I dislike the CC club of allowing people to book without leaving a deposit as it results in people just booking everywhere just in case they decide to go which is really an abuse.  Personally I would like clubs to keep some pitches for book on the day or the week in peak season times.  The point of camping for me is to go last minute not to be totally planned.  I do appreciate campsites have to make a profit and having a booking ensures they get payment but perhaps they could charge a little less for people that book in advance and in peak season they would not have problems letting the pitch and it would get back to the spirit of camping again.

What do other people think??

I think they meant they were holding a pitch at their discretion. Sometimes it is necessary in case of an unusable pitch i.e. flooding etc. Thats why I stated if you turn up without booking sometimes you can get on--but don't tell anyone.
