Adult only sites & number of dogs
Hello all
I am a new member and was wondering if there is any way to filter for adult only sites? Or if anyone can recommend a adult only site in Cumbria I would appreciate it. Also I can not find any restrictions of how may dogs are allowed on sites. Only that dogs are allowed on all sites. I have three and some sites that are not club sites will state that 2 is max. Would hate to book only to be told that having three might be a problem.
Thanks

As far as I'm aware there are no adult only Club sites, certainly have never come across any. Although in practice, many of them seem to have very few children around, most of the time.
Also as far as I'm aware there is no stated limit on the number of dogs allowed, so your three should be fine. Just follow the normal courtesies (on leads, kept quiet and picked up after).

There are no adult only club sites, there are a number of AO CL which you can search for by using the adult only filter button. Use UK holidays>search and book>CL.
There is no current restriction on the number of dogs on a club site, and there is no cost for a dog (or cat or anything).
You can filter by the dogs welcome button on the CL search. However I would ring the CL and ask them about numbers allowed. CL can set their own prices so I'm not sure if they charge for dogs. I'm sure someone will post to clarify that.
Welcome to the club

Hi, 181. The Club directly run sites have no restrictions on the number of dogs allowed per pitch and the Club does not have any adult only sites.
There are some affiliated sites where rules and conditions might differ and, of course, the rules on CLs are decided by the site owners.
Try Tranquil Parks for some decent adult only sites.

Search for adult only on ukcampsite. Useful for lots of different types of site.

It's the name of the game.

Although I would not be interested in either Adults Only or pet Free CC sites , there may be others who would jump at the chance to use such sites.
Perhaps the CC may be considering trying an experiment on a few of their sites to test if there is indeed a demand .
Customer choice is a good selling point for any forward looking multi-million pound company.

Surely the answer is that you need to take it up on an individual site basis. If you find a site that you think will suit then surely just a simple phone call or e-mail will get you the information you need before you book. I somehow doubt that even a comprehensive review site like UKCampsites would drill down into the detail that precisely for every site. I contribute quite a lot of reviews to UKCampsites but as a non dog owner I rarely comment on the status of dogs unless they are not allowed in the first place and even that is fairly rare and mainly lakeside sites in Europe. I am sure people are happy to suggest sites that might be suitable but the detail you want may only be available direct from the site. At least you know the situation on Club sites, but of course, no adult only sites except the odd AS one.

The CCC Big Sites Book indicates adult only sites as well as those with playgrounds.

Oscar Wilde for one. 'Anyone who hates dogs and children...'

The CC is an inclusive club; it has no AO sites or dog free sites, although you may find some ASs which offer that option.
It's undoubtely a good thing that the club has this policy as it means all members are welcome at all sites. There are many alteratives out there which offer AO options (and dog free although that's clearly not relevant for the OP.
In answer to the point about the C&CC, it's club sites also have no restrictions. The "big site book" lists many private sites outside the club.
Hope that helps.

A big +1 to that.
It would be incongruous to have a 'club' that does not allow certain members because of having children and/or pets to access certain sites. yes you choose to have children (and pets) and likewise you can choose to join this club that welcomes them. If you don't like children or pets then the club isn't really for you. (ie find somewhere else)

Like I said earlier, I like the CC sites as they are, dog and child friendly. I'm happy with that
But we should all be open minded to other people's requirements.
----- There may be customers of the CC who want peace and quietness when they go away in their vans. ---The CC may want to tap into this source of income by trialing what has now become a bit of a leisure industry standard in the list of available options.
What do the CC have to lose when they go down that route, it could be a right moneyspinner. Also there would be no financial outlay except altering the site information on their website.
Good management takes every opportunity to increase company income.

As everyone knows, the CC is the provisional wing of the Kennel Club.

Can I ask what has happened to the sticky "Best Club Sites for dogs" thread? It doesnt appear to be a sticky any more in the UK Sites section?

The Caravan Club is no different to any other business.
I'm sure the provision of services is informed by such things as Market Research, past Customer booking patterns and Customer Feedback.
Decisions about adults, children, dogs etc will be made on the basis of such information.
I'm sure they also realise that families are an important present and future market, even if they have the nerve to bring a dog or two (or three!) with them.

If people are still allowed to hold a opinion on this forum, I do agree that having AO sites would be a great marketing coup for the CC.
Certainly worth a try on maybe 50% of the sites, to start with.......
Can't see any advantage in 'no dogs', sites though.
