Was thinking of staying at Godrevy Park Cornwall during the Easter holidays but the club are charging top whack for the full two weeks, 29.00 for a grass pitch, I can stay at Gwithian farm on a hard standing for 21.00, site is just up the road and a little closer to the beach.
Another couple of hundred quid the club can afford to chuck, take it or leave it

Just going back to the OP, I happened to check Haven Perran Sands for Easter weekend 3 nights on grass (2 adults & 2 children) £155.75 or HS £213.60! (Apparently that's a good deal as it includes 25% off!) 
Still think Godrevy is a rip off?

Personally, I tend to think club serviced pitches are a bit of a rip off anyway, though I know some like them which is fair enough if they're happy to pay the extra.
A standard pitch at Chatsworth over Easter is £34.60 - just down the road in Bakewell at an inferior (IMHO) commercial site, it's £31, and I know which of the two I'd choose having stayed at both in the past!

Don't have a problem with Easter week end high prices as I would not use them. What I cant understand is the length of Easter Peak Period, when this W/E and the W/E after Easter has huge amounts of vacancies. Would they be full if the prices were reasonable? Could the club not try say " last minute discounts" on these vacant pitches even if only on a trial basis. I know I would be interested.
Posted on 07/03/2018 18:35 by codyI don't see the reason, apart from the Easter weekend I bet all the club sites in Cornwall will be less than half empty.

Not the sites we looked out, e.g. Hendra had only 5 grass non electric left for the Easter weekend, and others were full. Even the rallies in Cornwall (C&CC) over the Easter weekend are expensive compared to other regions. We have to be in Cornwall for a family event on 9th April and thought we would take the van down and have an extended break. We are now having a week at Porth Beach starting 3rd April, at a rally for £14 per night. Prices dropped as soon as Easter itself ended.
