Officious warden whilst pitching
The positives first: a lovely well kept site well placed for walking to the lovely village of Sewerby , the coast. Flamborough etc. Super dog walk.
Our stay was marred however by the warden who at noon each day lurked around the centre of the site to keep an obsessive eye on new arrivals pitching. We have a large twin axle van which my husband needed to reverse onto pitch due to problems at that time with the mover. This necessitated the front offside wheel of our 4x4 venturing onto 6" of grass on the opposite pitch and touching a small wooden marker post. This resulted in the warden running over shouting that my husband was wrecking the site! He wasn't offering to help which would have been acceptable. To make matters worse he then hovered around issuing unwelcome and unnecessary instructions. He came across as being officious and obsessive re: pitching and the grass areas. My husband after a stressful journey likes to be left to site the van - he is wel aware of the CC pitching requirements. The warden would benefit from some customer care training and as a previous reviewer has pointed out reminding that the Club is run for the benefit of the members and grass areas should not be no go areas. Whilst this warden was waiting to pounce on new arrivals each day the dog bin in the dog walk steadily overflowed until people were piling their bags on the ground under the bin. During the 4 days we were there it wasn't emptied once.
