Become a Certificated Location

The Caravan Club has a network of some 2,500 informal 5-van sites, for the exclusive use of Caravan Club members. With Certificated Locations (CL's) becoming increasingly popular with members (with a third of them already using CLs as their favourite type of site), the Caravan Club welcomes applications from prospective CL owners, and will help and guide you through the application process. To find out more look at the Landowners Leaflet (pdf opens in a new window 245kb).

What is a CL?

Each year we issue a certificate to those sites which continue to meet our standards and for this reason we call them CL's. They are covered by a special Act of Parliament and need no site licence or formal planning permission. They can be on a farm or smallholding, at a pub or golf course, even on land attached to your house.

What are the advantages of running a CL?

  • Make income from an otherwise unproductive plot of land
  • Set and retain all the income from pitch fees
  • Planning permission is not required
  • Free listing in the Caravan Club Sites Directory and Handbook and on website
  • Attract a new market for your produce or facilities
  • The opportunity to meet fresh faces and make new friends
