Dynamic pricing to be introduced

"I have seen people charging cars via granny cables"

It costs them £9 to do this so there is nothing illicit going on.

Hot tubs on a touring pitch running off a 16amp EHU supply? I very much doubt it! As for kitchen equipment, what is the difference between running an external cooking device and, say, the microwave or kettle inside your van? The supply is limited to 16 amp so there is not going to be usage in excess of about 3kw for everything and the cooking equipment will only be in use for as long as it takes to complete the task.

When it comes to deposits and booking terms, I think you will find the CAMC T&Cs are still more generous than many commercial or privately owned sites.

However, this thread is about dynamic pricing which is, essentially, the fluctuation in prices due to supply and demand. You may save money by booking early or, there again, you may not. At the end of the day, it’s up to each of us to do what is right for us as individuals.

Small inflatable hot tub @ 2KW = 8. 33 amperes @ 240 V so quite possible to operate on site however never seen and would give the site managers a problem to resolve. 

As for dynamic prices we have just returned from a popular east coast site which was approximately 60% occupied on the first week of school holidays but there was no dynamic lowering of prices to encourage bookings, looks like the dynamism only goes in one direction. 

Don't see why it should give the site managers a problem to solve although I would rate it as being just as much waste as heating an awning which has, as yet, not been banned as far as I am aware. With metered electric I do not see it as being a problem at all.

Well it would need water as well PD. From what I've seen anywhere a small one will need about 20 aquarolls to fill it. Then all that water has to be drained, in wastemasters as one isn't allowed to drain water onto pitches. It would need a SP?

So I wouldn't worry too much, I've never see one on a club site and I'm sure it would have been mentioned on here by now? But nothing to do with DP.

I don't see any use of electricity within the 16A as a problem at all, metered or not, but that's a different discussion and OT so I'll leave that there 

Nevertheless CS, it could be done.

Let a campsite provide it for you.  Woodovis Park on Devon Cornwall border has hot tub + sauna + indoor heated pool. Overnight price from start of September is 23 euros for visitors with an ACSI Camping Card . Recommended.

A lot of things can be done with the appropriate effort (and/or a SP) and if someone wants all that effort and as it's apparently allowed they're welcome to do it in my view. Now again OT so I'll leave hot tubs there too.

This one is definitely on our must visit list. In a beautiful area as well, we love Tavistock. 

We know of a CL that allowed hot tubs. It featured on a caravanning reality show, so possibly a one off.

We have also stayed on a wonderful CL that had both a heated swimming pool, and a spa pool. It was £12 per night (yes…£12, and for that you got HS, hook up, loos and showers separate from pool ones.) Use of pool was £3 each for as long as you wanted.

There would be nothing to resolve. I’ve just stumbled across this site rule.

Does that mean that toddler sized paddling pools are also banned? - seems very OTT in my opinion.
