We stayed here for 3 nights in mid November and were pleasantly surprised how peaceful and quiet it is, a nice site for both stop-offs and longer stays if you drive. The toilet facilities are clean and warm, if a bit dated and the wardens were very friendly and helpful. The farm shop at the end of the road is good for top-ups and you can get discount showing your membership card. We took a bus into town - only 1 an hour unfortunately - it's a bit of a slog into the city in bad traffic so we left earlier than we'd usually do. Birmingham has great shopping but is a bit of a mess otherwise, once was enough! We enjoy geocaching too and had a nice walk along the footpaths around the nearby golf course, finding some of the ingenious cache "boxes"!
