I run a “basic CL” or “Off Grid CL” and have been asked by a couple of members to start a new discussion about the Non-EHU Sites List and Google Map we have created so that others so inclined may find it of use.

SO IF YOU USE OFF GRID CLS YOU MAY LIKE THE FOLLOWING and you can see how many Non - EHU (Off Grid) CAMC CLs are out there!
I have produced a sheadsheet database of the CAMC non EHU (Off Grid CLs)
It is available for anyone of view with the link. Click here to open the Non EHU CL sheet
The default view of the sheet should be CLs sorted by County. There are currently 434 listed on this sheet along with the postcodes. You can scroll up and down the list on the right vertical scroll bar and left & right on the bottom scroll bar. There are links to the CLs page listing on the CAMC website in column 5 which should open a separate page and take you there, to the right of that there will be a blue dot if they have images to view. To the right of this is a range of facilities available a dot against CLs row means available. If you view the Non EHU CL Google sheet by clicking a sharing link or from the link above on this page on a computer you will be able to sort data by filtering what you do or don’t want (there are some “filter views” already set up! “A-Z County”, “A-Z CL Name” , Postcode, etc)
Look for Filter Views along the icon menu bar above the sheet for  to the right will be a down arrow if you click that it will show the filterviews already set up go down and click the one you wish to view. You can also you hover over the top on the right of the column header (the cell where the letters are) a down type arrow will appear or if you see  you will be able to sort sheet, click it and click sort A-Z (this work on the the dots as will group them all together!)

We have now produced a Google Map to show the location and info of each of the non EHU/Off Grid CLs visited in the April 2018 updated database Click here to view. You can zoom in on the area you are interested in and click the icons, this will bring up the data on the CL.

If you find an issue or would like us to edit/add an entry please leave a comment on the sheet page or email me. We will update the Google sheet monthly after going through the Club Magazine CLs update page.

If the links dont work both are available via your website https://newtongrove.co.uk/find-a-non-ehu-cl/

Johnny, this is the reply I've just received from Patch Elm Farm

thanks for this yes we have elec hook up, always have and still don't know why the book states not.

Thanks

There is definitely something strange going on with the web site. I wonder how many others that I've not noticed are in the same boat?

A Happy New Year to all those who follow this thread.
I am still keeping the Off-Grid Sheet & Map up to date!
Hopefully you will be able to visit some Off-Grid CLs during 2021smile
The good news is the Facebook Caravan & Motorhome Off-Grid Group continues to grow - now 12,400+ members - https://www.facebook.com/groups/CAMOGG
I was just looking at the original post above in April 2018 we had 434 Off-Grid CLs to chose from, today we have 372 a loss of 62 = almost 2 a month! There were 4 off-grid CLs this month in the January magazine which closed!

Hi John , and a Happy New Year to you. It’s been a good year as far as membership of CAMOGG has gone. 12,500 members now but the CAMC CL’s are disappearing virtually before our eyes. It’s not just Off Grid sites but EHU sites too- Why? Something has to be done to reverse this trend and I think encouraging people to look at the new technologies and go Off Grid is a big step to stopping these wonderful little Off grid  sites from giving up and closing.  Again, thanks for all you do. 2021 I’m sure will bring more opportunities to introduce ourselves to more Caravanners and Motorhomers who are looking for ways of reducing costs or just wanting to do things a little differently!

It is a worry that we are losing so may CLs cry
Our club should encourage sites to start as an Off-Grid CL its a good way and with little outlay to start a CL. A lot of existing CLs may have started this way and over time added other facilities.
Certain members may want more and more facilities but it seems more also want less and cheaper because they can be more independent. They just need somewhere to park! - As we can see in posts in CAMOGG
There is a great series of Off-Grid YouTube mini-series Videos made by Dave Thompson’s - DTSquared Channel on Youtube
Episode 1 “OFF-GRID#1 - CAMOGG Facebook group.”
Episode 2 “Electrical Theory Made Easy”
Episode 3 “ALLPOWERS 372Wh Portable Solar Generator Demo”
Episode 4 “CALCULATE YOUR OFF-GRID POWER USAGE” including a spreadsheet to help you!

According to CAMC webpage, EHU is to be installed at Lily Cottage during the early part of this year. Judging by the price (£17) I would guess that reflects the upgrade.
