Awning Size

We don’t have an awning but I can certainly think of some sites where it would be an issue. Cirencester for one, on many of the hardstanding pitches.

6. Using awnings, tents or other items

a. On pitches with awning space guests can erect an awning, however, should guests' awnings be wider than 2.5 metres and the awning pitch be unable to accommodate the size of this, the guest will be unable to erect their awning. Guests may also put up a tent for extra sleeping accommodation, or a specially designed toilet or cooking tent, provided the main outfit is occupied, but please keep them within the designated pitch area.

I can think of a few sites where a 3m awning wouldn't fit. I suppose one would have to ring the site in question prior to booking/arrival?

Another point to consider is that some sites don't permit sleeping in awnings.  Don't ask me why.

Isabella awnings are good but terribly over engineered with flimsy zips when a Velcro fastening  would suffice and you pay top wack. Suggest you look at an Inaca as an alternative

I’ve had an Isabella Commodore 3m deep awning for 10 years and used it on many club sites (both CAMC and C&CC) and never had any issues. It’s a great awning and although quite expensive at first, in my opinion is great value for money.

We had a Kampa 390 Grande which is a full 3m wide and never had a problem with it in terms of size on any of this Club's or t'other Club's sites.  That said, we tend to use more CLs and CS's than Club sites and it's never a problem on those.

We replaced it with a Thule Omnistor and Veduta awning which is 2.75m wide. The only Club site that's been on is Bridlington and looking at a photo I have, there's a good metre to spare on the pitch but I accept that not all pitches are as generous as that.

Personally, I'd risk it - on the basis that the extra half metre of space does make a massive difference.
