I went to book Baltic warf 11hrs after opening time as I'd been at work all day to find it is fully booked for all of the 365 days of 2018. Madness! Are other sites this bad?

    There are pitches left. The grass are shown as full. I suspect most weekends are booked however

    I do not know where you are looking but I have just checked and it seems there is space every month,on all the hard standing pitches,you do need to scroll down from grass pitches

    Read the other threads and you'll get an idea.

    It proves that Baltic Wharf is a gem in the crown of CAMC.

    But..... are you sure it’s booked up solid?

    As others have said scroll down through the pitch types. I don't know why the club have left grass pitches on there as they don't exist. Vacancies in January as a starter. The big  question is will the site continue to be open at all.?

    AS there is no option to choose grass or HS I suspect it is a total error surprisingly!!!

    There is one grass pitch, which the wardens seem to let as and when it is suitable to do so. It does not really need to show on the availability though.

    It does not even show on the site plan, but is behind the wardens accommodation. When we have seen folk there it has been with smallish MH's.

    Still full weeks left in October, if it is still open of course.

    Possibly a small piece of grass allocated for the wardens use Steve? There is nothing mentioned on the site details at all which states all pitches are hard standing.

    I think it is for the relief warden ,but is let as and when ,we went on it some years ago,as some friends were working the site and we were passing through with one of the grandchildren on the way to Hillhead ,  the area in the middle also used to be grass

    Certainly when we were there it was not being used by a relief warden. Although that could be its primary purpose and explain why it is not shown on the site plan.
