Looks like we need to book before 5 December to avoid price increases.

As for site fee increases I have no idea how reasonable or otherwise I might consider the increases to be as I have not seen evidence of the increase amounts.

Comparing the site prices of sites I stayed on this year with next years prices the increases look to be about 3 to 3.5 percent. However none facility site have increased by from £14 to £15 which is a 7 percent increase!

Are these CC sites? Where did you find the new prices as I haven't seen them?

Good post.  You are following in the path of many previous CMC customers who found that the CMC no longer offered value for money commiserate with what they provide .  What you will now find is that there are superb alternative Campsites in more scenic locations and offering a higher quality of caravanning/Motorhoming experience. 

All the best for your future touring. Enjoy !!

cool

And you know about many previous members who made such a decision K. How might that be? A divine gift mayhaps?

So this is before any further proposed increases?

ET, next year’s prices (#1) have been available for some time, under the web pages for individual sites. Probably due to new rolling booking system. Price increases (#2) have just been announced, via email to those who have sites booked. We opted out of emails from Club, but just happen to have booked a couple of sites for first time ever in advance for a couple of events for next year.This is probably why we got the update email, which is reassuring us that our existing booking price will stand, if we keep those dates. It will possibly have bookings running for different prices for a year, something bound to cause comment at some point if there is a queue in reception and someone thinks someone else has got something cheaper! The Club has probably recalculated it’s pricing policy for next year, and is implementing it retrospectively, but has decided, probably sensibly, not to incur the wrath of those like us who have booked something at a price advertised. So if you book something before Tuesday of next week, you will be charged the old, new price, rather than the new, new price!

I am trying to recall when price increases usually happen (1st Jan? 1st April?) to see if this is another way of getting more money in. New prices from 5th December seems a bit strange to me, but I could be wrong.

ET, i got them by using the same period of time I booked this year at he same sites. I have assumed that the listed price for 2019 is what you pay whether you book now or later next year.

Unless I am mistaken, it would be illegal to do otherwise.
