Trying to book a stopover at Thirsk on our way back from our ferry, but getting nowhere.

I know it is not open at the moment, but I should be able to book it on line anyway.  Noticed at the weekend that availability on a few other sites was also not able to be viewed.

Is there a problem somewhere, as I can see nothing to inform members of a problem.

    Depends on what dates you require I think K. I just tried it for a date in April and it worked fine. Doesn't reopen until after 16th March?

    Yes Kj, there seems to be a problem, don't know how many sites are affected but we can't book Inceboro Fields. No explanation, I think we'll have to go elsewhere. I see Thirsk has the same message.

    If you look on one of the site detail pages mentioned and then click on make a booking the message comes up as a follow on.

    That's strange, it isn't showing a message for me. I just put in a date to arrive, date to leave and it confirms they are available and I move onto next stage of booking? Working as it should be for me.

     

    Edit: just tried incleboro fields, and if you use the "flexible" option, it is coming up faulty. Put in the exact dates you require in the arrive/depart  boxes and it seems to work fine. Providing of course the site is open!

    It was the same at the weekend for Stamford.  Trying to book for early October.

    I've just tried Stamford K, I put in arrive 10/10/18, depart 11/10/18 and it worked fine. Are you leaving your date options flexible?

    I've had a go with your idea TDA and could get the availability pages, however using the other route it says "come back later." I wonder if the club know there is a fault? undecided

    I just wanted to check what dates were available in general, so did not enter any dates as at the time we had not fixed dates.

    Now we have a plan I will need to try again.

    The "check availability and book" link does not work.

    Glad you got sorted K, it pays to try different routes into things on this website! 

    Thanks Rowena.
