Cirencester Park access road

If they can't do a proper Job David then I am simply not playing just like KjNellNN and doubtless others. It's a shame but there it is. The CMC have had opportunity and not mage much of an attempt as far as I am aware. 

But despite all that the site is full to the rafters so its not putting many people off!!!  If that continues the Club won't be worried about a few that won't go because of a perceived problem with the approach road.

I've got four miles of narrow road to get in and out of the house - much of it single track, with unmarked passing places tucked into granite hedges  - to avoid milk tankers, muck spreaders, school buses and delivery vans in a hurry. It says something about the driving confidence of Club members that a few hundred metres of narrow road at Cirencester has produced over 320 posts on here so far.

More than a little different. Presumably, at some stage, you need to return home. There is not the pressing urgency for me to return to Cirencester CMC.

Also for me if the club could not be fussed (the polite word) in ensuring a proper job and consider a 3m track to be adequate as a multi use track on a site that generates plenty of foot traffic then I cannot be fussed revisiting.

 

 

Well it would not put that many off at present time would it David? Firstly I doubt that many arriving were aware of the poor design of the changes. I have noticed that many reviews mention the poor access. 

As for being 'full to the rafters - many club sites are. For me it is just as much that if the CMC can't be fussed ensuring a safe width for multi use I cannot be fussed in using the site. 

For me the site offers nothing that Burton on the Water does not. (same can be said for Morton in the Marsh or many a site) A lot of its popularity is down to the ease of walking into Cirencester itself, with the added incentive to dog owners of the parkland. For me no great incentive as in either case on a 5 night stay I am not likely to visit any nearby town more than once and I have a car. Also we have no dog.

 

I think that I have only used the site once and our pitch was fine but many I seem to recall required that you park in front of the outfit - not something that I like. Cirencester itself we have visited from another site also. We were booked in there as part of our cancelled spring holiday. 

Staff come and go. We have spent a lot of time at Cirencester and have always found the wardens excellent. One even sorted me out with some  liquid to remove some obscene graffiti that some undesirable had scrawled on our caravan during an on route stop.

Agree to some extent re the pitches. There are a lot of narrow ones and some with undesirable slopes. The area known as millionaires row is fine, as is the huge grass area and all the new service pitches, which we have booked in September, so the only communal facilities we need to use will be the CDP.

Just shows what one "poor?" experiance at a site ,makes for missing out on the far more positives that would be on next trip,  ,and many pitches at Cirencester as we have experianced have plenty of room
