    I don't know if they are this year, but when we were there a few years ago in September, quite a few of the service pitches were seasonal. Given the discount on those pitches it would tend to suggest they were struggling to sell them all at that time.

    yes they were but haven't been seasonal for a while now. As I posted somewhere, they are very popular and one midweek day over Easter, they had a higher occupancy rate than non SP

    well, they've installed a 'empty your cassette and return it gleaming inside and out' machine here (SF) and it's £2 a pop.....

    " Now as to wether this is worth £3.90 extra per night, that's for the individual to decide"......

    Steve, the issue for me (and other MHers, no doubt) is that you get charged the same for the days (many of them) when you don't use the service....with the size tanks in your Hymer I'm sure you wouldn't be needing to turn the tap on very often....despite being charged for it being there.

    perhaps some think it's 'good value' to put 10/20 ltrs in the van (every day just to top up) at £3.90 than it is to put 100 odd in once for nothing?

    yet on the full HS sites that I've been on (I can count 5 at least) MH usage of SP is high?

    "Need" and "Wish" are totally different though! So I'm not so sure. On our recent visits to Cirencester Park, low season when only the HS pitches are available, I'd say there have been roughly equal numbers of vans and MHs on the service pitches. Folk may be choosing to use a SP for all sorts of reasons; I don't think you (one) can assume that because you (one) would do without (and so would we!) others would or should do the same.

    Although you've recently rejoined and stayed on (at least) 2 sites, DD?

    I used "one" simply to indicate that I was making a general statement and not referring to "you" specifically. It's a grammatical nicety that even a former maths teacher is aware of! smile

    Most sites we have used have only a small number of serviced pitches and these always seem to be well used. Possibly someone took a leap in the dark as to just how far this could be taken and went rather too far.

    Something to play a game on, something to camp on, to throw a ball (US), musical notes, another word for tar,  to bid for something 😁

    Not at all. It was indicating the post wasn’t as harmless etc as David suggested. The proof is on the page as clear as day. So what is your pointless point?
