    So, can anyone enlighten me as to whether or not any CLs opened in February please as there was no info given about these in the month of March? Thank you.

    WN, the new CLs that Maddie posted in February ( see page 6) covered all those that were show as new in both the March & April of the club's magazine. So there was no need for a March posting. Hope this helps.

    Sorry about my previous reply as I misunderstood your post.

    Ta, Nellie. I didn't get to check our March mag and update the cls as it was disposed of into the recycling before I knew it.

    Hi CLMaddie

    May I make a suggestion for all of the new CL site's. 

    When they go "live" on the CL search facility, can you make it compulsory that the site owner has an up to date picture of the site. 

    Even when existing sites renew their membership with the Caravan and Motorhome Club, can you request photographs of their site please.

    If I search for a site and it just has your "standard" picture I will not book it.

    Thanks

    StarGazzy

    Hi StarGazzy

    Getting Photos on the CL pages is a project we have been working on for a few years now as we agree this is a big factor for many members to decide if they will stay there or not. 

    A new process was introduced to our Field Team who manage the opening of sites just a few weeks ago where they will need to have a photograph of the site before it will be advertised on our website. 

    A lot of CL members have been reluctant to do this in the past as they wanted to have vans on their sites first so they can be in the picture.

    Moving forward you should be seeing all new CL sites with at least one photograph on our website.

    With existing sites we are continuing to encourage them to provide photographs for their pages and this is an on going project with the team at HO and our CLA's who visit the sites yearly.

    Thanks

    Maddie

    Thanks for the new list Maddie, and for the closures too. Just a pity that you can't let us know why they've left the network.

    Maddie can you please explain why the list that you have posted over the last two months do not agree with those printed in the May and June editions of the club's magazine? Some do but many don't.

    Hi Nellie

    Sorry for the delay in responding to you, the magazine is always 2 months ahead, so anything closed in July would appear in the September Magazine. Some Openings or Closures may be in the following month due to a cut off date for the magazine content being earlier than month end. 

    I hope that made sense and has answered your question.

    Thanks Maddie

    Dave, I don’t know whether it’s true and I sincerely hope it’s not but my source was pretty reliable as he is a CL owner- apparently he was contacted by the club and asked to put his prices up! Now, if that’s true I am appalled. These are private businesses and the club has no business suggesting prices! I can only imagine - again, if it’s true,  the move was to protect their own prices and make them look not too bad??

    Hi Maddie. Could I make a suggestion please. Would it be possible to indicate whether these opening or closing sites are EHU or non EHU? Thanks.

    Hi Merve, it's good that the club's posting the updates on here, don't get them confused by asking for more, please, or they may withdraw the listings.wink

    Maddie

    The following site from the July listing is in Licolnshire not Norfolk

    Norfolk - Woodhall Spa - Poplar Farm

    This will be important for the owners when the new sites directory goes to print.

    Hi Merve and Dave,

    The CL sites are independent businesses and it is up to them how they choose to run their site (as long as they are within the rules of the Certification) we do not get any form of financial gain from owners.

    We do not encourage CL sites to increase their prices and would advise them to check the prices of the surrounding CLs to ensure they are not pricing themselves too high. 

    Thanks

    Maddie

    Hi harryb,

    Thank you for bringing that to my attention, that was an error on my behalf. The handbook would have the correct details for the site. I have updated the original post it was in.

    Thanks

    Maddie.
