The opposing view

Having been a member for 43 years and just having spent 5 nights at Malvern I really do not understand some of the negative views. The site is in a superb setting - trees, shrubs, views to the hills from lots of pitches etc. The toilet block is perfectly adequate and exceptionally clean. As for the signage from the road, I really think some members need to go to Specsavers! At what speed were they travelling? Yes, the CCC sign is larger but there is a CMC sign at the large entrance - if not quite so prominent - but this is what you are looking for and in my opinion is not that hard to see. Once into the site(s) entrance the CMC sign quite clearly has an arrow on it pointing straight on - past the Girl Guide Centre - or do members turn down here too? We have stayed at this site many times over the years and have always found wardens friendly and helpful. Now - to the matter of grass cutting!!! This has been our only bug bear over the years. Sometimes the tractors have cut the grass for hours every day of our stays. Or the strimmer has been going. The noise has been horrendous. This time - for four whole days - the grass has not been cut - paradise. Not once! The grass is not full of weeds as mentioned but clover (both colours!) and bird's foot trefoil etc. The grass is only about 2/3 inches tall and looks in our opinion, glorious. Reminded us of our many trips to France where the grass is always left and just cut when absolutely necessary - and the sites are peaceful as they should be - we are, after all, on holiday for goodness sake! We btw stay on grass with our motorhome when possible - this is our choice - not because there are no hardstandings left as suggested - and the grass pitches being at all angles looks lovely. We do not want the grass to look like a bowling green or the pitches to be all in a line. I suggest members who do choose somewhere where they can park on tarmac, like Warwick. Not a blade of grass or weeds on non awning pitches there to annoy anyone. And, yes, we have stayed there too on many occasions. It's as good a site as Malvern - just different. Have I mentioned that we've thoroughly enjoyed our 5 night stay on grass at Malvern?

Member4ever.   Your review of this site seems to contradict itself. If you think it's so great and we should have gone to Specsverers why have you only rated this site with mostly ones which is a dreadful rating. The site was not that bad!

I think it's a genuine error. The review has been duplicated and I did ask the same question on the other version. I'm hoping the OP will come back to clarify on one or other version, though I suspect it'll be too late to actually change the ratings by then.

Oops!!!  I really thought I had given five stars for all categories!  I think it is five star in every way.  Sorry I can't change it. Can the admin?
