Thinking about joining Camping and Caravan Club

Gosh where did this thread spring to life from 😅😅

Well 4 years on and we have stayed on many more C&CC sites thanks to Covid and having to holiday in the UK for the last 2 years.

We like just about everyone we've been on so far. Yes they are different, especially in summer when the tenter are out and about. 

The gravel areas are on some sites narrower than CMC sites but the new refurbished sites they are a decent size. You have to state if you are wanting an awning pitch or you will be put on a non awning one. 

Pricing is much better than the CMC as their price bands at PHs don't go on for days afterwards. With the age discount it can make a £10 a night difference, so worth the membership.

We only have 2 sites booked so far for this year and they are both CCC sites. 

 You don't use this club's sites much then Bill? Very different to your opinion

JK

We all make judgments on our own experiences, yours obviously differs to mine. Yes, I do use CMC sites, although increasingly less given high site fees. If I was to give up my C&CC or CMC membership, it would be the latter.

Last year at a CMC site, I was berated my a member for driving a motorhome as they made the place look like a transit camp! 

I would have thought that “Fiat camp”, or “Peugeot camp” was more accurate.

Too close to the edge for me 🥴

We are members of both, but generally book with the CAMC.  One reason is that the CAMC have more Full Serviced pitches. Because of the meager weight allowance, we tend to carry so much stuff in the car.  One of the ways we cut down is by leaving the aquaroll and wastemaster at home.  Instead we use Serviced pitches and Colapz products (Fresh Mini and flexible waste pipes) to cut down on weight and space...

I am a member of the CCC,their booking system and web site remind me very much of trying to get through to your GP ,but once you get through, they are absolutely fine.

They do seem to have loads and loads of rules and stipulations,but surprisingly now the CMHC are following them.

Never had a problem with the site pitching you,I just request,sunny pitch,away from toilet block ect ect.I was at the old Braithwaite Fold site and he met me on his bike and said you can have that pitch or that pitch dead opposite reception where I was parked as only two pitches left!! 

I would rather have this than the Volvo driver at the Centenary Site who must of made at least half a dozen laps of the site looking for a suitable pitch.

Where they do have an edge are the popular THS cheap and do not require booking.

CCC does have serviced pitches on some sites. This information is clearly shown on entries for sites in their Siteseekers book which is issued to members.

Yes... you are absolutely right, dunelm.  The post you quote was from 2018...  I did refer to serviced pitches on C&CC sites just above (Posted on 08/02/2022 09:22), having used a serviced pitch at Devizes last year.  From what I can see, it is less common to find serviced pitches on the C&CC network.
