How do I check if my booking includes a car?

We’ve a booking coming up for our MH on the Pembrey site. It was some time ago when I made the booking & I want to double check that I’d included a car as an extra. I can’t seem to find this on the booking information unless I’m missing something?

    As far as I am aware if you are taking a car with a MH either towed or separately there is no need to declare it. If you haven’t an awning there is plenty of room to park it on either standard or non awning, as there would be if towing a caravan. We have taken our Yaris separately a few times in the past and will be shortly when we go away the granddaughter. The extras are for additional cars on the pitch,  if permitted (which they are not at most sites). I believe they are charged  £2 a night, although can be parked in the car park for nothing.

    A motorhome towing a car is considered the same as a car towinging a caravan on most sites. If it is not I don't go there even when solo.

    Thanks it’s our first time taking a car so we weren’t sure.

    Why don't you just ring the club to confirm and then you will know for sure.

    It’s been confirmed on here by a current site warden that the situation is exactly as Steve and PD posted. That is, a car with a MH is no different to a car with a caravan and doesn’t need to be booked. Only a second car is an ‘extra’.

    Under the new system TW there is a drop down box when booking that you can populate or not if you have a car with your motorhome. But as has been mentioned there is/ won't be a charge.

    The box says what are you towing and I don’t even remember it being there when we booked for this August just after the new system started. We won’t be towing just following, as we have done several times under the old system.
