Excessive site fees

We were brought up in those times as well but while we still watch costs CC charges are still well within our reach and their sites do dominate those we use.

...+1 ,as we have said before, a known good product (for us anyway)comes first cost secondry

+2, they are worth paying for, and they are still just above average

Not only CC but the Cls also seem to have increased their prices substantially.Is there a club agenda here.Conversley the commercial sites have reduced their prices and are making some really good offers out of peak. Next week we are going to the Lleyn peninsular.No CC site but basic Cls are £14. Haven are offering hard standing  super ptches at £13/14. during the same period and in the same area.

And we thought we were the only ones to have noticed this as many more CLs are now about £15 a night!  Seems that commercial sites is the way forward for offers etc.

...Offf peak yes, in the peak its the families that seem to have to pay for it where as the clubs try to keep it "reasonable" in the peak

Just completed a Haven booking. Euro pitch with hardstanding, own EHU,Water TV and drainage.Just like Super pitch at Brecon.All for £12 per night starting this Sunday. No contest for CLs in the area.No CC available for direct comparison but must be upwards of £8/10 per night.

This obviously raises the question whether the CC are starting or have already started to price themselves out of the market.  We have already cancelled 4 bookings with the CC this year and found cheaper alternatives.  

We remain members of the CC because of the CL network even though some CLs are now more expensive than nearby full sites.

Can't understand why people pay whatever the CC decide just to look at regimental sites with few facilties as I don't think many CC sites have pools, restaurants or bars on site.

I'm a member solely for access to the CLs (not for price reasons)but it seems some of them aren't fussy about who they accept.

A CC commercial site or a public commercial site would always be a last resort choice for me.

"Can't understand why people pay whatever the CC decide just to look at regimental sites with few facilties as I don't think many CC sites have pools, restaurants or bars on."

Well, personally, we set a limit of about £20 a night, and we're quite happy to pay that because of the lack of those things!

We also pay the asking price, because of the lack of facilities on an otherwise top notch site. One of our weeks is £31 per night because it is in peak, but we would not get a commercial, of similar standard for that, with or without pool/ bar.
