Last night I downloaded the new Caravan club Site app and had a look at a few for availability. Starting with a couple of Freedom (£14 a night) sites found that the price differed, for two adults the stay was £18.50 a night. The club website differed.  The
same appeared with another one is East Sussex. Which one is correct? Appears this App was put up rather hastily. I have not had the time to check any more but I would have thought the club would have checked this App before releasing it.

    The best way to find out would be to start the booking process and see what the computer came up with.

    The way they keep harping on about this App in the latest magazine you would be given the impression that it is the greatest thing since sliced bread. I have to say the more I have used it, the less impressed I am. ( I am not a great fan of sliced bread
    either)

    Even Apple with all their billions could not get the latest release of iOS right, so I would hope you would cut the CC a little slack. It is a new app and there are bound to be teething problems. I can't think of any app I have ever used that has not had some.

    Curiously I am amongst the few that have had no problems with the latest IOS downloads both on the iPad and iPhone. Cannot say the same for the CC App. Have you tried it?

    Yes, I have tried the app and in general I like it. Unlike the web site search and book it can be used off line, and the ability to ring the site direct from the app is a very useful feature. There are a few issues I have come
    across, like if you want to list CL's with toilets you have to do two searches. One for just WC and one for where they also have showers. Also if a site is full, you cannot search a radius about that site for another, you have to put in a place name, sometimes
    quiet a distance away. There will of course be more, but I am sure these will be sorted in time.
