How does this Club compare with the ‘Other’?

I’ve started this discussion to try and collect together any direct comparisons between CC and C&CC.

One mentioned several times is that C&CC charge deposits with bookings, whereas CC does not. In that same discussion, it was mentioned that the C&CC membership was larger than CC’s, which surprised me. Can anyone provide the stats?

What other factual differences can be identified?

We are members of both leisure companies and they compliment each other. Neither are perfect but provide the caravanner with a good range of site. There are two types of caravanner, those who like their sites to be in towns and cities and those who like their sites to be in scenic countryside. Its a matter of choice there is no right or wrong. The CC tends to cater slightly  more for the urban caravanner.

Yes they are both very similar except on the other clubs sites you could be next to a tent.  If that puts you off sorry.

Not if you book a Hardstanding in advance! Wink

Be interesting to compare if CandCC are losing sites at a similar rate to CC, for whatever reasons. Sincerely hope not, although I suppose they will be in a similar situation regarding land lease etc.....

I think it's best to have membership of both clubs. Both clubs have been learning from each other. The Caravan Club also takes tents on some of its sites. There is a tent camping area on the Brighton Caravan Club site.

I've made use of both clubs. In fact yesterday I was on a Caravan Club site in Gatwick and today I'm staying on a CS in Findon. 

Membership of both clubs gives you more choice which is good for you!

Absolutely right about that Malcolm. In April we're touring Norfolk and Suffolk. By combing CC, C&CC sites and CL/CS sites we're paying an average of just over £15 per night, and that includes the early May Bank Holiday weekend.

Write your comments here... Yes it's nice to have so much choice, Chris. Charmill Cottage CS, Long Furlong, Findon is charging us just £10 per night which includes 16 amp electric hook-up. There is also a toilet and shower. Amazing value for money and  that too in the area of outstanding natural beauty of the South Downs National Park!

Another difference just spotted at the local dealer's premises.  One club has a membership recruitment folder on display.  Guess which one?
