From the Prime Minister's announcements today, it looks like CLs will be able to open from 12th April.  Although we've not had formal notification from the Club, we've had plenty of provisional bookings from members who want to get in the queue for a pitch this year.  Our CL was almost fully-booked during our 'open' periods last year and we look forward to meeting friends old and new in 2021.

If you want to visit the beautiful lakelands of Shropshire, Birch Hill is an award-winning hideaway for members to relax and enjoy panoramic views across Shropshire, North Wales and the Cheshire Plain.

Ellesmere is a peaceful friendly market town in North Shropshire. Our CL is 2 miles from North Wales, 5 miles from Cheshire and 9 miles from Lady Margaret's Park Caravan and Motorhome Club site.

£17 per night including EHU. No charge to use our Wi-Fi.  Grassed hardstandings.  Dog friendly.  As a Covid precaution, we have added dedicated water taps for each outfit.

For more details, availability and online booking, please see our website - https://www.birchhill.co.uk

Nothing on the club website as yet but the BBC were on a site confirming 12th April for self contained outfits that's no site toilet/showers or cafe facilities etc.

That was my understanding - no communal buildings was the phrase I heard. That will probably have less effect on CLs than on full fat club sites but we wait for the details.

I hope toilet facilities are open as public toilet facilities on beaches and other public areas are open and not as clean or COVID secure as campsites.

They are not providing accommodation. My understanding for sites was no communal facilities, units would have to be self contained.

Just seen the latest from the Camping and Caravan Club. They are opening all their sites from 12 April but only for self contained units and tents as facility blocks will be closed until 17 May. Ready camp tents and pods  will not be available until 17 May.

The club may not have made an announcement yet because they are considering how much to reduce their prices by because of not being able to offer facilities. laughing

If you are reading this then, like me, you've kept safe. Very bored but well.

Keep smiling and carry on, there are plenty of pitches out there.
