It's a trifle, certainly, but with the world in its current state, no one should feel too guilty about indulging in Summerland's simple pleasures.

Spectrum Culture
Clearly the lens master relished getting outside and shooting the great British outdoors -- white cliffs, placid ponds, swaying wheat, and other sights to induce Wordsworthian swoons.

Rating: 2/5 --
Where films like The Railway Children and Hope and Glory handle the tricky balance between children's coming-of-age story and adult wartime drama perfectly, Summerland fudges it.

Time Out
It's good to see some gifted character actors among the supporting cast, notably Tom Courtenay, Siân Phillips and Amanda Root...
Hollywood Reporter
[An] amiable debut....Swaddled in the seablown watercolors of DP Laurie Rose’s bright, fresh photography, the story has the well-meaning simplicity of a kids classic.
Variety
Arterton shines as Alice Lamb, a reclusive folklore writer in the English countryside...
USA Today
Summerland is a well-meaning but ultimately failed work that is brought down by too much hackneyed melodrama and fatally bland execution.
