SWMBO and I stayed a new CS recently.
The site went 'live' this year and is in a great location, handy for the NC500. The facilities are excellent and the owners have put a lot of effort and thought and money into opening their site. Money I may add they are entitled to get a return for.
On chatting to the owner, it seems that he now has to keep the gates closed during the day and switch off the individual EHUs as there have been reports of motorhomes turning up, dumping their waste (grey and black), filling up with fresh water for free and then clearing off! It also appears that someone has arrived late at night, hooked up to the EHU and then cleared off early in the morning without paying!
They only opened the site a few months ago and already word seems to have got out amongst certain motorhome owners that you can pop in for free and 'service' your MH.
Why do these people think that they can take advantage of someone's private property and business like this?
If this carries on then how long before the site has to be locked up during the day or is even closed or does he have to go to the expense of installing CCTV as well?
I hope that it was not any members of 'Fun'.
