CL Sites with toilets (Delicate subject)

OK, Time for a delicate topic. With many sites not opening toilet or shower blocks, Im somewhat baffled how people are going on in caravans or motorhomes on these sites.

Ive looked at CL sites but odd though it seems, most do not appear to have the most basic thing that being a loo !

Maybe it's just me, but I find it inconceivable toilets in motorhomes or caravans would be used for anything but a convenient pee, heaven forbid anybody should tell me Im wrong ha !

Are there such a thing as CL sites with a shower and loo ?

There are lots of CLs with very nice loos and showers. However, we are in exceptional times, so you will need to check that the CL you might choose is opening them for use. Choose your area, click on the loo/shower icon, and it will show you choices for that area. I would have a good read through reviews for each CL, as these will give you an idea of how nice the loos and showers are. You will then need to check with owners that they are indeed in use, as this year some CLs are making pitches available, but some are not opening their shared facilities.

If your needs are such that you cannot manage without a loo, Club Site facilities are open with restrictions.

Yes.....you are wrong!

They are designed for full use, the only reason you are not doing so is your own preference!

Your choice .

Why are you even discussing this in the CL section

It's what CLs are about

Go to a Club Site

That's a bit harsh, isn't it? If the OP hasn't used CLs before and is now thinking of doing so surely we should be encouraging him - it's down to personal choice whether one chooses a CL on the basis of having a toilet or not. Give the guy a bit of slack!  👍

We would pay zero interest to whether the CL/CS has or has not got toilets, we use ours and certainly in these Covid-19 times would not use any site supplied loo facility.

Bringing up children in the "terry nappy" era, without the additional challenges encountered with major illnesses in later life, nothing we might find in our caravan's toilet would phase either of us.

Using a camping loo is not going to involve anything novel mankind has not faced before and here it is dealt with very hygienically, designed  explicitly for doing that job.

We opt for non facility sites wherever possible.  Use our van shower on a daily basis - and obviously our loo, when ever needed, and for whatever!!

Even when on full facility Club sites we are more than likely to use our own facilities.

We havent found it straight forward booking CLs this year - so plenty of people are quite happy without loos & showers being provided.

Just give it a try.

Totally agree

People looking for advice do not need to read replies like that

Just to give you some idea of the number of cl's with toilets and showers go to the header of this page and look in Uk Holidays, scroll left to Book a Certificated Location. Once the page loads leave the destination box blank, scroll down to the filter boxes and tick Electric, Showers and Toilets then click search. The result shows 573 cl's with facilities. They will all be shown in alphabetical order so for any particular area scroll back up and put in a location. You can then choose at leisure and read the site review too.

As others have said, ask the cl owner if the facilities are open
