Marazion

I doubt whether it's a matter of giving up on them but if the Club can develop a site with full facilities it will do as A) it will be more popular and B) it will draw more revenue into the coffers. 

David, Over the years I have stayed on  at least a dozen different non facility sites, usually in May or September but even occasionally in school summer time, and every single time they have either been full or as near as makes no difference. These sites generally attract those members who use CLs or don't mind using their own facility so I disagree with your view that they are not as popular. 

They have lower maintenance costs and lower initial capital outlay and if my experience is anything to go by excellent return on the clubs investment.

I think the club tend to ignore their own remit of a few years ago during rebranding when they said they would be ready for the next explorer, whoever that happened to be! Well we're already members so pretty easy to find.

Give me a non facility site over a car park club site any day. 

Marazion is a popular Site, certainly June through to September. We had to book ASAP back in the late 90’s to ensure we got a pitch for the Summer. It’s not open that long, has a short season, think it might be Easter to end of October🤔 It’s one of those Sites where you get a nice mix of outfits, more older stuff rather than all brand new and shiny. 

but the club can do no wrong in the eyes of some ... and some were just glad to be away

But as said by the hired motor caravan drivers at FM even. at non members prices, they considered the prices very reasonable ,certainly not premium ,that is how those on the "the outside" see the clubs prices even with the present restrictions on, with being asked if possible to use your own on board  facilties, to keep ones self safer

Ps as for paying and not getting a return I guess all the roads you use are perfect?

That’s rather rude. I wouldn’t use it about your choices.

Apart from that, it is where we wanted to be at that moment in time.
