It is any size of tent which can be pitched on the same pitch you are allocated on site with your motorhome.
Not ANY size tent..

The definition of a pup tent is a very small 2-man tent (back pack type). Both occupants must be under the age of 16 years old. The ‘pup tent' is only valid if a tent/camper or caravan has been checked in and paid for in full. Only 1 pup tent allowed per booking.

Shame only 2 children to the pup tent...hoping we could squeeze all 4 of them in there!
Seriously though thanks for your advice. Looking at insurance at the moment and seems even if you don't arrange your insurance through the clubs directly, insurers will offer you a discount just for being a member. Just getting quotes online at the moment as late now, but might phone round a few 2morrow and see if it matters which club you're a member of or whether it's just a standard club discount. Might recoup the membership fee in savings off insurance alone which would be cool! We have a fleet insurance policy for our cars but when we asked to have the M/H added they said it'd be £568 which we thought a bit especially as they were also insisting on an immobiliser which the van currently doesn't have, so told them to sling it and am gathering a few quotes now (best so far £220! the benefits of shopping around!)
Anyway currently thinking the CC is probably our best bet as seems to have more sites in Scotland than the others (although can't search them at the moment as the website is being worked on for when bookings open in a couple of days - typical I should choose just now to want to look!!), and feel that as newbies prob should join and have the backing of a club until we get a bit more confident!, and that insurance discount can't be sniffed at! Also whilst like the idea of MHS points on offer from CCC, as you suggested above, you can service your M/H and get a pitch on a 5 van site if you want, all for same or less. Do you think they'd get p*d off if you just breezed through, using the services but not staying.....wouldn't want to cause offence even if had paid for a pitch!
Night all,
Tats
