We have just returned from Commons wood site. We were visiting family nearby. Friendly and helpful welcome on arrival. Security barrier with fob provided. The site is adjacent to a large hospital but once on site this is not a problem. On the other side is a golf club where an outdoor celebration was taking place but this ended at around 10pm. We are used to peace and quiet so the noise of overhead aircraft was noticeable for us ( Luton airport). Of course when you weigh this up against the fact that this site is within close proximity of the capital and has all the other good aspects and facilities that you would expect from the Caravan club then don't be put off. I would definitely return to use for a purpose as in a visit to family or the capital city. The site has a large caravan storage area which may be relevant to your situation. Overall the site surved our purpose and we enjoyed our stay.
