Although I can't remember the name of the site at present. I did find a site which charges £4 for C&CC members and £5 for non members although they are willing to recharge mobiles and satnavs if necessary.

They don't have showers or toilets yet either.

For a field with a tap and disposal point   £1 - £5   all  inclusive 

Site with limited facilities,  toilet, showers £10 +  this is where they start charging for extras

Site with all the whistles and bobs  they charge whatever they think you are willing to pay. 

The choice is yours

CLs and CSs with ehu, loos and showers are still under £10 in my experience.

It really depends on the type of site but I have been shocke this year to see some all singing and dancing sites charging in the region of £50 per night!!! The site looks lovely I have to admit but at that price it is out of our reach unless its our ONLY holiday/camping trip of the year. Obviously some people are only too pleased to pay that but for me I would rather pay less and get away a bit more than once!!

I dont like to pay more than £25 per night in August and for that I expect immaculate facilities, decent sized pitches etc but not neccessarily the club house and all that.

When we used to go to a "posh" site in the summer with the kids I used to compare the site fees with their static charge to see if we were gettting a good deal. Now without the kids I prefer CLs and CSs for £5 to £10 often with electric,

£15 a night, I'd be happy to pay that.

I'm going to refuse to pay more than £20 a night now unless its an exceptional site and then I'd only go up to £25 absolute tops but it have to be something very special. I would say less but we have to go away during the school holidays now and I know the prices are a little OTT then. If it was out of school holidays then I wouldn't pay more than £18 absolute tops.

That's for a non electric pitch, 2 adults, 2 children, one car, reasonable sized pitch.

I'd expect nice toilets and showers. No entertainment or anything like that as we prefer quiet campsites.

As a mainly solo lightweight camper I pay anything from £3.00 to £7.00 depending on a number of factors.
However, I'd pay £10.00 per night something a bit special.

Nice clean campsite, decent loos and showers, wee swing park for the kids but nothing else by way of facilities? (My sort of campsite, really....) About £15 per night for a medium sized tent, two adults, two kids, one car. MIght go to £20 max on a holiday weekend if it was the only site in an area I wanted to visit.

There are some campsites though I think I should have been paid to visit....

The one i usually go to in Chichester is a nice site, its clean, very big, has good loos and showers, has park for kids, has swimming pool and club house if needed and shop onsite. They charge £21 per night, which is expensive but as its only occasionally  and a nice site, we dont mind!

For two of us, tent and car, I would start to come over all Yorkshire if anyone expected me to pay more than about £12, frankly!

I suppose it all depends on what sort of facilities you want how much you are willing to pay. We like small sites, often CS's, with electric hookup, a loo and shower if its for more than a weekend, a park for the kids is a plus, but not necessary they can entertain themselves.

For that in the right location we'd pay up to £15, if it was a bigger park with better facilities for week long breaks up to £20. There have been exceptions, but its rare.

Edited to say: Whoops just re read the original post, asking about tents without EHU. Sorry
