Is it a rip off?

I don't really want to decide CT I am quite happy with CAMC Bridlington. Doesn't stop me questioning if the have their pricing model correct though.

indeed, (thanks for answering though it was rhetorical btw) but it shows the club's prices are not far away from the local (inferior) sites. If there was a huge difference then the club might be wrong. (but technically impossible)

We are all different - I wouldn't question or think about the price if I liked it, just be happy I'm on site.

well now you do

Not alone but most can't apart from weekends and their main summer holiday. That's why BH/weekends are fuller I would think.

I suppose it depends who are the main users of club sites? working folk or not? The club might know and base their prices on that?

If anyone is familiar with the Accor group of hotels, there have a variety of brands from Formula 1, through Ibis, Mercure up to the top brand and priced accordingly. The gripe from many appears to be that they are getting Ibis facilities at Mercure or Accor prices when comparing with commercial sites.

In analysis, a club site provides a pitch, a EHU, a toilet block and perhaps a dog walk. Hardly extensive facilities, yet commanding what is perceived as a fairly premium price.

Personally CY I am content to pay more for less. I don't particularly want bars or restaurants. I can even do without the swimming pool, I do enough of that when at home.  A pleasant base for walking and exploring with a good facilities block, is all we ask.

The point is though Cyber, that,for many, the club provides exactly what they want. What do you think that I might be missing out on in the way of more extensive facilities? Well for me the answer is 'nothing'. What do you feel to be missing?

"In analysis, a club site provides a pitch, a EHU, a toilet block and perhaps a dog walk. Hardly extensive facilities, yet commanding what is perceived as a fairly premium price."

Those facilities are all we, and many others apparently, require from a site. If we wanted a pool, restaurant, bar etc, obviously we'd look elsewhere. The claim that prices are "perceived" as "premium" is spurious to say the least. As I mentioned earlier, we find that club prices are at about the median for similar sites in an area. I've yet to see any conclusive evidence otherwise.

I’m building up the impression that your view of club sites has changed since you swapped to a MH, CY. Has your way of touring or your use of sites changed in some way? I’d be interested to learn what’s brought about this seeming change and altered your thinking.

+1 Tinny, quite a change👍🏻😊

I see no problem with folk modifying their belief or opinion in the light of new experience or knowledge. Far more worrying are those that steadfastly hold on that which is outdated or now irrelevant.
