I arrived at Scarborough west ayton site this week to find pitches marked with blue posts.When i asked what these were i was told Non Awning Pitches.My concern is what if i arrive at a site with the intention of putting an awning up and the only pitches left are non awning ones. we arrived and watched as one caravan without an awning went into a white posted pitch,i dont think this has been thought out properly

So if the site phones are not being answered now how is one to let the staff know if you are delayed or you have to contact someone on site. Is there an answering machine taking messages that gets checked often?

He may have a very good point if it takes a warden 10 years to reply to a post!🤣🤣

I seem to recall blue pegs existed 10 years ago for non awning pitches, didn't they?

We are dissuaded from taking bookings over the phone except those on the day. Any query regarding the site or a stay on the day, an answerphone message will be responded to. Apart from taking a booking over the phone is time consuming now, we don't have a secure phone line like the call centre has, so taking card details over that phone poses a risk. The answerphone is monitored regularly.
