I suspect a lot of members are also members of other clubs and groups. I'm also a member of the Caravan and Camping Club, the Motor Caravaners Club and our own Owners Group. I was delighted to be informed by the Caravan and Camping Club that they effectively reducing their membership fees this year by 3 months and the site fees do not appear to have increased either. We are attending a wedding near Leek over August bank holiday, so naturally we will be staying over for 3 nights in the motorhome.
Now oddly, both the Caravan and Motorhome Home Club and the Camping and Caravan Club have club sites and are actually adjacent to each other. So naturally we compared costs. Over the 3 nights, the C&CC is over £30 cheaper! Last year I noted something similar at the Sandringham sites. Yes there is a difference in the way the sites are kept maybe, but £10 a night's worth?
I don't know why the "Club" is now doing Temporary Holiday sites when they are in t he £30 a night bracket when the competition offers the same or similar events for between £8 and £12.
I have just paid my membership fees for this year, but I think I'll be going to CLs from now on.
