Random people walking over others' pitches

Is it just me or is anyone else noticing the amount of people who feel its ok to walk behind your caravan or alongside to take a shortcut ie to the water points, there are paths to follow but clearly they feel the need to cut through hedges etc the worst I have seen is at Chester fair oaks this week.

I am sorry to say it but most of the culprits are the motor home owners with there water bottles topping up there water we have a nervous dog who is always tied up and protected by windbreaker or awning but when you step out of your awning and bump in to the motorhome guy next to you nipping through the hedge for water it gets a bit trying and upsetting for the dog, especially when there is a path 30 yards further up clearly for that purpose.

Its so bad at Chester there are numerous gaps in the hedges where people have basically burst through and created new shortcuts

From memory, and I may be wrong, I don't think those are the pitches next to the river? I don't know why ET chose that one (did you take it ET?) as the ones on the website are much better and give a better idea of the site.

I must admit your pics make the site look more appealing Corners but if touring I would still prefer a CL.wink

You could of course use the Clachan site, just up the road, but like a large CL with no other facilities than EHU and H/S, and about half the price too.

Should you not be too appreciative of the site, then you could always use the unstaffed associated site about a mile or so towards Aberfeldy but using that one might just mean you get bombarded by bolshie squirrels because it is set amongst oodles of trees 

That's just what we do, and they are Red Squirrels so a joy to see them.

Sorry - but what have red squirrels got to do with the OP of people walking across their pitch?

and yes fully agree, as I've always said each to their own preferred type of site.
