Good morning. We sincerely apologise for the inconvenience being caused with the implementation of our new booking system. Members and guests are able to make bookings through the new system however this is not the complete experience we have designed.
Please be assured our IT and Technical Teams are working extremely hard to resolve all of the issues as soon as possible.

Lovely area. There is a station for Dunster on the steam railway route (between Blue Anchor and Minehead). The village is a mile from the station but worth the walk. Dunster is idyllic: castle (NT), deer park, pack horse bridge over the stream, thatched cottages, yarn market, plenty of tea rooms and pubs.
Back on topic… I will shortly be trying to make some bookings at short notice. I do wish that the old version of Late Availability was still accessible. But I was heartened to read up-thread that it might be re-instated.

Just looking again at the new booking system - and what a shambles. I want to search for availability in the Midlands for when our new caravan arrives in early feb. i can't find how to book by region - it seems i need to put in a site. and the layout is appalling - obviously designed by a designer and not a practical ordinary member looking to see what is available.
This club site had advantages over the Camping and Caravan Club site by being able to focus in on areas and non-specific dates - now totally gone. the C&C club is a simple joy to use compared to this. i have seen Rowena's comments that the club is 'trying hard' to resolve issues - since i first saw this in September I have seen no improvement when making a general search for availability. . It can't just be me who feels so frustrated. ( for balance - I had no problems at all booking Garlieston for specific dates!)

I can't believe there are no comments on this since sept 2022! I posted the reply below (as I thought) but it got linked to some other reply and did not show here. so here it is again (possibly!)

Posted on 10/01/2023 19:27 by brueYes that word "reinstated," at this rate the whole system will revert back!
At least LA in it's familiar and useful list form is on the return list.

Peakman you can certainly search by counties, or even more specific locations. Just not by Peak District, Cotswolds etc. For say Devon, select location rather than campsite and type in Devon. Select Devon UK from the top of the list that appears and press search. You will get a map of the south west of the country including Devon. You can then zoom in to the area of interest and the sites in view will appear in the list on the left hand side.
It actually works better if you are more specific. Type in Exeter, select Exeter UK and you get a map of the area around Exeter showing the racecourse site and Stover. You can then zoom out if you want to look further afield.
As to non specific dates, it is totally possible. Don’t put any in and you can just scroll through the Calendar for your desired pitch type.

"I can't believe there are no comments on this since Sept 2022!"
The thread was started in Sept 2022 and there have been posts on almost a daily basis ever since amounting to 289 pages. Perhaps you only looked at page 1 🤷🏻♂️
Your two posts appear above which (although sometimes posts take 2-3 minutes to show) also suggests to me that you may not have moved to the latest page.

The phone app is terrible, it just crashes and trying to move round the map and then wait 5 mins for the sites to decide should they load in or not is so frustrating, i've just spent the winter using the other club and independent sites, what a sorry state
