That’s a bit of an unfortunate suggestion about CAMC staff but, leaving that aside, why do you single out MH-ers as there’s nothing special about us or the way we tour? Many caravanners also stay just 2-3 nights on each site and, only yesterday, I was reading a post here about MH-ers staying a week or 2 on the same site. Therefore, there would seem to be like behaviour whether the unit is self propelled or not which makes the deposit system the same for all with no special understanding necessary. 🤷🏻‍♂️

"To me it's just another example of the way they don't understand motorhomers who want to tour, maybe stopping just two or three nights in one location."

Have I misunderstood? 3 nights @ say £40 = £120. 10% deposit would be £12 instead of £20. Is it worth making such a song and dance over £8? Really? undecided

Under the deposits payments and rules just before last before it was £25 minimum ( I hope that's right - it's just from memory and no one has corrected me?) and now it's £20, what is so bad with that?

When deposits go up it's a cause for complaint, and when they go down it is for some posters too. I can't figure it out, anyone would think people are forced to club sitesundecided

Nothing else has changed regarding catering for MH's needs, in fact if anything it's got better by £5, and up to the 9th MH were quite happily booking away and turning up to club sites in equal measures with caravans and in fact often out numbering them. I've seen caravans stay one night and MH's staying one week last week, and it's all to with choice and all have the same one.

obviously there are the exceptions, but by & large .... IMHO - and comments from here ... MHs tend to do a day or 3 on a site & move on to the next, where as caravaners tend to do a week or more at one site & move on or go back home

I have booked that site as an overnight  on my way to a £1350 ferry and I have every intention  of being on it so I dont make a "song and a  dance" in your words about £16.42  . However I dont enjoy being mislead.

I don’t think anyone was suggesting you are a cheapskate. Merely conversing with you from their own perspective. You make regular trips to your favoured happy place which as you point out is expensive so cheapskate really does not come into it👍🏻

enjoy our day.

Those extra pounds mount up if you are booking a series of sites for a tour or perhaps as a non-member again, I have misunderstood the new booking debacle; sorry system 😁.

For me it’s not primarily about the amount, or wether it’s more advantageous to one group or another, it’s about how it’s been marketed. They sent me an email trumpeting the reduction  yesterday, along with the 20% summer offer.

I suppose minimum deposit reduced to £20 and will be no more than 10% of your total bill, wouldn’t have had the same Wow factor🤔
