Fast check-in at Lady Margaret's Park Club Campsite

Great news, fast check-in at Lady Margarets Park Club Campsite, in Wrexham, Wales is now here to stay

On arrival at the campsite, you can join the 'fast check-in' lane and go straight to the barrier which will automatically open, providing you have paid in full and your vehicle registration is correct. You'll then be able to confirm your pitch number via text and you're checked in, meaning you can start your holiday sooner!

You can still choose to check in via reception if you want to, just drive in the 'Reception check-in' lane instead and check in as normal.

If you're due to stay at Lady Margarets Park Club Campsite, you'll receive your first TEXT message 5 days before arrival but we recommend you also read the full FAQs below.

 

Frequently asked questions

Why are you automating access to Club campsites?

We have installed Automatic Number Plate Recognition (ANPR) technology on site to help us offer you the best and most efficient service, freeing up staff for other important jobs on site and speeding up the check-in process which benefits you the member but also shows the Club as a good neighbour by reducing the impact on the local roads.

Our trial in 2023 helped us to enhance the experience, and working with our sites teams we will continue to evolve this service to ensure it works as efficiently as possible.

Will all Club campsites be automated?

This is currently in operation at 4 Club campsite locations and we are planning to add more sites in the coming years. We will update this page and inform members as we add further locations.

How will I access the site?

You will have the choice to arrive, go to reception to check in and you will then be added to the fast check-in system. Or, if you would like faster access to the Club campsite, please make sure to pay by midnight the day before your stay and update your membership details with your vehicle registration. You will then be able to join the 'fast check-in' lane upon arrival which will be clearly signposted. Once you arrive at the barrier from 1pm, our cameras will verify your registration, a welcome screen will remind you of the pitch type you have booked and you will be able to proceed onto site.

What happens if the site arrival area is very busy? Can I still fast check- in?

You will have the choice to arrive, go to reception to check in and you will be added to the fast check-in system. Or, if you would like faster access to the Club campsite, please make sure to pay by midnight the day before your stay and update your membership details with your vehicle registration.

At busy times of the day you may still have a short wait while we process all arrivals. Please do not arrive before 1pm as this will block the entrance way for those already staying on site.

How will I know where to pitch?

Once you arrive at the barrier, our cameras will verify your registration, a welcome screen will remind you of the pitch type you have booked and you can proceed onto site. We will send you a link to the site plan by TEXT before arrival and we recommend that you familiarise yourself with the site plan before you arrive.

I haven't paid, how do I pay in advance?

You will receive a TEXT message 5 days prior to your stay to notify you that there is a balance outstanding for your stay with a link to make payment on the website. If you have set the booking to autopay, this will automatically come out of your account at 2am on the day of arrival. If not, you will be required to submit your payment by midnight the day before your stay or park on arrival at the Club campsite and visit reception.

Once your registration is acknowledged by the fast check-in system, and the barrier has opened to let you in, a TEXT will be sent to your mobile phone asking you to reply to the message with details of your chosen pitch number. Once you have found your pitch, please respond to the TEXT message with your pitch number and we will complete your check-in. Please only provide your pitch number and no other information, this is an automated service. If you do not receive a TEXT please either let the staff on site know or visit reception to provide them with the details.

What happens if I arrive without a booking?

We encourage everyone to book in advance. However, if you arrive on site without an existing booking or have made an on-the-day booking, please pop into reception during office hours. The fast check-in system does not currently integrate with bookings made on the day of arrival, so if you arrive late you risk not being able to enter the Club campsite.

What happens if I want to leave early?

You can leave whenever but please make sure to inform our Club campsite staff of the time of your departure.

What is Visitor.Express?

Visitor.Express is a product from NetFM, our partner for fast check-in. They provide the technology that enables the fast check-in process to work efficiently based on accurate data.

I have friends visiting me on site, how do they access through the barrier?

Please let the site team know you are expecting visitors and provide them with the vehicle registration which can be temporarily added to your booking to enable access to the visitors car park. Please do this before 10am or the day before to ensure access is seamless as visitor parking is beyond the barriers.

There is no change to the current process. You should continue to visit reception to collect a key to the storage compound using the Reception arrival lane.

What if I have a non-standard vehicle registration plate?

If you have a non-standard UK vehicle registration plate (unusual font, spacing or a film that prevents reading of your vehicle registration) you will not be able to use our fast check-in service. Please join the reception check-in queue to discuss access arrangements.
