Yes indeedy!!! What a good idea - the driver can see a peg from whatever side he is reversing from. I commented on it to the warden, who said 2 pegs have been rolled out across the network "because some people have difficulty in understanding the rule when there was only one peg."

I've said before the ideal pitching is a nice patch of gravel for van and awning where you can pitch as you want, with lots of grass around for your comfort, enjoyment and required fire break distance.
Well this week I found such a site. We are just back from a lovely few days in Cornwall, staying about 15 miles south of Truro at https://www.trethem.com/ It is a few miles past the C&MC site Merrose Farm Club Campsite.
At £31 a night for two it is not the cheapest but compares very well with other sites. It was fabulous. When we turned up the office gave me a selection of pitches to choose from and said the only constraint was car and awning must be on the gravel. You can go in frontwards, backwards to the left or right, and as you have a small Eriba crossways if you wish. Well I tried the crossways but my levelling block could not cope, so it was nose out.
The site is difficult to fault, generous gravel areas surrounded by lovely grass, privacy from hedges, immaculate landscaping, spotless facilities, free across site wi-fi, TV points on your bollard. You even get a pub style table and bench. Wood fired oven Pizzas cooked to order on Mondays [nice] and Fish & Chip van on Thursdays.
If you are looking for a site in the area I can recommend it.
