In November last year we booked a CL with serviced pitches etc for a seven nights stay. The description of the site stated that it was surrounded by trees and we accepted this. When we arrived we were allocated a pitch which was under very tall trees even though there were two other vacant pitches in the open and enjoying sunshine. Our allocated pitch turned out to be a nightmare. It was very dark, comparatively cold and when it rained we were subjected to hours of constant drips on the roof. The owner told me that the better pitches were kept for regular visitors and long term visitors. As the week went by we found that this wasn’t really the case. On the sunny pitch next to ours, in the space of the seven days there were four different outfits, only one of which was a returning visitor, for two nights only, and none of whom had booked very far in advance. It turned out that one of the outfits had told the owner that they wanted a sunny pitch because they had a solar panel on the roof. They were only staying three nights . To me this seemed very unfair when we were there for a week and had booked so far in advance. Unfortunately, Google Earth didn’t show the site layout very well when we looked before we booked. Are we being unreasonable expecting one of the better pitches?
