Nice enough site – could be better

Stayed here for two weeks in July. Quite expensive for a CL with what I regard as basic facilities but there is a shower and toilet on site. At £18 per night I would expect serviced pitches but all you get is a basic hardstanding pitch with only 10amp electric. The grass is only cut once a pitch is vacated, so in the two weeks we were there the grass around our pitch was never mown. The site is next to some craft workshops and you look onto the back of them which is a bit of a scrap yard, could do with some better fencing to hide this as it really spoils the site. Every other Sunday there is a Car Boot Sale in the field behind the site and all the people and cars visiting this vacate through the centre of the site, although the owner does rope off the road (driving over your electric hook-up lead if you are unfortunate enough to be on the pitch we were on, a rubber cable protector is provided but it’s held together with Duck Tape - it was cancelled when we were there due to bad weather). The village pub is OK and only a short walk. No phone signal on most networks. Fairly good location for visiting the area. Nice enough site but could be so much better especially at the prices charged.

Comment from The Club
Many thanks for your review.  The CL owners have been in touch as they want to address your concerns as they make every effort to ensure people have the best possible stay at their site.

" I would like to thank Vals2904 for the comments regarding Hutton-le-Hole CL.  We always listen to comments both good and bad and are continually trying to improve our CL Site.
However I would like to clarify some points in the above review.
We have five level hard standing pitches with 10amp electric hook ups, the price is £18 per night as advertised in the Caravan Club Handbook and on their Website.  We do not claim to have serviced pitches.
It is our policy to cut the grass around the pitches only when vacated.  This is to avoid the inconvenience to the Caravanner of moving cables, awning supports, tables, chairs etc.  If a member would like the grass cutting arouund their pitch we are happy to do this and we now display a sign in the washing up area clearly explaining this.
The private compound to the rear of Vals2904 pitch is a store for a working fork lift (1974), box trailer, a roller and various bags of sand, gravel and general building supplies and equipment.  This is there to enable us to carry out our own property and caravan site maintenance.
I have taken Vals2904 comments on board and have improved the existing 5ft high paling fence to make it more solid.
We hold approximately 10-12 Car Boot Sales a year - they are not every fortnight as the member was led to believe.  Everyone is informed when making a booking if a Car Boot Sale is on during their stay.   We always make sure that the Caravanners cable is not on the road when the Car Boot Sale is on.
I am sorry that Vals2904 did not enjoy our stay with us and I feel that raising these points as they occur on site means that issues can usually be resolved quickly and in most cases quite easily."

Thank you for leaving your review and I hope this addresses some of your concerns.
