We used Commons Wood as an overnight stop on the way to Sandringham. We have both reached the stage where two hours driving, especially around the M25, gets tiring so it was an ideal place for us. No idea what Hubbyboo is on about re the Wardens. We stayed for one night on 12th September, the lady warden was polite, welcoming and had the job down pat. Her male partner, a Scottish chap was charming and explained everything to us. No problems at all. The site itself is on the small side, no evidence of being packed in at all, I suppose its a personal perception. If there is no where to take the kiddy winks the answer is to find somewhere else, make it an adult site so we all know from the start. The facilities are in need of a bit of tlc but obviously haven't reached the top of the redo pile as yet. The family next door had been into London and arrived back afterb 10pm. We never heard them or the many others who came back after the Proms in the Park stuff. Forest walk was excellent, gave to pooch plenty of room to wear herself out. Might be an idea to have some sort of map of the forest and the trails. One to return to for sure.
