Godrevy Upgrade

No radical change to the site layout really. I note the service pitches are in the lowest area that drains last and gets the muddiest. 

AS you know peedee it's been a long time coming

Interestingly, I’ve booked this site for 5 nights in June, I’ve heard nothing.

I am not familiar with the campsite but is there an obvious reason why the serviced pitches are not being made hardstanding?

David

Just looked on the booking section for this site and it shows pitch full until August 30th this year.

Freddy55 I suggest you contact the call centre at head office to find out re your booking.

A bit expensive for end of August nearly £42.00 a night on grass !

It’s very sandy soil, David, almost an extension of the dunes. The ground drains quickly after rain but the bottom row of pitches is at the lowest part of the site and is always the last to dry. It’s the only part I would avoid. There are no HS at all at Godrevy and I suspect it could be a planning restriction. JK may well know more having been the warden there for several years.

Thanks, TW. I suspected it might be something like that. I think they had a similar issue at Incleboro Fields but that looks as if its been overcome? Just out of interest has the NT got any influence over the situation in that area?

David

I had exactly the same with Tredegar park,no e-mails,no letters,no confirmation, either way,nothing, even though it was reported.

When you do contact the sites department,they read exactly what we can see on the sites page.

Not to my knowledge, David. Godrevy is NT property but the (misnamed?) club site is at Gwithian adjacent to Upton Towans as you can see on the map. I don’t know whether the nearby campsites have HS.

It does drain very well and you are very unlikely to get stuck in wet conditions but the pitches can get dire from awning carpet damage. I was a regular visitor at the end of the season when pitches can be in a terrible state. It got so bad I stopped using the site. A couple of none awning pitches were introduced, one of them is ok but in my view there should be more or a ban on awning carpets should be introduced. The latter is no real hardship.

I assume with serviced pitches the peg won't be able to be moved!
