I've just read in the New CLs list in the club magazine, as they laughingly call the junk mail self advertising masquerading as a magazine, that there is a new CL at a garden centre in Northwich, Cheshire. The price is an eye watering £20 a night. Approaching club site price for a CL. Hope no one gives, pricing like this will destroy the whole ethos of the wonderful CL network.

Read CL updates in The Magazine page 32. It's under Ellesmere

Best get in quick it will soon be fully booked. Wink

Make sure you don't go to the one underneath, it's over 3 times the price. Surprised

Won't see the magazine till we get home some time next month. Certainly won't be using the the one underneath regardless of it's facilities.Laughing

I guess if its in an area we want to be in and its the only/best then we pay the price.  If there is a CC site close by in the summer then the £20/night CL starts to look good value, its all about prespective

This months new additions to the network. 10 new. Most between £12 & £15 with ehu. 2 at a staggering £20 but with all facilities and 1 with ehu and shower £6

Can the last one be true. Bet people will be queuing up by now.

Are they listed yet in the New CL section? What's the name of the one that's £6?

Nellie, it can be found in the CL search under Shropshire, Ellesmere.   i've still not mastered the art of doing a link on this tablet, but this is it: http://www.caravanclub.co.uk/uk-holidays/search-and-book/certificated-locations/site-detail/?Id=604282&town=Ellesmere&county=28209&facilities=

It does indeed say £6 on the website, NOT from £6.

And thereby lies the explanation of the £6 price.

It does not have ehu on the website listing but the announcement in The Magazine states "16 amps".

Thought it was to good to be true

Manoravon, and as Harry says no EHU advertised so don't get too excited!

Well, not necessarily.  Not everyone needs EHU, we don't have it where the option exists not to have it, like in France.  With a solar panel and plenty of gas we managed very well without EHU for about half of our 6+ weeks away recently.

But I accept that it isn't for everybody, although I think it's a good price at £6.
