Amenity blocks closed until 17th May

Earlier in the thread it was noted that facilities could according to government guidelines be allowed to open. The club has obviously decided to be cautious and not open facilities on its sites.

I wonder if CL's are obliged to follow the C&MC lead or can if they wish decide to legally open toilet facilities.

I doubt that many CLs will be opening their facilities in the near future, even after the 17th May, because of all the extra work involved in ensuring that they are hygienic enough. It won't bother us we use our own facilities virtually all the time. We have no intention of using the facilities on a club site, should we visit one this year.

Why not simply accept that the CAMC is finally correctly acting on HMG guidelines?

I'm not arguing about what the C&MC site wishes to do and I do not wish to visit one at the present. I accept that is how they wish to go forward and this is not the question I raised..

As stated "Earlier in the thread it was noted that facilities could according to government guidelines be allowed to open"

I want to know if "CL's are obliged to follow the C&MC lead or can if they wish decide to legally open toilet facilities."

Colin

I doubt anyone other than a CL owner or club official has a clue about that, EM. 

I thought hospitality and retail sector businesses could open their toilets? I seem to recall leisure centres and gyms can open their showers and toilets.

This would seem to suggest the restriction is rather random (or new regimes have been mandated).

I don't really feel the need to post anymore on this topic. 

Just seen on another forum;

"CAMPSITE UPDATE – 30th March 2021
Great News!

We have now been told we can open ALL our washing facilities including the toilet and shower block with social distancing in place, from the 12th April.

We are currently looking at the details and will post further information when we know more.

Sorry for all of you who cancelled or transferred your bookings, we received a letter yesterday afternoon from Cornwall Council."

The site in question apologised to all those that had cancelled/postponed

I visit two CAMC sites in the Lake District on an annual basis, one with all-singing-all-dancing toilet blocks, the other with none. The nightly price difference is significant for that very reason. 

I have an end of April booking at the TOILET BLOCK site.

Will I now receive a discount due to the site being unable to meet its contractual obligations in providing toilet and washing facilities????

I doubt it and people will follow like sheep and accept  What I dont understand is that my golf club has opened, communal toilets and showers open. Motorway serviced toilets and showers open  Shops toilets open. Public toilets open. But the caravan club never makes a case for us!

And I will no cancel 4 sites and use smaller cheaper sites.
