I have just searched numerous web-sites looking for our Summer Holiday destination......July 2008.....including both of the CC and the C&CC.
What struck me was the amount of sites that hike their prices for high season.
One site went from £2.35 in mid season to £5.95 in high season, for a child over 2 ?????...add to that a £3 per night charge for an awning and it gets worse....(pitch referred to was a deluxe pitch on hardstanding, so why the extra cost....no wear and tear on gravel.)...dogs went from £1.50 to £4.00 a night ???
I suppose that demand allows them to get away with it, but I think it is wrong.
Still cheaper than going abroad, yes.........but for how much longer.
Club sites in particular have basic amenities, but their prices do not reflect this.
Anyway, now booked up and the saving of about £100 will go to treating my daughter....
