Adult only sites & number of dogs

We have used AO sites on a few occasions, mainly because they have been the best site in the area we were visiting and we have not had the grand children with us.

As for the CC introducing them, I personally think it would be totally against the ethos of the club and see no reason for them to go down this route when they are easily available  via the search sites already mentioned in this topic.

Just to respond some of the earlier comments.

A few people like to trot out the expression that "children are the future of our Club". Well, I'm not so sure.

The fact is that the more mature campers are the ones with disposable income. They are also the ones who have the available time to spend on holidays......not just two weeks in the summer and the odd weekend, when junior hasn't dictated that he/she wants to do one of their many other pastimes.

Older (retired) people will fill the mid-week pitches.

They are, in summary, the target audience for the CC (and other leisure organisations) and are, in effect, the secret to the future prosperity of the Club.

 

I won't grace posts with comments about 'not liking children' with a comment, other than to say that I hope that a moderator or member of staff will remove such disgusting comments.

This is a friendly forum and such comments are unwelcome here.

I don't recall any unfriendly comments at all! Furthermore, I see none that need removing as all to my knowledge have entered into this discussion with friendly and positive comments and suggestions. 

I, at a very early age, was introduced to this pastime of ours by my parents and, my children, by Mrs YSF and me. I reckon a goodly number of us came this way! Us older ones are already well and truely hooked, and catered for in my opinion. Yes we oldies do need to be considered but the new target audience should be the next generation and their children. I reckon that makes for a very sensible business focus. Afterall, they are the future, families and their children that is!

Couldn't agree more, Micky. The problem is, as we've seen in the past, that some folk won't accept views different to their own as being anything but "twaddle". Let's not get moderators involved more than absolutely necessary. There aren't any posts referring to children on this thread that need removing; all views are equally valid.Smiley smiley!

+1 there Smiley smiley

reasonable idea, M....

my only issue is that, folk might wish to search for 'adult focussed', 'children focussed' or other site attributes, but given the situation with the current 'system', it will probably return all sorts of answers, with not all of them being accurate...

its long been thought that a selection of 'non-ehu' (CL searches) might be achieved, yet something as simple as this seems totally beyond delivery...

its great having more descriptives/attributes but having to trawl each site manually to be able to read them would be a struggle.....

I guess there wont be any more search attributes introduced until the search can return accurate results based on the ones we already have...

however, i agree with your suggestion, just not confident ots real usefulness can be deliverd.   

They do seem to be working on it BB. At least the ideal for beach holidays seems to have been removed from Cirencester.👍

Well for main sites searches you can filter by the ideal for families button so adding an extra search button shouldn't be too difficult? should it?

I suppose you can search for more 'adult focused' (need a better title though) by making sure that your preferred site does not have this icon, but agree that is a bit of a chore. There is a peaceful icon search, does that imply it is not normally full of children?

Our children's entertainment was with us inside the caravan so a playground was not on our list.
