Question thats bugged me for years being a member of the caravan club - why are the club obsessed with Bunree when we have so many stunning sites up and down the country.  Just recieved our new membership cards and there on the front......again......is bunree. Great site but would be great to see some variety.

Why not run a competition each year and choose the best photo to put on the membership cards?

Does it really matter what picture is on the cards? Personally, I'd rather CC focused its resources on the sites network.

My CC card has a caravan graphic, similar to the ones at the bottom of the page. My C&CC card has a photo of a site in Cornwall.

Can't say I've really noticed what picture it is. If pressed, I couldn't have been 100% certain it wasn't plain.

Its only a membership card, who cares what picture is on the front or if there is a picture at all.

If they have to have a photo, -------

They could always put a picture of G Chamberlain and a ruined caravan on the front. At least that would give most of  us a good laugh.

Due to a slight cock up (and not by me) I have two cards this year - one the annoying cartoon and the other Bunree.

Bunree has possibly the most magnificent view from any site on the network, an almost 360 degree vista.  And the bit that isn't part of that is the bit shown on the card!

I would not argue that it has great views but it makes no difference to me what is on the card. Basically the card is something to refer to when I need to and to show wardens who ask for it and the rest of the time it is out of sight.

Prefer North Ledaig to Bunree. Bunree is ok but the midgies are hell there, North Ledaig is almost midge free due to the onshore breeze, plus no restrictions on the views every pitch gets a view. 

Not bothered what's on my card really but agree with Tinny that the club should focus on the sites network

Ive been going to Bunree since before they built the Public Lavatories there. Have lost count of the number of times.  It's an easy 3 hr journey from home including a coffee break at the Green Welly Shop in Tyndrum. 

It's one of my favourite areas. Easy access to the Glencoe hills, the Nevis range and the Mamores. 

The views in the evening on our return to the van is stunning while sitting out with a well earned dram or two. 

There are very few CC sites which have such dramatic natural scenery.
