We need more basic facility sites

And could it be that their prices are rising, as discussed in another thread, because the owners are providing more facilities? 

More facilities = more customers but also = higher costs? 🤷🏻‍♂️

Despite that equation, they seem to be providing what many folk want.

To M😁, I’d hazard a guess and say it’s a bumper time at the moment for CLs, of all kinds. Touring generally is booming still, there are some CLs in stunning locations that warrant a price to match, even if they don’t offer much in the way of facilities. Likewise, there are some beautifully presented CLs, with more than basic facilities, that give more exclusivity and VFM than any Club Site, even if in the £25-30 range. A lot of CLs use something else, such as pods, shepherds huts, B&B, cottages to give even more options for non touring family and friends. We are paying around £5 a night more for a CL at the moment, but this doesn’t equate to the hike in electrical prices, as some are non hook up. It’s just “market forces” at work. £8 for a no hook up two years ago, same site, no hook up is now £13, and you will be lucky to get a pitch it’s that busy!

It as most Hospitality venues would depend on land prices and the area that it is set up I would hopefully? think the estates department at EGH would look at where to put one🤔

Agree, I was thinking across a couple of threads talking about prices, hook ups, basic sites. Sorry😁

We have used 2 non facility sites this summer. 

Englethwaite Hall and Dockray Meadow. Both are a bit of a drive on narrow roads. Both of them were almost full on the nights we stayed and on both occasions it was mid week, not the busy weekends. 

I agree with you that these sites are wanted by the members, OK not all of the membership but not all of the membership want SPs on sites but the club still install them. 

The club has a big membership of varying ages, some want one thing while others want something completely different. We ALL have the right to make our voices heard.

Are both those sites what Harry has in mind?

I though it was basic sites like High Onn all in for £17,  or even without EHU, the two sites you mention are more than that and the only difference is that they are club sites without facilities? In fact EH is all HS and has SP as well. DM is all HS, is that what you call basic?

If that what Harry wants there are plenty of these sites already there?

Btw Englewaite Hall comes in today at over your limit you stated?

And of course it would be almost full over the summer that proves nothing, especially this summer when other sites were actually full, but there is plenty of pitches available till June next year while some sites with facilities and SP are already showing quite full over September and for Easter.

Quite simply put and the last two paragraphs sum up what I've been saying.
