CL pricing

That is the reason I always check the price when booking as it suggests on the website?  

Fully agree. Its even worse when the prices differ to those on the web site. Like many of us we are peripatetic and don't book in advance. Its totally frustrating and they get a poor review from me when it happens. Its part of the demise of the Cl network as we now look at alternatives.

Oh dear, oh dear - I see the dreaded "duplicate thread" syndrome is still at large then! 

Considering the "latest" site directory was probably in production in the Spring of last year,the prices were probably "correct" when printed, as the saying goes,and it always pays to check "latest prices"

I hope one day they will give a little discount for Solo campers like me - with so many raising their prices I might as well go on a club site if I want to save money! 

You could always ask if they do when inquiring about a booking. I doubt they will if it is a busy/popular site, but perhaps you might just have a bit of good fortune if the site is seldom busy. The worse that can happen is that they say that they don't.

I fully agree with the person who set this question.  I for one do not like having to ask for a price per night as it may be more than I can afford to pay and find this very embarrassing if I have to decline.  I think the fees for CL's had increased more than they are worth at times.  I also object to having to pay for a dog on site, if thy do this to put people going to the site then why not advise no dogs allowed. Surely the site owners could advise the club of change in fee's so the web site could be updated.

noddy, I agree with your last sentence, but i wonder how long it takes for the CC to update the prices when informed. As for feeling embarrassed if you decline because of price, don't be. I'm sure that if you were getting a quote for a job done and you though the price too high you'd think nothing of saying so, and the same should apply when enquiring about a site's price. All you need say is "I'm sorry but your price is more than I would pay for Blah, Blah Blah". We don't use sites where we has to pay for our dog, out of principle, so never try to book them in the first place.

The OP questioned the prices in the Handbook, and as noted by a cc reply to a similar question a long time ago there is a cut off date for cl owners to advise of any amendments,before the handbook is published,and some "miss it"so any web updates will probably also not happen

All CL's are considerably less than Club sites, so I really don't see the problem. The sites directory lasts for two years, and with the added delay caused by the printing process, I tend to be surprised if the price is as written anyway. For me what is much more important is the physical state of the CL, including the EHU.  

As I have already said the CL network is the only reason I stay with the caravan club.
