CL Prices not always up to date on Club website

Obviously not all driven from the same database if it was perhaps the sat nav POIs would be updated more frequently. Must be very labour intensive as it is. Cost could be cut if there was a common data base.

Prices and information about CLs in the Handbook are down to the CL owner adviseing the club of any updates ,which would have been included when the book was being updated some time in spring? last year ,before publication in the autumn ,

There is a possibility HQ staff are not in the office, so updating CL information isn’t getting done as quickly as possible? But as JVB says, it is up to the CL owner to check all the information given out in various forms is correct. Some CLs go years without updating, it can be a bit of a pain.

Perhaps it should be printed as "Prices on application"

The thread about Blueys Farm on this CL section its a good example of not keeping up to date. The website shows £15 and this price was entered on 01/07/20 yet 1 month later a reviewer states that the price is £20 per night.

As always it's best to treat the price shown on the Clubs website with a degree of caution and ask the owner before agreeing to stay, preferably by email if possible.

This has a thorny issue for a number of years. Some CL owners are on the ball, others can't be bothered and I daresay there may be one or two who deliberately leave it and catch some people unaware.

£5 per night increase, looks like they are trying to get the money they have lost due to COVID shutdowns back

The website price saying from £15 and site says EHU available. Probably £20 includes EHU

I know for a fact that Hall Croft was £15 with electric at the new year because I had it booked and I always confirm  the price. With an increase like that I won’t be going next new year.

Would not put me off as it looks worth it to me

The point being raised here though JVB is that for the CL mentioned, the handbook is more "up to date" than the Club website, when usually it is the other way round.

Some prices given that I have come across can be as old as from 2017, and no doubt there are even older ones.
