Why is it necessary for the club sites to seek excessive profits on school holidays. My son has booked a pitch at Brecon beacon site for the Easter holidays. Cost per night for 2 adults and 1 child £37.80 per night. The following week it would have been £ 27.95. What extra costs does the running of the site between the 2 weeks. .Nothing just exploiting the members because of the school holidays. Yet another excuse to make more money from the members when we already pay a membership fee.

Just another way that the "club" is now operating with a commercial bias rather than member focussed.

Why can't the club be both? A commercial bias in operating a large network of sites, extending the offering on sites by way of Glampling pods to bring more people into on outdoor lifestyle. Then being a members club by offering rallies and events which are run by members for members.

I really don't see how the club would survive if it didn't have a commercial focus.
