Unwittingly I arrived early. Unaware of the 1pm checkin time, I arrived at 12 to be told I had passed three signs informing me of this fact.I may well have done, but, as I explained, I was unaware of this exception to the usual check in time. I was made to wait at the entrance for over an hour, despite the pitch that I wanted to go on being vacant and within 100 yards. No interest in cooperating with that fact. The wardens attitude being 'I am dammed if I do and dammed if I don't'. No vans left in the next hour and there were over 20 spaces available. We were booked for 3 nights. We had to abandon the site after two, despite moving to another pitch, due to flooding. I asked for a refund of the last night - no you have to give 72 hours notice to do that. Obviously, I couldn't give notice of heavy rain and flooding. I do think that the club is getting more and more uncooperative with it's members, I am sure that wardens get a hard time from us, but rules can be flexible surely, within reason. Don't intend staying there again..
