Good to visit Birmingham

Visited here for three nights last week. Tidiness of site and cleanliness of facilities of usual high Club standard. Facilities block we used nice & warm. Wardens pleasant & helpful. We went to Birmingham one day. We are motorhomers so couldnt use the park & ride at Whitlocks end (there is a height barrier), so got a taxi from the site to station & same on return (£6-£7). Trains are every 20 mins from Whitlocks End. Wythall station is nearer but trains only every hour. We wanted to visit the Staffordshire Hoard & visit the canals - both of which we did. The bus from outside the site is every hour and takes a circuitous route to Solihull. It does call at both Wythall & Whitlocks End, but takes its time getting there. Having bus passes, we decided to take the bus to Solihull on one day - we wern't sure what to expect, but it is a pleasant, compact shopping centre. There is an open High Street and an under cover shopping centre. Lots of big names - John Lewis, M & S, Waterstones, Lakeland, Hotter etc etc and a few independents. We didnt intend to shop - but we did! There is a small bit of Old Solihull at the end of the High Street near the church. Bus journey took about an hour but if you are interested in suburban & rural housing and like bus journeys it was quite interesting. If you want to go to a supermarket by bus, there is a big Sainsburys at Maypole - about 20 mins along the bus route. Having only had the motorhome this year (caravanners before) this was the first drive over waste point we had used - so much better then lifting manholes! A bit of road noise, but nothing to trouble our sleep. Awning pitches are on gravel & have grass in between - so no expanse of tarmac. A convenient site which we would be happy to revisit.
