Gate Farm CL
Fen End Road,
Solihull.
CV8 1NW
Date visited – March 2022
Unit - Car/Caravan or Motor-home
Price per night - £20.00 incl 12 units of Electricity per night (then 0.25p per unit thereafter)
This is a Caravan Club CL
Access to the site is through electrically operated gates which require a key-fob (provided at check-in) to operate after 7pm. The CL site is further down the track passing the homes of the owners to the site gate adjacent to the caravan storage area and is securely located in the centre of the farm with exceptional views across the valley and surrounding farmland and offers enhanced fully serviced hardstanding pitches which will accommodate caravan and awning, car will need to be parked on the grass. 16amps electric hook-up with 12 units per night are included per night, (after that a charge of 25p per unit is added and needs to be paid on the day of departure) also free Wi-Fi is available, we did find we had to sign back into the network each day. The site is close to Birmingham Airport so planes pass intermittently, but at other times the site is peaceful and has no light pollution.
The main entrance to the farm is secured with automatic gates which are operated after 7pm by a supplied key fob.
The site is motorhome friendly (maximum length 8.5 metres) and has ground-level disposal points at each pitch. Dogs are welcome but, because there are farm animals here, dogs must be kept on a lead at all times. There are no dog walks on site but there are adjacent footpaths.
This site is approx 20 minutes drive to the National Exhibition Centre, (so useful for Caravan Shows and Crufts), Birmingham Airport and Kenilworth village. Local shops are within 3 miles, we had a meal at the local Italian Restaurant Tipperary Inn food was very nice but a tad pricy.
The Heart of England Way long distance path passes the site and crosses other shorter distance footpaths.
National Trust’s Packwood House and Baddesley Clinton - all within easy reach on minor roads, both have good walks and cafes.
Booking this site must be done via their website caravan.gatefarm.org/ and payment made in full. The owners were very friendly and were available when needed.
