Every water company is as bad as the next, look at the discharge of raw sewage into Lake Windermere. Nothing will change until the government starts to financially penalize the whole of the company's board and not the companies themselves as it is then the general public who have to pay the cost of the fine.

There’s no mention of any issues on the “before you travel” webpage, or the actual Site web page.

 I've brought this issue to the attention of HO with a view to it being added to the 'before you travel' information for the site.

If the site is affected, good idea to inform those on their way. At least they can make plans to stock up on bottled water going down, or fill up on board tanks as much as possible.

I do hope that no one has filled their containers, especially MH tanks with contaminated water.  Cleaning such containers and van systems, of that bug can be extremely challenging.

We were due to visit Hillhead on 3rd June,  very disappointed that the club have not said if site affected or not on website, it looks to be in the middle of the outbreak. As it will take a while to resolve and I don't want the bug in my pipes and barrels we have cancelled and booked elsewhere. Come on CAMC think about your members and visitors health not loss of revenue.

I believe the alleged source of the outbreak is just down the road from the Hillhead site.  No more than 1/4 mile as the crow flies.
