Fast check-in at Southland Club Campsite

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.

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.

You will have the choice to arrive and 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 12pm, 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.

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 call the campsite office with the details. These can be left on the answer machine if you provide your surname and pitch number.

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, during office hours please pop into reception. 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.

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

When you next come to the Club campsite please come to reception so the team can set you up on the system for Fast track check-in. If you have multiple vehicles or a motorbike, let the team know so they can add them to the system and let you know how to access the Club campsite. You will need to let the staff know as you do currently if you have anyone extra staying as they will need to pay an extra fee.

The Club campsite team will ensure your storage pitch is loaded into our new system along with your vehicle registration. This will enable entry once you have collected the key for the storage compound from reception on arrival.

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.
