I noticed that a few months ago, and IIRC mentioned it in another thread. Like ttda above, we too make use of that in autumn/winter, as it provides a decent discount and sites are quieter too.
Still, every cloud has a silver lining, as we too have found alternative sites, CLs actually; good for us and also good for the CLs concerned, their gain, CAMC's loss.

Maybe not if many like ourselves seldom if ever use a club site unless the cost is within our/their price limits, the MWD making that feasible.

Didn't look at it that way but yes you are right. In my case we are no longer able to afford club prices. Our last club site booking is Castleton in Nov at 50% mid week discount then onto cl's only
5 weeks touring south coast this summer cost an average of £18.65 per night. It would be silly not to.

I said early in year that the Club Site Prices would seem astronomical once the new prices are in, as well as losing that VAT relief, and then of course the energy cost additions came along as well. We just managed a very reasonable stay at FM before everything hit, back in March, but we haven’t used a Club Site since.

Has anyone else noticed that over the last couple of years that some 'pitch' prices have dropped slightly, while per person prices have risen.
The 50% discount is only on the 'pitch' price so the cunning club have even managed to make that less and less. Wouldn't surprise me if it did go altogether.

Unless the other club stops it’s discounting, in particular the Age related discount, I would think the CAMC are going to have to do something. I suspect mid week discount is utilised a lot more by us older retired folk, who holiday out of season, than younger members. Once the playing field is levelled with the introduction of deposits, an £8 a night saving by using the C&CC will be even more enticing.

Agreed SteveL, this year we have used C&CC full facility sites but not any CAMC ones, though we have used non facility ones and CLs.
If the trend carries on of ever increasing costs I can see us using more and more of these type of sites, as you say an on average saving of £9 a night makes a huge difference on a 6 week tour.
This club really does need to put its thinking cap on or we the members are going to walk away. It could lead to less sites being open all year and worse case, some sites closing altogether.
