advice on seasonal pitch

[mark_374355121]

hi im in a bit of a dilema,i booked a pitch in july 2007 for 2008 when i turned up at the site in april this year after making payment and arranging for my new caravan to be delivered to the site , i was told the pitch i had reserved and made payment for was no longer available and there were two pitches left .these two had been left for various reasons.i am now having great dificulty in tracking down an alternative and my new caravan has been returned to the dealer awaiting my decision i am really annoyed with the holiday park as they took my money and i was led to belive i had a pitch so i ordered the caravan

Sorry to hear of your predicament. Did you obtain in writing the pitch allocated to you, or was it just word of mouth. Unfortunately, some sites run on a first come first served basis which can cause all sorts of problems.

I understand that you are having your caravan 'delivered'. Is this because you are unable to tow it yourself?

We owned a large caravan which was 'sited' for us by the dealership due to the fact that we could not tow it legally in the UK. Fortunately, we were able to sell it reasonably quickly, as we were not able to relocate it to an alternative site. Hobby caravans are notorious for being stolen and many sites will not have them on seasonal pitches.

We returned to touring and vowed never again to go down the route. Yes, we would have a seasonal pitch but would never purchase a caravan which we personally could not pull off for various reasons.

Hope the site find goings well.

Ann
