Rip-off

Unless your travel plans are written in stone they'll rip you off with cancellation fees. Join the Caravan Club instead. Better sites and better customer service!

Friendly throughout!

Staff at every site encountered welcomed us like old friends, the “ Friendly Club “ motto exists out there, in practice, even through working tirelessly at keeping their respective sites in pristine condition.

Unhelpful

Unfortunately, as on previous occasions we have found our dealings with the camping and caravaning club less than helpful. We were given their name as a reference, for seasonal campsite wardens, but the company have a policy of disclosing nothing about their employees that could be useful for a future employer.

The minimum 3 night stay is too much outside the high season half term etc.
It has forced us up to Scotland and to the other club sites
Can't put a date because I don't have 3 nights available - I'll have to go elsewhere or stay home
October to March could be 2 nights min (perhaps apart from half term and Christmas New Year
Loads of folk I have met agree and have left the club; I expect I will too next time if there's no change

Thank you for sharing your feedback. We understand how minimum stay requirements can make it difficult to fit a break around your availability, particularly during the quieter months. We appreciate your suggestion of offering two-night stays outside peak periods and will share your comments with the relevant team. Thank you for your continued support of the Club.

I dont live in UK so rarely use the sites. The times I have used them they are poor value compared with Continental sites and not being able to check in early is a real pain when touring. Im probably not going to renew as membership for me is poor value for me.

Love this site and return year after year.
Excellent location and can wander into Fortrose for a friendly beer, and food shopping.
Staff have been friendly and helpful every time I visit.
Always manage to see dolphins and seals at Chanonry Point
Tracks to pitches could definitely do with some maintenance as they are now a bit pot holey.

I'm starting to be disappointed with the value for money of Camping and Caravan sites. Over the last couple of years I've checked Camping and Caravan sites and sites that show on Google maps.
I have finished finding sites which have been better in terms of facilities and cheaper than the Camping and Caravan members sites.

Hi Christopher,

Thank you for your review - and sorry to hear you've been disappointed with the pricing at our sites. Our members always receive better pitch night rates, alongside a range of other great benefits and discounts such as discounted RAC breakdown insurance and at leading outdoor retailers. Keep an eye on our website for the latest member promotions as this can help you to find the best deals throughout the year.

Lovely greeting on arrival

Lovely greeting on arrival, availability of pitches explained in detail then we were escorted to our choice and asked if it was ok or did we want to change - excellent service. Brilliant site in all respects, the shower/toilet block is warm & clean. All the site wardens were friendly and most helpful.
Perfect area for exploring, good dog walks and bus stop within a few minutes walk, bus into Keswick takes approximately 5 minutes. Bus going in the other direction to Cockermouth and Workington.
Highly recommended.
