I thought that they advertise that they also accept non memebers on their sites.

Am I wrong?

We're members anyway! Worth the money, I think.

You don't have to be a member to use their larger sites though it will cost you a bit more as you will be charged a non-member site fee, but you do have to be a member to use their CLs. Hope that clears it up for you!

We joined the caravan and camping club when we first started in a F/C and never managed to get any discounts when we stayed at their sites.

The price you pay is the same for members and non members .Non members pay an extra pitch fee per night.For example Chertsey club site there is a £6 a night pitch fee for non members.

I with a TT have been a member of the Caravan Club, though I am no longer. I have stayed at Caravan Club CL's without being a member without a problem at all though may have paid a slightly higher fee.

My understanding is that you DO need to be a member to use CL's, but in practice I have never been asked for proof of membership.

On the contrary, I have always been asked for membership details when booking 'Club' sites.

Perhaps this has been to do with slightly reduced rates for members or some 'Club' sites being intended for members only. Not that I have ever noticed any difference with 'Members Only' sites. In my experience, Caravan Club 'Club' sites have always been 5*.

I have a f/c and joined the caravan club. I really don't know why! Their insurance quotes were dearer than  anyone elses, their ferry crossings were dearer etc etc. Their camp sites are good but you can get privately owned sites just as good and cheaper! I thought that was the whole point of my membership?! The only thing that I get for my hard earned money is a magazine all about caravans!

Whilst I am having a whinge about the Caravan Club at high season on their sites the only pitches that are available are with hard standing-designed solely for caravans! I might as well pitch on the  road-whatever happened to good old fashioned grass?!! It turns out that even caravanners do not always want these hard standings!

Apart from the magazine which I do not want I still have to find any benefit in belonging to the Club. I certainly won't be renewing my membership!

CC. Non member pay £7 more per night

CCC Non members pay £6 more per night

So if you stay at one of their sites for 5 night in a year then you have got your membership costs  back.
