Should the main clubs offer discounts for sites that are dated and worn out?
We went to a Scottish castle today and because of building works certain parts were closed to visitors so they charged us less.
It got me thinking maybe the club sites should follow suit? We're currently staying at Yellowcraig where the shower block / amenities appear as old as me!

They already do in effect as charges are set individually for each site and take into account both the facilities offered and the level of demand for that site.

Well I was at Hillhead a year or two back, paid full price onky to discover that the club house, where 6 of us went to eat one evening after a fair few drinks to celebrate someone birthday, was closed for a "private function" No reduction in site fee for that night though! Having imbibed far too much for any of us to drive we were none too impressed.

Club houses are surely funded by their takings, not by pitch fees?

 

[Mr Plodd]

Not the point though is it? I paid for that site (CAMC's most expensive) because it had the facilities we wanted, they were closed for the evening with no advanced warning either at the check in or earlier email.

Yellow Craig , unlike Hillhead is one of CAMCs cheaper sites at £32.50 per night now.

CAMC have a programme of site refurbishment which costs a lot. Whilst some of the facilities may be “aged” I have never found them wanting in cleanliness nor hot water etc.

We are currently outside of York paying £47 per night . Our choice because of location. The upside is probably the best toilet facilities in the U.K. see pics. You pays your money….

Hillhead ? Marmite to me but at the price it is very wrong NOT to warn people the “infamous “ club house will be shut ! Poor show CAMC.
