Not quite what I expect from a 'top' caravan site

I have been a caravanner/motorhomer for more than 30yrs, and in that time have visited many campsites. Firstly, let me say that the facilities on site are spotlessly clean, the staff are 'efficient' and that the site is tidy. However, in spite of the site covering a huge area (almost a mile of roadway around a golf course - according to one warden), the campsite placements were rather close to one another, with no hedges to provide any screen. Furthermore, many of the pitches are far from level, the site being very hilly in places. Even using my wheel ramps, I was not able to level our van sufficiently. My neighbouring caravanner resorted to using three thick pieces of wood and two housebricks under two of his corner steadies, raising his van steadies some three feet off the ground - looking rather unsafe! Upon arrival at the site, one is told to go and find a pitch, and then return to the office to let the staff know which pitch you are on. Well, that may be OK if you are reasonably close to the office, but what if you are unlucky and have to choose a pitch half a mile away! The staff NEED to allocate pitch numbers as members arrive, as this would save a lot of effort. There were excellent toilet/shower blocks on the site, but be warned, your caravan could be sited a good distance away and you may also need to be a 'mountain goat'! This could be an excellent site given its location, if just a little more thought and effort went into the organisation and the provision of some landscaping to provide 'reasonably level' pitches, and possibly the addition of some hedging.
