I phoned Arden CL earlier today to enquire about availablity of a hardstanding for an 8 metre motorhome.   The lady who answered asked me when did I need this, I said tomorrow (Sunday).   She quickly replied "no, we are not open".     I pointed out that she was listed as an "open all year site" and there was nothing listed to suggest otherwise.    She said we will be open towards late February, I then said to her, well I would phone the CC and inform them that they are not open all year, despite this being shown on their details.

She said that wouldn't be necessary for me to phone them as they are "normally" open all year round.   She gave no reason as to why they were closed and at that point I decided not to pursue the matter as she wasn't forthcoming with the information.

I will still inform the Caravan Club about this.    This is the first time that we have been away at this time of year and has prompted me to wonder, does "OPEN ALL YEAR" actually mean what it says.   Or as these CLs are private businesses, I can only assume that it is at the owner's discretion.......what do others think, I am willing to be enlightened for future reference.
