Steamer Quay Upgrade

Which was what i posted above...but thanks for the endorsement...

but, you've got my site habits wrong...

Thanks to the club's free night voucher ill be using a club site this coming month.

Of course, folk do have different needs when on site so wouldnt it be nice to be able to choose an SP (or not) on a site (as on the vast majority of club sites) just like we will be able to choose our power requirements moving forward?

if a service is separately chargeable, as an SP is, then customers should have the choice to take up the service or not.

im more than happy for folk who want SP to book and pay for them. My point is that every visitor to a site, SQ, should have the opportunity to book a non SP pitch.

the club is apparently promoting 'choice' across the network by constantly telling us there are non EHU pitches available 'at many sites' yet with a new development like this, they decide to have all the pitches set at the SP level. I think that's wrong.

of course, as per the mantra, I (or anyone else) can 'go elsewhere' which will probably be my 'choice'.

im sure the site will be great, probably full, so well done club....

Happy to agree with you Steve, as I said, some will think the price is worth it, "even if it doesn't make (economic) sense"

my point is that the club has removed the very choice they promote so regularly in their mail shots...

 You're last sentence pretty much hits the nail on the head yt, and I'm sure that during the winter months it will be pretty much full with motorhomes

Feliz ano nuevo bud.

I really can't see what all the fuss is about here - admittedly we've never been motor homers and are unlikely ever to be, so perhaps someone can explain.

As I posted up thread we visited Totnes back in October and used the car park being mentioned. Now, having considered some of the "long term" residents I certainly wouldn't want to stay there overnight. But the experienced motor homers who are casting so much opprobrium at the club seem to think it's fine - so surely you'd use that instead of paying "inflated" club prices for facilities you don't need?

And it's only about an extra few hundred metres to walk into Totnes.

As Steve says,  many motor homers apparently like serviced pitches and will pay for them. So let them holiday in the way they choose and do your own thing surely?

Edit - thinking about it again, surely even if one was given the option of staying but not paying for the unwanted facilities, the price would still be far to high for those used to "aire" type sites or basic CLs?
