The Club have released more details of the new Booking System here
There are still finer details still to be arrived but the link (thanks Harry) sets out how the new system will work.
I have closed the previous thread on when we will get details of the new booking system and opened this one to allow comments specifically on the new system rather than discussing what they might be.

Posted on 13/01/2022 12:06 by JVB66We meet friends who do not have LVs each year ( covid exception)and they all stay in static and bungalows on the same complex as us
Posted on 13/01/2022 13:49 by SteveLAs an aside if they do see themselves as a player in this field they will need to offer more than statics or pods in the middle of nowhere without the facility of pools restaurants etc
Each to there own, but personally I see that as a USP and I’m sure I’m not alone.
Posted on 13/01/2022 13:04 by JVB66That what we have thought., Until we have looked at them ,they have come on in leaps and bounds in the last few years,

Is that still about pods?
One of us in my family has said for years , “We have rented a house in the Scillies, or Brittany, orProvence, or Raileh beach at Krabi, or Koh Samui ..are you in with us?”.
Vegan food is this year’s fad. Pods were the fad two or three years ago. I hope this club knows what they are doing.

There are various levels. A lot of folk are probably thinking about the first ones they installed, which you can still hire if you want basic. However, as you say the more upmarket versions have en-suite and TV’s. The big selling point for me would be the fact you can rent for as little as two days. Many providers have a minimum of a week.

Afternoon
You're far from alone Steve. Experience Freedom has proved very successful, lots of families joining up on site with others in their tourers. I'm sure it will grow more in the next couple of years
. I'm even booking one for a week in the summer so the family can all get together. Bit of a strange concept to some I guess but people like meeting up on our sites, who'd have thought!
Good job we're all different eh?

Posted on 13/01/2022 13:30 by young thomas...but as AD mentions upthread....the place you visit has amenities, pool etc.
we use a site in Oxfordshire in summer and winter....has pool, bar, restaurant etc which just adds to the fact that it's in walking distance of a lovely town.
the lodge we used last summer also had major facilities on site...
can't see the point of a pod in a field without even its own bathroom and no other facs on site...compare this to the resort sites in France and Spain...

As I mentioned above they do have bathrooms. Plus as is evidenced from the difficulty of getting on a CAMC site at busy times, a fair few folk are very happy with a non resort site. From a personal point of view we avoid them as much as possible.
Posted on 13/01/2022 09:19 by KjellNNDo the pods have toilets and showers? And cooking facilities?

Depends what you man by pod? A pod on a club site is not the same as a pod elsewhere. On club sites pod are wooden cabins with heating and lighting and I think power outlet, cabins are better equipped and have large lounge area, toilets, showers, large tv (with separate inputs for playstations), power and USB sockets, fridge, and best of all for us a diswasher!
