It would be great to have feedback on the caravan sites and how the safety measures are working. We will be watching for the next two weeks to see how safe the sites are before we decide to start touring again.  Maybe a lot of people will put reviews on individual caravan sites.

This thread is specifically and solely for members currently visiting sites to offer useful feedback.

Please keep your posts on the topic of "caravan sites opening and safety measures on sites" only.

Thank you.

wouldn't that be the easiest way for them to contact you if unexpected circumstances arose?

It would if I wished for them to contact me  on route. However I don't.

So if a site you were booked into while on tour ,had a major issue ,  you would just turn up at the locked gates, where you could been made aware by a voice message on you answer phone ,

Correct. However as my phone lives permanently in my RHS front trouser pocket and difficult to access when driving that is where it would remain until we arrived at site.  

An e-mail advising of a cancelled booking would be useful but that would only reach me up until 9am on the day of departure.

I am not against giving sites contact details but since they rarely know I am coming they would be unlikely  to ring mewink

I am lead to believe there are forum members who tour without booking or are you saying thats not possible in the UK?

👋👋 Perfectly possible. Some of us even use our smart phones while on the road. It works even better if you leave a contact number for sites to call you back if you have to leave a message.😂

ET is just practising inexorability. It’s very vogue at the moment, particularly in US. 👍

They have my mobile number but as we don't tend to answer unknown numbers they would have to leave a message. As my first thought would be that it was another cold or scam call, if we were on route we would probably be at the site before I got round to checking for a voice mail.

My co driver would do that, but would have answered the phone and listened before  it went into answer phone wink
