Bit perplexed by your reply but thanks for it.

The 6 regions mentioned were sufficient to have those sites that were wrongly placed put into their correct region. You have a heading for Wales and the Midlands. At least 5 of those sites that I mentioned can be found in the Midlands and Southport could easily have been placed in the Northern one. The errors were not made due to trying to shoehorn sites into a region that may be not have been categorised, merely someone being incompetent. If they didn't have any oversight then they could quite easily have consulted a Site Directory. However there does seem to be a team so probably not a lone person. Does anyone proof read these things?

BTW - As I write the "team" do not seem to have updated anything.

I’m puzzled by there being the Midlands and Central England. Is there a difference?

🤣 Most organisations use West Mids, East Mids. If you draw a line from Welsh Coast to East Coast, you usually get (W to E) Wales, West Mids, E Mids, East Anglia. For information of Club HQ, there’s even a very big airport called “East Midlands”. It’s not in East Anglia though👍

Rather than the stated reason that it is to help us all with the rising cost of living; am I the only one who has a sneaking suspicion that the price reductions are a recognition by the club that their pitch prices are currently too high compared to the competition!

We have just come back from Hillhead Caravan Club Site my wife was talking to a warden and he said that the prices are coming down and that there will be metered electricity put in.

Can’t say I’m surprised. Whilst we have been to the New Forest site  with a caravan, it’s not very appealing to those with a MH. Very little to do without leaving the site in a vehicle. Black Knowl  on the other hand is great. We have visited with both a caravan and a MH and there are so many options directly from  the site that the vehicle can stay put.

We have only stayed at the Centenary Site once, en route to the IOW. If we hadn't  been picked up and taken out for lunch I suspect we wouldn't have bothered. Can see the attraction for caravanners who want to set up for a while but unless you are into cycling or serious walking you really do need a car. I suspect its one of those sites which is popular in the school holidays and maybe weekends but can see that discounts might be needed at other times?

Whilst we have in the past used club sites a lot we don’t now so it’s rare that we look at threads regarding this-so it was quite a shock to see this sort of price.

Our last non club rally stay was 4 nights at South Lytchet in August and, as the trip was a necessity, we paid the £176 fee-but really can’t believe a club site in June is more.

Oscarmax' figures show about £45 a night for BK...a serviced pitch there on New Years Eve there is almost £60...

we've toured various parts of the uk over the past three weeks and, as we had a voucher, did use a couple of club sites. Checking the prices for very late Sept to mid October, I've come to the conclusion there is no 'off season' with regard to club prices.

there will always be a weekend, a school holiday, a 'premium month', a Bank Holiday or something else to punctuate the diary with 'spikes'...so much so that (these days) it's harder to find a trough than a peak🤷🏻‍♂️

we wanted to call in at Broadway on our way home and the Club site is close to £45 a night (£44.20 this Wednesday)...the small commercial (equidistant from the town) is £30. For an overnighter that's a big difference.
