Because of their deposit system C&CC sites often have late availability so it might be possible to just turn up or even phone on the day. There is no reason, I don't think, why you can't stay one night its just at certain times they will only accept a booking for two or more nights. No such restrictions or deposits on Caravan Club sites.

We are C&CC members but don't restrict our camping to their owned / managed / franchised sites. Indeed, the C&CC Site Handbook misses out many sites that are listed here in UKCS as site owners have to pay to be included (we were told by one). We wanted to use Club sites for over-nighting on a long trip south, only for the convenience of not needing to waste time shopping around for a decent site. But at Easter, we were firmly told there was a minimum 2 night stay. It's even longer at popular sites - I think some of the Lake District ones are more than 2 nights and not just at Bank Holidays (but I could be wrong). However, I have recently read that C&CC is reconsidering this minimum rule after a lot of folk like us made it clear that we might not rejoin if we can't use sites for the one night we need. The C&CC Certificated Sites take tents (unlike most Caravan Club Certificated Locations), and therefore tend to be more likely to have a toilet and shower, which we prefer. Some parts of the country have more of one than the other, no idea why.

Some years ago I turned up at a club site (didn't know it was a club site until I reached the gate) and was looking for a pitch for two nights. They said they only had a vacancy for one night so I had to go somewhere else.
I would imagine most campsites can accommodate someone turning up at reception just for one night. This must happen a lot when somebody books two nights and then somebody else books two nights with just one day in between.
