I think we chose a bad weekend!!

Reading the other reviews if this CL I think we may have chosen a bad weekend....not aided by the appalling weather!! We arrived late Saturday afternoon on our return from Scotland, fortunately we have a Caravan Club satnav with sites programmed in, as only saw one sign to CL as we approached it. Nobody met us on arrival, we had to go and search out owners in the nearby cottage to find out where to pitch in the VERY wet field ( caused by the torrential overnight rain they'd had, which continued that night and all the following day!) I think we disturbed the owner who was working on his computer...he came to door as if he wasn't expecting us - despite previous booking and email correspondence - quickly told us to go choose a pitch, briefly pointed out chemical waste disposal and waste bins and left us to it! It wasn't many minutes before we were stuck in the waterlogged field and needed to "disturb" the owner again to get some matting and assistance to get sited. He came out with some plastic matting that aided us to get to a pitch, then we never saw him again for the two nights we stayed. Fortunately we managed to hitch up and vacate the site on Monday morning with limited wheel slip and went to find the owner at the cottage to pay our fees. A pleasant lady answered the door, although again looking surprised at our presence. I advised her we were departing and asked if I could settle up with her...paid and left. I'm certain that in mid summer this could be a lovely peaceful grassy site, with chickens and fresh eggs on hand, but I have to say we were not impressed on this occasion. Will we try it again?....hmmm? Maybe if we can guarantee no rain in the weather forecast!!
