Probably like a number of members we're doing a 'long' tour for the first time since the pandemic. The niggles over lack of WiFi and the new booking system have been well documented elsewhere but what has happened to the camp-site shop? To date (we are travelling from S.West of England to Skye) the shop appears to be a thing of the past: no milk/bread or calor gas seems to be available,let alone 'loo roll. In the more remote caravan-sites is it really welcoming after a long journey to not even have the basics on hand but instead be given directions to the nearest shop 6 miles away? Have I missed an announcement about no site shops in future?

We were at a club site last month and it had a well stocked shop , so it’s down to the capability of the wardens

Don’t forget you was an Arkwright as your whole job, the site managers hold 2 jobs, site manager & an Arkwright🤷🏻‍♂️

Here’s a shot of a campsite shop in Cornwall -organised by the site owners not the wardens - so there’s fresh bread every morning, milk, local beers, stuff in the freezer, buckets and spades for the kids and so on. But this Club’s attitude is “We have provided a warden and that’s all we need to do. Let them sort it out”
