quiet and extremely well maintained.

Its not to far away for visits to local attractions and Oxford was a great day out too.

The shower blocks are really spotless, I used the disabled shower block that is located on its own, it was absolutely fantastic, and had everything you would expect in your own bathroom, plus it was as clean as you would expect your own bathroom to be.

I cant wait to go back and we are even contemplating hiring the chateau in France that the owner have if possible.

The little village 5 Min's drive away has everything you need if you run out and also the best fish shop I have been to in a long time.

This is truly a site well worth a visit.

Reviewer: Mrs E 44 reviews from this member

 We stayed for 2 nights as we were attending a Christening in Hampton in Arden over the weekend. So for us, the location was near perfect.

Angela was very helpful over the phone when my husband made the booking, asking us where we'd like to be pitched (due to satellite coverage for Sky boxes I think?).

We arrived about 40 mins before the gate was locked (they lock them at 5pm and access is via a code so not a problem coming and going). Check in was smooth and we were given information about the park and the adjoining golf course which serves bar food.

The park was very clean and peaceful and we found the washblock exceptionally clean and of a high standard - plenty of very hot water!

Unfortunately we didn't see much of the park as we were out all day at my nephew's Christening on the Sunday.

We did ask about a late stay on the day we were due to depart which wasn't a problem as no-one was booked onto our pitch until the following day. However, we were unable to contact the boarding kennels back home to extend our dogs stay.

My only minor gripe about the park is that they charge the same price per night all year round (apart from when there are shows and exhibitions at the NEC and then the price increases a little more). I personally would like to see a seasonal variation in pitch fees. However, we hope to return sometime in the future to explore the surrounding area as the park itself is conveniently placed for touring the Midlands and Warwickshire.

Reviewer: Philip 22 34 reviews from this member

 We have just been to Summerswood for four nights and found positives about it, the wardens are friendly and helpful and the amenities are good and clean, but there are negatives. The site is easily found but on the pitch we had there was hardly any room, our van is not one of the largest but the back was on the grass area at the back and to put an awning up would need part of it to be on the grassy area also, the car is parked at the front of the van. Far from ideal. Although the disabled facilities are well thought out, the concern again is about the lighting which goes off leaving the person who is using the amenities having to look in the dark.

Reviewer: Milemasterroute@yah 1 review from this member

 A lovely warm welcome to a well maintained,secure and picturesque site. Facilities were clean and always warm. There was a dog walk on site. Meriden is 'the centre of England'and as such not too far from anywhere. The close surrounding area has many old and beautiful towns and villages but my undoubted favourite place was Cadburys-a must for all chocolate lovers.

The site owners and staff were helpful and friendly.

The laundry service was second to none and the site was secure thanks to a code entry at the entrance which was changed every week.Even the wildlife provided much entertainment ie squirrels bombarding all below with acorns-fun fun fun.Hope to be back next year.

Reviewer: Sarahp1786 2 reviews from this member

 One word sums up this site. excellent.

Ange and Mark bent over backwards to help us and were willing to squeeze us in extra nights if it helped us out as I was undergoing treatment at a hospital.

The toilets were spotless and a the showers had a constant supply of hot water.

There were plenty of water points and the whole site was incredibly secure.

Everyone on the site was very friendly and chatty.

The village of Meriden is just up the road and the chip shop did excellent fish and chips. The pub food was also ok. There are local shops to buy any other necessities.

Birmingham was only 20 mins or so away.

This was a brilliant week away and I'll definitely be returning in the near future.

Reviewer: Thorpers4 6 reviews from this member

 Booked in advance for a 2 night break and found Sue extremely helpful, The site is very easy to find and like others thought the park was in a lovely setting with very nice clean showers and toilets. We didn't take a dog with us on this occasion but did have a walk around and would say it had some good areas to exercise one. Only negative is that when I booked I was asked if I wanted to put up an awning which I didn't and we were allocated a pitch by the gate which was only big enough for our caravan and the car parked along side, it did feel a bit like we had been left in the car park! albeit a very nice car park and in future would ask for a pitch on the main site. We will be visiting again very soon and I can see this becoming a regular destination for our W/e breaks.

Reviewer: LMD59 7 reviews from this member

 We had 2 nights on this site in July 2010. We received a very warm welcome and were shown to a nice spacious pitch near the toilet/shower block as we had requested.

The showers were lovely and facilities were very clean although there were only 2 showers and the inevitable queue. Only issue was the location of the washing up area right behind the open windows of the toilet block which removed any sense of privacy.

We did find that the noise from the motorbikes in the quarry broke the tranquillity.

Village nearby was lovely and had a good shop and an excellent fish and chip shop.

We would visit this site again.
