The Club have released more details of the new Booking System here 

There are still finer details still to be arrived but the link (thanks Harry) sets out how the new system will work.

I have closed the previous thread on when we will get details of the new booking system and opened this one to allow comments specifically on the new system rather than discussing what they might be.

I would say it means if you have a serviced or non awning that will stay valid but if you have a standard awning pitch you will be contacted and given the opportunity to choose HS or Grass

I don't think you'll be contacted, Arch, as it says they know most members prefer HS so will allocate HS pitches as far as possible.

It appears that by transferring all old bookings to the new system they've removed any need for people to cancel and rebook.

Sorry I completely miss read it, they are going to allocate HS to all existing standard pitch bookings starting with the oldest booking followed by Grass if HS run out then if you want you can amend the pitch type on the new system, so it also looks like the ability to amend pitch type will be available

We have already had a phone call from the daughter and the son in law asking if we have booked to go away if so can they stay for a few days I wonder if this will be effected by the new booking system as in the past they arrive we go into reception book them in and pay

If that is the case, there will be very few hardstands ,this year anyway,?  for those who want to book a hardstand under the new system when it opens surprised

Yes that is true and I do recall that from out visit but when it rains (and it did) the grass still got wet and there was some mud around, but worst of all there were a lot rabbits and they left many deposits (smile) and a lot of all of this got trampled into the awning and caravan despite our best efforts.

We just prefer HS.

Rabbits do not poo on gravel then? I wonder if this trait has been studied by David Attenborough.
