Hi,

Is there any way to search for sites by adults only?

I am trying to plan some relative peace & quiet during the school summer holiday period!

As an organisation who are trying to become 'commercial' the CAMC have to recognise where the demand is and try to meet that demand.

So we welcome tents, let people rent pods, make ourselves inclusive of all units but whoops, sorry, no children allowed. Yeah, it makes sooo much sense.yell

I am at a loss as to why you think it would be good to have sites where children are banned, Why??   I think it is time that the CAMC tried out a few sites as Dog Free, not children free!!

Maybe because so many people don't / can't control their kids, but most owners do control their dogs?

There are plenty of adult only sites out there. There are plenty of dog free sites out there. Why anyone should want the CAMC which, for all its faults, prides itself, rightly in my view, as being an inclusive club, to mirror these is what confounds me!  smile

 Yes, I agree with you moulesy, the point I was trying to make is that we 'non dog' members tolerate the amount of dogs on site and the members who do not like children on site should also be tolerant. My peace and quiet on site is never spoilt by children but I can not say the same about the dogs, but I tolerate it.

Yes, being tolerant of others is definitely the key to enjoying the sort of holiday where you are in close proximity to scores of others in a public place. To be honest, and this applies to any sort of site we've used, there are far fewer problems from dogs, children or any sort of antisocial behaviour on site that there are at home. I sometimes wonder if who complain on here about what annoys them on site are as proactive in complaining to their local council about similar problems at home! wink

Isn't it telling that an organisation dealing with Adult Only sites is called Tranquil Sites?

Certainly it's time that the CAMC tried out a few sites as AO......I think they would be very successful.

So on some sites children and their accompanying adults would be, in effect, banned according to the wishes of a few! So on sites deemed 'good' by some  for families would single adult couples or solo adults be banned? I think not!  The club is an inclusive one and thankfully so. There are many families who can live side by side with non family members with no problems whatso ever. I can't see that changing, let those comercials or affiliated sites who wish to appeal to that sector do so but the club is a welcoming organisation and long will that continue I'm sure.

Or it could just be there are loads of cantankerous old buggers that don't like to see or hear kids play & define 'out of control' as not being within arms reach of their parents.
