Are you on a grass pitch ? they can be troublesome in wet weather, especially if you have to go up an incline to get out.
Thanks, but it’s pretty firm and flat. In fact, I just moved around for a different orientation. Touring the campsite!

Not a CL, but …
There’s me and one tent on this lovely Anglesey campsite. Nipped up the local peak (500ft) for a 3 mile circular walk on arrival. Then 9 miles on the costal path.
Drawbacks: No showers. No black disposal. Narrow through road (tarmac). Otherwise, pretty idyllic. (My first ever MH outing) £19pn.
Caerau Campsite. 53.396680,-4.527746. Found on Pitchup.
no black waste !

What do you get for your £19? Toilets? Electric? Water?

Sounds about normal price for UK but is annoying when you can get similar in france, Spain, Germany for nothing or a few euros.

We have just booked into a CL near Chesterfield for July, £25.00 per night with all facilities £5.00 up per night from last year but we are happy with that it's a lovely working farm with some good long walks straight off site(y)

In the past two years it has gone up from £18.00 to £25.00 we like because it is near to family and we will probably spend another 100 quid in the pub on the Saturday night:giggle:
Sorry if you misunderstood my post. I wasn't referring to your choice to pay it, that's nothing to do with me, and I have no right to comment on it.

I was merely referring to the price that CL/CS's are commanding.

Cheers

£25 per night is a rip-off. (n)

Just had a random search thru THS listings, and yes some are still around the £10 mark.....
However there is a large number of them where circa £20 is the norm...
So even THS's are on the increase even for the basic "no facility" ones.

Like I said before this CL has all facilities EHU, shower, cassette waste disposal. I would not be happy to pay that for just a field, although we never use the showers on any site.

Better not mention that we stayed at a CL that had all the facilities usually associated with campsites, hard standing, and a shop selling their own produce.... and £25........ Wouldn't want to rile the Funsters....

Agree Ginam.
we found one last week that’s only 40 miles away. Fantastic views and all as you say. The electric is metered which we view as s good thing though. £20 plus electric at £0.35 a unit.
Owner farms is one of the loveliest people.
Site has donkeys, sheep and horses also.

Pure bliss and well worth it 👍👍

We're currently on a ths near Newquay-Porth Beach Holiday site, £20 per night, but across the road from a fantastic beach, and full site facilities, with electric, really can't complain at that price, the standard rate is £52 pn!

Now "from" £30 !
Wouldn't stay there again. It was nice. I found it a bit sterile. No personal contact with the owner at all. Everything done by email and a code to open the barrier and access the shower/loo.
