Web Site Booking Calenders

Will second that harry, it's a win win for all.....

Its really easy to use the calendar on either uk campsite or available pitch.com and link it to your website in fact if you use available pitch its as good as having a website all for £20 per year.

Its a brilliant idea to make planning a tour round so much easier and I certainly would support CLs which used it.

I'm a bit surprised there has been no comments from others, especially the owners.

I am looking at a possible 6 week tour so using a cl with a booking system would be so much easier rather than make several phone calls and having to change plans to suit.

Have a look here www.greenacrescl.co.uk/tobook It's so clear and simple. You can see at a glance if there is availability.

Hope Alan at Greenacres doesn't mind me using his system as an example

I tend to use CLs with online availability and/or booking which has realistically resulted in the exclusion of others.  I'm only using one this year without the facility and it is purely down to its location.

The one draw back i can see is that there are still numerous areas of the uk without internet or very poor internet,so it could at the moment discriminate,its bad enough here at times and we are on "infinity" joke

Online booking is usually an additional feature.  I have never found a CL that uses online booking systems exclusively.

It's not discrimination as individual CLs will make different choices about how they wish to run their business.

Those who wish to use the handbook and phone will be able to do so.  My handbook went out for recycling months ago

...I do not think that is what this thread is about ,if the cl has minimal or nil tinternet the "calander" is not going to be available is it?

It won't be made compulsory JVB

It is an option that some CLs have chosen to do, independently of the CC and some members prefer it.

Are you suggesting that those CLs shouldn't have online systems because others have slow or no internet connections?

Anything that they can do to get business the better.  Many of us prefer that option and would like to see more doing it but it is entirely down to the CL and not the club or us members

I use the email route. Send a mail with requested dates. I send to 2/3 different CL's in the area of my choice. The first one I get a positive reply from gets my business.
