Sites without a toilet block

Our favourites are St Agnes and Plymouth Sound both are also popular for seasonal pitch users. We can get to these sites easily from where we live. Wish we were near to Altnahara, that would be on our return list too. 

Firstly thanks to Nellie for his comprehensive list, most useful. We quite like non facility sites and have used a selection of those listed. This year we stayed at Cadeside which is a nice little site and walking distance of Wellington (Somerset) Last year we stayed at Northbrook Farm in Worthing although if the plans go through I think they are intending to do the same as Steamer Quay, hardstanding electric serviced pitches and open all year. They will lose some of the site to housing but whether it goes ahead might depend on the Council changing their minds on allowing a larger storage facility?

YT, we like non facility sites and CLs. 

The non facility sites we tend to use are The Clachan at Killin was £17 a night in 2022 now £18. Englethwaite Hall near Carlisle was £21.90 last time we used it. Dockray Meadow is another one we like I think that was around the £22.50 mark.

Comparing them to main sites I always find them quieter, not so many folk going backwards and forwards to the facility block. They also tend to have less families on them, more of the adults with dogs, folk who like to be outdoors being active kind of folk.

Comparing them to CLs, well they are just bigger, tend to be more 'organised' mostly hardstands. Like many CLs they tend to be in beautiful scenic areas. Prices now are very favourable compared to some CLs. I just happened to see a CL near where our friends live on the West Coast of Scotland advertised at £37 a night 😲

The Clachan at £18 all season, is almost half the price of the main club site Maragowan, less than a mile along the road.

Long may these non facility sites remain. 

I am pleased to here that Club sites are  gradually being modernised.

I remember sites without power, flush toilets, somewhere to wash and shower, or wash and dry clothes, and without abundant hot water for dish washing 50 years ago. I abandoned them quickly as standards elsewhere improved.

No independent or commercial site owner would dream of offering  a campsite like that.
