Crowtrees Farm (ST10 3HR) - Covid guidelines

I’ve read this before. Is this a duplicate? The other was couched in much stronger terms.

We aren't aware of the facts and I'm not sure it’s right to feature the site in a story when there may well be valid mitigating circumstances. I feel it would be best to let the club deal with the matter in private.

The caravans you saw might of been there by key workers. I know a few people who are staying in motorhomes and caravans so they don't put their family's at risk because of the job they do.... Only a thought

That’s exactly why we shouldn't jump to conclusions, B74. 👍🏻

In Cornwall there are several NHS workers living in holiday accommodation because they are isolating themselves from their families whilst they are tending Covid patients.

Here's another possible scenario - the "occupants" may have been staying there when the lockdown was announced and rather than make them take awnings down the owner agreed to let them leave the vans on site. I agree that CLs are supposed to be closed but you saw the "occupants" in the afternoon. They weren't necessarily staying overnight.

Unlikely? Yes. Against the "spirit" of the lockdown? Almost certainly. But maybe better to raise it with the club for investigation than repeat it on here I feel.

as a site owner we were asked if we would allow several key workers to stay we declined as we have family members not well , I would say that before everyone jumps up and down perhaps a quick phone call to establish facts would have been appropriate ?

Well said, JL 👏👏

It might be totally 'right' and all depends on circumstance. 

 I am a little surprised that neither the CL owners nor anyone from the club has clarified the situation. There may be any number of legitimate explanations for what the OP saw.

The other thread about this was closed down for some reason.  The fact is we don’t know the facts.  In this area there were 4 LV’s on 2 x CL’s when the lockdown started and they were all the occupiers full time home so no where else to go.  As it happens the owner had another paddock which isn’t part of the CL’s so they all moved there.  The guys don’t pay site fees only for ehu.  I’m sure that there will Probably be other CL’s hosting full time vanners.

We have a M/h on site at this time, they live in France and have an elderly relative nearby whom they look after as her carer is no longer able to visit. We speak via phone and payment via Backs. I see this as helping a family in need.
