Do pitch fees include one or two adults?

"Talking about two separate things here. One is an attempt at Marketing, ie Club putting up the cheapest possible “from” price it can for each Club Site. This used to be based on a pitch fee, and two persons staying. As prices have gone up, that tempting offer dwindled in eye catching opportunity, so the Club opted to show the “from” price as pitch fee plus one person staying."

If you are going to quote a "From" price, then by definition, this will, or should be, always the cheapest fee available (unless further defined as "for two adults" or some such).

I make no comment about the rights or wrongs of quoting a "From" price; you're right of course that this is a marketing trick, but I think most people are fully aware of it and know that only a small number of customers would benefit from it.

If you are right that the "from" price used to be for the pitch and two adults then this was (a) Incorrect and it is right to correct it and (b) probably due to the fact that most customers were couples. Maybe with an increase in single caravaners they chose to change this. 

In any event, it doesn't matter; the "from" price is mostly irrelevant. 

If you double the "from" price it will probably be a bit nearer the actual 'minimum' you will pay.

Yes, it was never correct to give “from” as pitch +2. Clearly, pitch+1 will be cheaper. More likely the use was your b).

I do however disagree with your paragraph that most people will be aware of this, maybe most Members. The unwary being lured into joining might not be quite so clued up. It always pays to dig a bit deeper before parting with one’s cash😉😁 

I could be wrong, but I seem to recall it was the addition of EHU in the mid 1990’s that gave rise to the pitch price+ occupants. I am sure we only used to pay a set fee per night at Marazion prior to this. 🤔 Someone will recall better than me no doubt.
