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 have not read every post word for word as some as been repetative .

What happens with large units as in the past the warden cone off a pitch that is suitable for my size of unit?Although I still have had the option to choose another available pitch if I wanted 

There as also mention that they have already introduced 1pm as the earliest arrival time .

I have just looked at the Abbey wood site for next year and it appears they are a lot earlier 

Type of site:Club

Open to:Non members welcome

Open all year

Earliest arrival time:10:00

Total pitches:151 (95 hardstanding)

Max outfit length (m):9

There are a few sites where the lease conditions specify a different arrival time  the 1300 arrival times that many sites have as the earliest time has been in operation for at least the last two years,

As I understand it the request via the site staff for a pitch suitable for a longer vehicle will not change as although pitch type is to be introduced it will not mean a specific pitch ,

 Afternoon

A suitable pitch will be made available as you've experienced before GB. Nothing changes there except when the new system takes over you'll have the choice to book the surface type. Even then a pitch will be available.

Arrival times are normally 12.00 or 13.00 with exceptions as you've found, there are a few that have early arrival times Edinburgh is another that comes to mind. There are various reasons for that which jv has covered already.

I will book two , the night before the ferry and the night we are heading home.

BTW When does the deposit taking start?

 Afternoon

When the new system goes live, I think at present they're looking at April, new bookings or amendments after that will mean a deposit.

Thank goodness we have no intention of using any sites that we need to book ahead. 

Anything before April will be last minute, anything after April and before the end of June will be abroad.

Might even not bother to renew our membership for 2022 and just use the CCC sites until this club sort themselves out.

Reading through this thread has been exhausting, life is for living.

Agree, I see no benefit in remaining now, we are tending to use C&CC more for THS & centre weekends plus when using sites with the wrinkly and other discounts the C&MC are almost double in cost plus C&CC have more choice in booking especially being able to book a pitch with no EHU.

I've already booked my 2 nights before the ferry going out in May, not with this club but with the C&CC much better placed for our drive down the M6.

Way better price as its straight after the first May Bank Holiday, which they are not in high season but this club is wink

We of course have booked a H/S, soon to available with the CAMC but not at the time I made my booking.

All in all we have found over the last 2 years we have used C&CC way more.

Us to, hardly used a CAMC site in the last 2 years. 

Membership due in May so might just cancel the DD before going away to France.
