Congratulations to all the CL’s nominated across the county and especially to the winner. We can vouch for Maryland’s in Pembrokeshire. We’ve not tried the others........yet. 🙂

Thank you from Cherry Cottage CL we are delighted that our guests have enjoyed staying with us and thrilled to receive the 2nd place CL of the year award having only opened in June.

We had an amazing day in London, thank you to the club for organising and congratulations to the other winning CLs, it was lovely to meet you all.

MM - Please take another look at Cherry Cottage CL we have 4  large grass pitches used in rotation and  2 hard standing, so we can stay open all year for our visitors.  Max 5 units at any time.  Having a green site is very important to us, but you do need to be able to access it.   There are more photos on our own website.

We are definitely not a mini club site, but a peaceful rural CL, with EHU and free WiFi that works!

 I did say 'on the whole' 😉 My comment was not aimed at any one site in particular, though I think my mini me comment was in part when I saw a red/white club type barrier ..... 

We stayed at a CL earlier this year with a similar set up ie 3 hard standings & 2 very generously sized grass pitches .... large enough to not have to pitch exactly where previous visitors had pitched.

Makes a real difference that if you are on a grass pitch, being able to Site caravan slightly different. You can avoid any worn patches then. 

All winners look nice CLs, I think most are quite new as well, so good luck to them.

Congratulations to all the winners from me too. Hopefully we'll get to at least visit you MP next year, as we didn't manage it this year, if not the others.

Congratulations to all winners, however, I would like to point out that Brunette Cottage is not in Wrexham, it is nearer to Whitchurch, Shropshire and only a few miles from Malpas, in Cheshire! 😀

Hi Jonray57,

Thank you for your message, Brunette Cottage is listed under Wrexham in the Sites Directory and Handbook which I have provided if any members were looking for their sites. 

Thanks

Maddie
