Do the Camping and Caravanning club overdo the application of their rules ?
Last year we stayed on a C&C Club site on Skye, the warden insisted he watched and instructed every turn of my steering wheel to make sure my "side pods" did not overhang the grass.
He then watched some campers erect their tents opposite where we were. When they were up, the warden then asked them to take it down and move it a foot further away from the neighbouring tent oh:
We are now on a C&CClub site in Derbyshire and when booking by phone was asked the length, 8.5 m , at which time I was asked to wait while they checked if their was a plot on "the grid" big enough. Yes, but have you got slideouts, yes, how wide are you with them out, 2.7 m think that will be ok. So we booked.
This is a large very spacious site where almost every pitch would accept a 10m unit
On arrival the wardens were excellent, friendly etc :thumb: but still assisted in getting us pitched and perfectly placed.
I have driven and pitched this tiddly RV throughout the UK and also in Europe and ONLY the C&CClub find it necessary to give me this degree of assistance in pitching, the rest normally say " find a pitch and let us know"
BTW others in Eurovans also received similar attentions
Is this over friendly by the "friendly club" ??
