Saving a pitch as you are booking in
Comments

On Club sites, I think the wardens are aware of the "pitch reservers".
We do not use Club sites much these days, but when we did, on many sites, wardens were taking measures to ensure that arrivals were only allowed to select a pitch after booking in. Particularly at earliest arrival time.
At Chatsworth you are required to remain in your car or MH until you get to reception and can book in, at LMP, Chirk, booking in is strictly in order of arrival as is pitch selection. No doubt many other sites are similar.
The new system where you can book a pitch surface may well alleviate the problem.

I’m baffled by the fact there is a queue at opening time….
I certainly don’t time my arrival to try and be first in a queue of like minded first in the gate at 13.00 queuers.
Are there points to be had being first in the gate at 13.00, and last out the gate at 11.00?

but sometimes if we are to believe this forum treated very differentlyre.
That sounds as if you don't believe what is posted by that? I'm not sure who this 'we' is but it must include you by definition of the word which is puzzling David as you post recently that you always think that most posters are honest?
Apart from that why you keep bringing in comparisons with abroad sites in the UK section and threads at every possible opportunity and no matter how tenuous in puzzling at best and
ad nauseam at worst. Especially as you state you haven't used club sites very much in the past (it was a few days a year other than last year) and say you won't be using them in the future?As to being asked to leave if arriving early it is not ridiculous to my view and will be happening.

Club cannot be seen to show any preferential treatment for individual Members, beyond looking after any special requirements. It just has too many Members to do that. Comparing a multi Site business with a single Site isn’t a valid comparisons. We have had pitches saved, early get ons, late leaving on dozens of little family run sites and CLs down the years.

And when the wardens are the same, the head ones usually stay for a few years, they do greet us as 'friends' especially on on frequent flyer sites that we use a number of times in any one year. It happened this year on our first visit to TB this April, meeting one walking around the site she straight away asked us which mountains we would be doing this time.
