A very nice site but the access road is a nightmare

It is a lovely site, in a great location, and provides everything you would expect from a C&MH Club site. However, as commented in reviews by other users, the access road presents some real issues if your are unfortunate enough, as we were when leaving, to meet some early arrivals. It created an extremly difficult situation and really put a spoiler on an otherswise very pleasant stay. Definitely we will not revisit, it is a last resort. We were leaving, as required by the site, before 12:00 noon, and were fortunate to be by the layby nearest the site, before the first van arrived. We managed to get past despite the other driver making little effort to assist the process. Unfortunately, we were then confronted by a second van, at the end of the lane, where there is a smaller layby. The driver was probably the most inconsiderate, unhelpful and unapologetic person we have ever met, who had no concept of the probelem they had created, but were very well rehursed in reasons why they could not help solve the problem. We can only assume they were together and trying to get onsite to secure adjacent pitches. The C&MH procees of securing a pitch may tend to encourage early arrival? We eventually managed to manoeuvre the vans, and got past, but it was very difficult. I agree, it seems the lane layout is deliberately designed to create maximum stress when two units meet. We cannot understand, either, in a Club, why members cannot just help each other, and be nice! In some respects we hope they were not allowed on site early, and that there is a process for reprimanding inconsiderate behaviour. I understand the site guidance requests members to be mindful of arrival, and departure times, requesting no arrivals before 1pm. Considering the issues raised in other reviews, whilst fixing the access road to be something more appropriate for a busy site with over 200 pitches, would be best, putting a member of staff at the road entrance to admit arrivals only after 1pm would create a safe, low stress, period for departures.
