Caravan sites opening and safety measures feedback

I’d have been in the horse box Brue😁

I think it was full of hay!

Our van washroom isn't brilliant but vans with lots of washroom space I will be envious of just now. I rarely use the showers but there are one or two sites where I do (nice modern blocks etc.) It's just all the water filling, no wonder the service pitches are taken everywhere.

Naaaaaa, not perfect, just use Club’ s route planner, it ‘ s brilliant , on timings anyway.

For anyone interested here’s our experience of arrival at Burrs Country Park site this afternoon.

Sign up at the barrier asking you to phone to check in and pay by credit card but then we were told to go into the office.

Hand sanitiser on the wall outside office and full height screen at the desk.

I was using vouchers and was asked to hold them up one at a time near the screen so value could be checked then tear in two and drop into a waste paper bin.  Was paying the balance (£2.80) in cash and was asked to drop coins into a dish of fluid/disinfectant.  Went back to notify pitch number and was handed the key (around the side of the screen because there’s no gap at the bottom) and told it had been disinfected.

Toilets limited to 2 people at a time and there’s a little clear plastic bucket on the wall outside filled with Milton fluid which has 2 rubber bands in (like those used at swimming pools).  Wardens said most people were using their own facilities.

They had around 100 arrivals yesterday, was busy but went well but when they checked the toilet block this morning there were more than 2 people in and obviously some had ignored the band system.

Although the web page says the shop is closed it isn’t and they have a limited supply of ‘essentials’.  Book exchange and a information rooms closed.

The Brown Cow at the side of the site is open and they have rearranged the picnic tables in the large beer garden and have a very big awning too.  Tables in the pub are for pre-booked meals only and no customers allowed for ‘drinks only’ until after food service is over.  Pub closes at 9pm..
Not sure what other sanitisers they have as we only arrived 2 hours ago.  Will check when we take the dog out this afternoon.

 

Thanks Ann

Thank you for this AnneB. Very useful information.

Thanks Ann great to hear it seems to be working as far as the site can do , for those who understand what is needed

As posted it is it seems those who think  it does not apply to or effect them that makes it more dangerous for the majority

We've got the cash to walk out and buy a new van today, but at our age we wouldn't get much mileage out of it, nor many showers

I'm in the same position Chas but you cannot take it with you so I am looking at down sizing in the next couple of years if I am still around.

Ooops drifting off topic again! Great post Ann.
