Have any twin axle owners had problems with being refused a pitch on any sites because they dont take twin axle vans?

Rang the site and young girl started to take booking asked me the length of van and when I said 8.0m well 7.9m to be exact she said can you hold, then another voice ( I presume was the owner) asked me again so I told her and she replied thats a twin axle for which I replied no its a single.
Sorry we dont have any pitches availible!!
No it wasnt a CC or CCC site but it has been in the PCv top 100 guide for quite a few years and indeed did win it one year!!Sproket said:Gagakev said:Not a twin axle but a SINGLE!!

Sir Gaga
I think you will find that some sites do not have pitches big enough to take longer vans.
lots of the older sites were built before such big tourers were so popular and just didnt prepare for the sizes now favoured by lots of us.
Don't suppose it was a CC club site ?

7.9m single axle? It does sound big for a single axle? What's the model?

Surfer said:Shipping length and external length of caravan could be two differnt things. Our twin axle is 7.9m in length but shipping length is over 8m. Maybe you should be quoting the external length instead of shippingh length.
Hi Surfer, there is no mention of external length in my paperwork only internal so I have just been out and measured it 6.64. Draw bar 1.25Surfer said:Shipping length and external length of caravan could be two differnt things. Our twin axle is 7.9m in length but shipping length is over 8m.
