Monthly CL Opened List

Hi harryb,

Thank you for bringing that to my attention, that was an error on my behalf. The handbook would have the correct details for the site. I have updated the original post it was in.

Thanks

Maddie.

Thanks for the update, Maddie.

Just a couple of small points..... shouldn't The Harp Inn be listed under Letterston rather than Haverfordwest, and Meadow Cottage be under Wincanton rather than Yoevil?

Maddie despite taking over an existing CL that has been here for years the CAMC decided to treat us as a new site.  You advertised on the website that we were not taking bookings (without our knowledge) which has caused a few no shows and loss of income as customers thought it had closed.  We have not to our knowledge been featured as 'a new CL'  are we going to benefit from any promotional help at all?  What is the agreed official level of promotion for site like ours?  https://www.facebook.com/BreakwaterCaravanPark

I don’t think Morven View is new, is it? 

The listing shows 2016 prices. I’m confused. 

And with reviews from 2014?

I seem to remember but correct me if I'm wrong, someone from the club recently said CLs would no longer be listed on the club website until they had at least one photo on their listing.  Most of the above don't have any photos.  This really isn't going any way towards the club supporting new CLs. It's like putting them out there half dressed.  Support them properly by insisting they provide a photo themselves or from the inspector who does the final inspection then at least they'll have a fighting chance of succeeding!

Lack of a photo really puts me off, Nicola, as does failure to respond to emails or messages left on an ans machine. I know CL owners are busy people but sometimes it’s days before a response is forthcoming, if one comes at all. 

Both Morven View and Carlton Grange (from last month's list) are old CLs that had closed and have reopened with new owners, as far as I can see,

That could explain it, Nellie. I think you stayed at Morven View last year, didn’t you? I remember spotting the signs on the way to and from Gills Bay.

C&CC list 3 types of changes to CSs - closed, new and amendments. They would have shown the site as having new owners in the list of amendments which would do away with confusion.

 Did you not take up this matter directly with the CL department at HO? They are the ones you should be approaching surely.

Why not post a notice in the CL Late Availability section or add a new post of your own stating that you are up and running, other CL owners seem to get a good response from their posts that way
