It seems from previous posts that around 2:1 in favour of caravans are CC members at the moment, but does it really, really matter in any way, shape or form, other than for site design considerations?
The only reason I am remotely interested is if it prompts this Club, and other site / pitch providers to improve sites for both caravan and MH users in the future. The Club has limited funds for improving existing sites, but if, when, it considers new ones, then better waste water dumping designs would be good, and maybe a one night stopover area are possible considerations, more like parking spaces than pitches, to accommodate those MHs who like to pitch up late, shower, then move on early.

Write your comments here...When we had the motorhome, we used Aires quite extensively when in France. I always thought that a similar arrangement could be introduced in this country.

Interesting set of stats Jeff
"In the UK, it is estimated that there are in current use:
- 550,000 touring caravans
- 330,000 caravan holiday homes
- more than 205,000 motorhomes
= over 1 million leisure caravans"
