21 day rule
Comments

Generally, across the country, the planning / site licence will stipulate 28 days. I still suspect that CC Ltd has yet again made up its own "rule", as they tend to do in so many things.
Probably they have one site where the licence is for 21 days, and rather than confuse the stupid membership, for that is how they seem to think of us, they have gone to for the lowest common denominator.
... well as we rarely stay anywhere for more than 5 days in the UK it won't bother me, just seems strange that they choose 21 days for their sites yet CL's have 28 days same as C&CC.

Its a TOURING Club, why on earth would you want to stay more than a few days let alone 21.

I am sure they have their reasons. I will be staying on one site for 15 nights from mid December. Simply because I can and it suites me to do so

I think that's called Personal choice. Along the lines of going into a 'Coffee Shop' & not buying Coffee. Crazy I know but there you go-there's some crazy unpredictable folk out there PD

I don't tour in December Peedee. The other 15 weeks that we are away we do indeed generally move every 5 nights. We go away over Christmas because if we were at home we would see little of each other these colder and darker evenings. I hae TV. OH watches
in the evening to pass the time. I usually join her for up to an hour just to be sociable. I don't really think that there is much on TV to interest her to be honest. When we are in the caravan and asked if she wants TV on the usual answer is no. We get out
every day except Christmas Day which we probably would not do at home. Up until around 8 years ago we would throw a party just before Christmas and I would spend about 14 hours preparing foods for a buffet spread. Had to stop doing that as my arthritis would
not let me. So we look fowards to just going walks, spending time together and chilling.0 -

Well the two times we have stopped that long, it was mother in hospital several hundred miles from where we live. However, I am sure there are a multitude of reasons.

I did stay at the Leek site for 14 nights some 10 years ago. I had been busy at work. Over 70 hours per week for a month. I just needed to relax and chill. I thought that it would be too long in one place but, on that occasion, it wasn't as I needed it I suppose, Went out most days

Personally I think 21 days strikes the right balance. The longer people stay on a site the more it restricts the ability of other members to book a pitch on that site.

We even put an awning up....but haven't done that on return visits!
When I was there this May I think that there was only one awning up.
Flying below 500 feet I hope
.Well it couldn't gain much altitude as no matter how much it flapped it was hampered by being attached to a caravan.

The longest we've ever stayed on a site was on ile de Re 2 years ago, the weather was lovely, the site too, we enjoyed going out cycling everyday or to the beaches, we had planned to go much further South but decided not to bother as we had everything we
needed right there. Such a nice way to tour having the option to extend ones stay and not having to move.0 -
I've stayed on several Campings Municipal and commercial sites (Cognac, Chinon, Saumur) which have been made available to travellers (Gens de voyage) for the entire winter off season and the site fees are paid by the local Mairie. No doubt they recover the cost from the Gov't.

How would the local authority know if a person had stayed longer than 21 days? They are so strapped for cash that they can hardly afford to have someone answer the telephone, let alone going snooping around caravan parks. As long as there is no trouble,
they simply will not bother.There is a touring site I know in God's Garden of England (Devon) where one "Tourer" has been there so long that he has laminate flooring sitting on pallets in his awning, a three piece suite, full size fridge/freezer, full size domestic cooker and a plasma
TV the size of a small cinema. It would probably take him 21 days to pack it all up!0 -
