Don't arrive late!

Usual Caravan & Motorhome Club standard but don’t expect to be let in if you arrive past 8pm! We were booked in last weekend but due to a hold-up on the M4 our SATNAV predicted an arrival time of 8:07pm. We called the site to explain and they said we would have to use one of the late-night arrival pitches. Sadly the warden was quite intransigent saying, in a very dead-pan and unfriendly manner, “Rules are rules – if you arrive past 8 you have to use the overnight pitch”. I realise it would be annoying to wardens if they kept having to open the barrier for people arriving late, but a few minutes – really? Not friendly at all! Isn’t this a club for the benefit of its members? This was just what you don’t want to hear after a 5 hour journey in heavy traffic on a hot Friday afternoon. On the brighter side we found a much better privately owned site the same distance from Cambridge. It was cheaper, just as clean and with a far more friendly owner who was quite happy to let us in after 8pm. We stayed in Cherry Hinton once last year which is why I can report that the facilities are up to the usual club standard but the site itself is in an old quarry so there’s lots of shade and apart from a few of the pitches you do feel as though you’re in a bit of a hole. We won't be staying there again.
