I think it's par for the course for site owners to quite reasonably preserve their pitches in the best possible condition for the next occupant and if that's what the site owner or warden says, then so be it.
You don’t say if this is a club site, CL or commercial site but the club says the following in its site rules.

I suppose it’s all to do with the look of the grass perhaps? The groundsheet issue is just one of the reasons we will hardly ever use a grass pitch as I don’t like damp grass being trodden into the caravan. I honestly could not be doing with lifting the awning carpet every day or two!! If we can’t get a hardstanding pitch, on a CL for instance, we don’t use the awning at all just a canopy.

Posted on 09/07/2021 19:58 by margaret clevelandFor the first time ever, we have been asked not to have a carpet (even a breathable one) in our awning. Surely, a little area of discoloured grass is part for the course for site owners. Any thoughts?

Posted on 09/07/2021 20:51 byYou have my sympathy There seems to be a difference of opinion about what the purpose of a site I.e is it for the benefit of the paying customer or the owner. With a little care short term discoloration of a patch of grass should be easily recovered and as someone who dislikes awnings without carpet idont regard it as unreasonable to put something down

Posted on 09/07/2021 21:20 by dave the raveI would not want to use a pitch where the grass is discoloured so it is for the benefit of the customer!
