Amenity blocks closed until 17th May

The site fee would be have been booked  at £X/night with the expectation of full facilities. Now I fully accept that the closure of the facilities would have been known before arrival and payment.

However, the fact is some members do seem to believe that the CAMC is a Club in the true sense rather than simply a commercial concern like Asda and if the CAMC or Asda went out of business the void would very quickly be filled. If my local village pub went out of business the void may not be filled and the whole social aspect of the village would probably change for ever. 

If I was in effect considering to give money to a commercial enterprise it would be my local pub rather than a travel company. Possibly I am wrong and I should send a cheque tomorrow to TUI to tide them over the next few months.

I used to regularly use a site near Garstang when living on my own. I would often leave work at 11.45 on a Thursday and travel up there and leave early Monday for work. I think the showers were 50p. I had no complaints as the owner stored my van F.O.C. When I arrived the van would be ready sited and put into storage when I left. There were three fishing lakes/ponds and when I arrived around 1pm I was always told that the fishing was free.

There was also trout and Salmon in the river and canals and sea fishing.

It would appear that you are saying payment occurs before arrival? I know you have stated you don't use club sites often (if at all?) but actually you pay on arrival at a club site not before. Also no booking deposit was made, you can cancel at (almost) any time. You have lost nothing. But in any event if one knows the price then I assume one is happy to pay it, unlike your half pint analogy

the fact is some members do seem to believe that the CAMC is a Club in the true sense 

In which case they would consider supporting the club by paying the set price even though not all facilities are available?

You give your money to whoever you wish, personally I would support somewhere that sells pies?

"Really  you quote even a few? 

How is it that quite a few sites near public footpaths and other places of access to site by other than those on site ,there is information advising to "not give access to those who do not have access code/key to these facilities"

There are two that we have used within 60miles if here

No need to be rude AG I don't do that to you?

I can only reply to what you write and as read you didn't make that clear at all?

I read this post last night and thought the reason it didn't make much sense was because I was tired.

This morning, no change. At least two thirds of it seems to be an excuse to moan about the club and its members. You're not forced to be here but choose to be so I guess you must love it really.🤷‍♂️

I mooted a similar idea a couple years ago..Make all pitches fully serviced and charge a flat fee across the network..I think i mentioned around £40pn at the time...obviously on many sites that has now been surpassed even for a couple...I also mentioned a charge for more that 2 dogs....but I had to put my tin hat on for many moths after that !!!

 Where have you admitted that a "security system on doors" is open to abuse as i posted?
