I think we're being squeezed off sites , especially if we don't want ehu.

I was at a C&CC site I've been to for years a few weeks ago , I ended up on a slope overlooking motorhomes and caravans where it was once a tent and motorhome site with no electrics .

Sites make more money from other units , it's sad but I feel we're being forced out . There are a few proper camp sites around , but I think they are getting harder to find .

I agree we also feel tents are being squeezed out 😔

Beadnell bay campsite used to be like that Fiona, so peaceful. Sadly not now. They put in even more hardstanding over the winter. There will be no grass pitches left at this rate.

That's the site I was at ! The non ehu tent pitches are on a slope now . There's all the caravans and motorhomes with levelling chocks on the flat grass and there's me and the dogs trying to sleep and cook on the north face of the Eiger


I'm booking an ehu pitch next time , and not using electric , so I can get a sleep without sliding off my mat

We can swing both ways with T25 multivan and tent combi

For years they have been caravan only sites.
