Help shape future facilities at UK Club campsites

Thanks for the feedback, WTG. It’s looking as if this research is very much facility block centred with nothing else being considered for the future of the club and its members even though many of us can see scope for changing several aspects of site use.

I wonder if we will ever know if the Club got more feedback using this method rather than just asking members generally what they thought? One imagines that the reason for using outside pollsters was to garner a bit more of a "blue sky" response rather than the more predictable? At the end of the day they have to establish how many people would be willing to pay, say, another fiver a night, on top of the price of a service pitch, to have the exclusive use of a toilet/shower during their stay? Perhaps I am undercooking the price and perhaps £10 a night would be required to recoup the cost?

Thanks very much for your informative replies WTG. I wonder what CAMC are considering?! I've often wondered about more luxury on sites and whether a charge could apply etc. Personally, like DK, I'm not much of a user of site facilities, some aren't up to scratch at all and after Covid I'm even less inclined to venture inside their often cramped portals. And I understand KJs comments about disabled facilities too.

However I've seen good and bad on many sites, not just CAMC and I can think of some truly sub standard facilities with  the other club too!

I'd suggest Carnon Downs as the reasonably up to date gold standard if anyone thinks CAMC is OK elsewhere. I hope those facilities are kept in good shape and there's no black mould allowed in sight. 

While this survey looks to have been focused on the future of facility blocks, I have just had an email from the Club to complete a Harrison interactive survey. I have completed it.

First it asks a bit about yourself and your touring plans and then moves on to questions about your Club experience and ideas for improvements. Final questions were about the Club handbook and magazine the latter obviously seeking views about going digital. Has anyone else had it?

Last August as it happens.

I did acknowledge that some sites already have a lobby off which all facilities are accessed, at least 4 of which were on sites we have visited in the past.

Care to name the site?

Sorry when you said sites, as you've often posted that you haven't used them for a while due to cost and won't be using them this year I thought as always you weren't taking about club sites?

Actually I'm still confused even more by this latest post, you posed:

Most disabled rooms have an entrance directly from outside 

and some sites have and now you have found four sites that do?

Still no matter. The club is going down the path you wish, and so it should I agree.

 

It will only pursue this luxury route if I assume enough people on this survey say they would like it? And assuming the survey is more representative than CT.

Personally I hope not too much, I have no wish to book anything and happy to take my chances when I wish to use a shower, but booking a family bathroom or disabled bathroom might interest those who need it and really that could be done now where they exist, I do remember we always had to find a quiet time to get them all in when they were all young.

Thanks for the feedback
