Is it just me or has the price of cl's gone up lots this year? They all seem to be £15 a night for a basic grass pitch with electric. Looks like the cheap £10 a night days are long gone sadly.

Wye, demand?, I don't demand anythingsmile I look for-Showers, wifi, EHU & if those are on a CL in the area I want to be then I pay the rate that is set by the owner. A good price for a good service. I never expect a CL owner to run a charitable foundation.

Demand .......

Ok if thats what campers expect , its becoming the norm for CLS to become all singing and dancing , hard standing , Electric hook up individual water and waste , plus loo's and showers ie , serviced pitches so naturally its going to cost us more , each to there own but some of us don't need or want it .....

Yes Rocky 2 buckets , we still have a choice , however the choice is diminishing , club sites provide the extras , Cl have always been special because of the simplicity ....

The CL owners wouldn't provide extra facilities if there wasn't a demand for them so I guess they're feeding a need. I think there will always be basic sites for those who want them so there'll be something for everyone. Personally, I don't believe that CLs should necessarily be simple so it's good we have choice.

On the cl network there are about 900 with HS ,  900 with toilets , 540 with showers and about 1800 with EHU so all those will need more work and certificates to comply with regulations ,than the diminishing green fields of cls so costs are getting more for the owners

Dont see a problem JV86.We use Haven, commercials

cls and CC when it suits us, not anyone else. What the commercials charge at other times is of no concern to us. Like wise will not use CC at peak, Again not interested in the prices then, only when I wan to actually go. Been in the past tied to school holidays but not now. Everyone's choice.
