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.

Moderator Edit:

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.

Put simply why does it give no detail about arrival time at Coniston as being 10am but for Edinburgh it does list as 10am.

Exactly!  I rest my case.   Confusion continues to reign.

Probably its expected but not having much success, that English  members would be aware wink

With some staff still working from home,  because of socialas it seems with two other companies we have dealt with in the last week, those who are at the "coal face"are very much doing more than their "bit"to keep all things up to date,  as we have found things get missed

Evening

If you look at the corona virus faq's on this website it does state that as of 24/7 people will be required to wear a face covering in reception and communal areas.

the site apart from Edinborough which arr time is as per the lease/

All the sites on the list as far as i have noted that show 1300 are temp times

I can see what your getting at JVB, as I note Chatsworth (which I also know to be 1pm) shows no time.

However, the top of the page clearly states:-

"The earliest arrival times are from 12pm for all campsites unless otherwise stated."

If what you say is the case and it is only showing the temporary changes, it needs to clearly state that. Indeed if that was the intention it would have made much more sense just to list those sites that had changed. Including all the sites is just confusing.

I still read it as "from" many places advertise their products  as "from"wink

I think as with a lot of posts it is a bit of "nit picking"  just to keep "finding"problems that as everything it seems these days, ,  is not their perfect world that some would expect others to a here tosurprisedundecided

I think what's missing is a professional approach. Perfection is rare but a bit of joined up thinking is the least one would expect.

When I produced material of any complexity to be delivered to local people when highway works were being undertaken I would get a few people who new nothing about the scheme and a couple who had a general awareness in order that it was proof read. It is all too easy to overlook points when producing such stuff when you yourself have intimate knowledge and no fully what you want to present.

No idea what systems the club use but there seems too many fails over the years were one might think that proof reading had only considered grammar rather than content.

I know staff are working from home and that could certainly be a reason for the very slow response to this. However, working from home is no excuse for the very sloppy presentation. From 12:00 means just that, not go and consult other sources to see when it is OK to arrive.😀

There has still of course not been a global email, so unless folk use CT or check / understand the web site, there will still be queues back to Lime Tree Avenue.☹️

Unless individuals are being notified before arrival. Most businesses might consider doing this by text and e-mail.

You can say it. However, we're not talking about any other business here.
