Unconfirmed all sites arrival times to be 1300 hrs

JK

Is there any reasoning behind this that can be shared?

Nellie, we stayed at Wagtail Country Park and Fields End Water this month, both being AS sites and they were both 12.00 arrival times and both times are correct. I'm sure AS sites can determine their own arrival and departure times so if anyone going to one might want to check if it's important to them.

We did see a PVC pull up into the arrivals area at Wirral CP last week at 10.30. Still sat there when we got back to site just gone 12.00. Don't know why you would want to waste time like that when you are in a motorhome. Plenty of free parking on the front West Kirby, just a few miles up the coast. "Nowt as weird as folk", as the new woke saying goes.

WN, it isn’t a woke saying-it’s been around since the early 1900’s, you are reading something into it that has never been there🤷🏻‍♂️

Rocky, as WN says, it's been wokeified  !!  One cannot refer to anybody as that saying used to do !! There's nowt so q***r as folk could get one thrown out of Lancashire, never mind Yorkshire  !!

Nobody said anything when we arrived at Baltic Wharf at 12:10 on the 14th. The you’ll be in before you know it email, received on the 5th, even specified  12:00. Perhaps they won’t bother changing as it’s closing shortly.

For those in a caravan (or indeed a MH) who like to arrive and get set up before going out to explore, they are going to fine very little daylight in which to do this on day one once check in and even basic set up are sorted.

£35-50 for a pitch in those circumstances seems a lot of dosh to (effectively) just park.

In winter when sites aren't full, why can't arrivals come much earlier? No doubt there were loads of empty pitches that could have been used.

the club just cannot do flexible.

as mentioned in the leccy increase thread, the current staffing model prevents the way many commercial/continental sites work.

the bedrock of CAMC processes is the limiting of any fundamental change due to the fixed staffing routines.

while this is in place no other advances in customer service can be accommodated, we remain in the last century.

A motorhome having the temerity to park on a seafront? Gasp, shock, horror! That could precipitate the collapse of civilisation, if some local councils are to be believed.

very little daylight in...

Really? Yes in the deep midwinter maybe but even now up here (just past the equinox) it's 'daylight' officially till 18.29 and of course this time next week it will be a hour later. As most sites (club or not) don't open till about now plenty of time?

Even with an awning I can get set fully up in less than a hour leaving quite a lot of daylight even now and in summer it will more than a quarter of a day?
