Time for change
I have been coming to this site for many years to spend my main summer holidays. Most arrive early as its a lottery as to what pitch type you get, i.e. grass, hardstanding, under trees, sloping pitch or near park areas.
After my experience this year of having to spend two weeks on a wet, damp, overused and smelly grass pitch i feel its time for a change here. The club should give the consumer, us, the choice to stay either on a particular pitch or pitch type, grass or hardstanding. By giving us the choice would determine whether we stay here or use another site with choice.
This year I arrived very early and still got a grass pitch which was already wet and muddy on arrival, many pitches had been moved forward of their original position because of the conditions encroaching on other pitches giving a cramped feel. Weekenders arrive and have a better choice than people spending a long time on a pitch. I put my comments into the comments book and the reply from the warden team was "Cornish weather eh!!" not really the answer to this problem people are seeking
If people were able to choose a pitch when booking and knew where they were going to be there would not be a need for the many caravans that arrive early overnight to get the best pitch thus alleviating the mad rush, subsequently if a desired pitch was unavailable then we can make that conscious decision if we go or not.
We as a family love this site which is why we return year on year but i`m fed up of the lottery.
Many people i know like a grass pitch as i do but do not wish to spend 2 weeks on a muddy and smelly pitch and would like the choice due to the fact that on this site all pitches are classed the same regardless of hardstanding or grass. The club would gain extra revenue by charging a little extra for a guaranteed hardstanding pitch if so desired. The club does this at many other sites so why not here?
Due to this years experience i am considering going somewhere else for the first time in years.
