Yes,that sums it up I suppose-
Operating the CL network is a privilege offered to The Club on specific conditions which include that they are intended solely for Caravan Club member’s recreational use only. As such all CL Sites are member only, without exception

Nevertheless you cannot help wonder about this in some cases. The NT seems to have a special relationship with the Club. I can hardly see the Club rapping the NT's knuckles over non CC members who are NT members using a CL.

Are you willing to name the site, bev, so that we can avoid it in the future?
I don't want to put people off going, but it was Bridge End on the outside of Durham, the site does get good reviews hence me booking in the first place, but I must say I was quite offended by her comment and will not be trying again.

Peedee, thanks....
firstly, what a PITA it is to navigate to page 9!.....first to page 3, then 5, etc, etc....
however, this looks clear re the CLs where the exemption has been granted to owners by CC.....the hundreds in our books...
but, it is also clear that CC is not the only org that has been granted the privilege to dispense exemption certificates....
obviously, the most similar is CCC, which (IIRC) is also member only.
however, in the text from the GOV page i quoted, other groups can aquire this status and can, if agreed with the landowner, allow non members...
one case in point is MCC (motorcaravanners) and PM (practical motorhome) who operate CLs called Nightstops and, no doubt, have agreed with their 'landowners' to allow non members.
it may be that the CLs on NT land are, in fact, operated by NT, under their own regs (non members) and the CC is 'partnering/ piggybacking/advising' and part of the deal is that CC members may make use of them.
of course, the above is all surmise and it would be good to have Ro clarify this 'difference/anomaly' in the way these sites are managed.
