Had a quick look through the latest edition and it strikes me that the Club are on the defense regarding the "new improvement booking system" N.L. seems to be going to great pains to drill home the fact that it's a non profit making club and all moneys are ploughed back into improvements. With another full page extolling the bargains on offer with prices once again shown for one unit + 1 person - I wonder how many arrivals meet this criteria? And don't forget dogs go free as do awnings, for the time being!I get the feeling that someone has actually read some of the TripAdvisor reviews ( not the random unknown site reviews) and actually realised "the peasants are revolting" and decided to attempt to placate the membership befor revenue is adversely effected ??

J.K. I bow to your superior knowledge and insight of Club Intention however only time will tell if other revenue streams such as these will be a implemented. I personally have no problem with these possible changes provided the base price is reduced adequately but not sure if that would be the case.

The base price is the important bit as it has to cover costs,   extras provide "extras" but they are not the guaranteed income provided by a base price. So base prices are unlikely to go down. However base prices can be adjusted generally but only if costs are covered. As CAMC can't guarantee an income from dogs, cats, parrots or awnings the basic income needs to be maintained. I would train my parrot (if I had one) to object to separate charges....🦜🦜🦜 wink
