Ease of arrival/welcome

Pleasant commercial site but not a true CL, beware of the price quoted!

Commercial site of approx 15-20 pitches/long term storage pitches with CL, although unclear which bit this is. Great location, just a few miles out of Lincoln city centre. Well kept. Clean toilet/shower (50p meter). The down sides - we were quoted £20 per night. Then on arrival we were told about the electric meter system - very confusing new meter system left lots of caravanners unhappy and scratching our collective heads. Owner was clearly very dedicated to checking the meters and charging additional fees for "overuse" but wasn't very helpful in explaining clearly. We were frankly baffled, as were our neighbours on other pitches. Neither did we feel welcome when the owner questioned the size of our family, We have four lovely polite teenagers who all live with us at home, twins twice, all our own. Hardly a house party. We won't return, there are enough genuine, family friendly five pitch CLs with more transparent pricing.

Thank you for your review, we had just had the meters installed and I did check the meters for my own benefit, neither you or anyone on the site had to pay any more money than the £20.00 quoted, you only paid the winter charge of £20 per night. and in that £20.00 you were allowed £5.00 of electric per night( The summer price is £18.00) The meter is a safeguard to stop customers leaving the heating and other appliances switched on when they go out for the day. Regarding your teenage children, Our prices are based on two people in the unit, any additional adults (over the age of 16years) we make a charge of £1 per night per person, I thought your sons looked over the age of 16yrs obviously I was wrong, if you recall l ask the gentleman “how many adults are there” (not the size of your family)he replied very abruptly “two” I took him at his word gave him his receipt and left. We have grand children that visit and love to see children enjoying themselves on our site.  With regard to the size of the site we only have 13 electric pitches in total and we do have two caravans on winter storage.  However I am sorry if I made you feel uncomfortable, it certainly wasn’t the intention we try to help the best we can. We have had the caravan club CL for 30 years now and I think this must be the first time I’ve upset someone I do apologise Allison
