Far from noticing any reductions, we have just lost over £70 in cancelled campsite bookings due to this weather, including a £25 deposit with C&CC where we have been loyal members for over 20 years.

I'm afraid that any thoughts of getting any bargains from campsites will be nothing more than a Wet Dream!

Having said that, we are just back from a 6 night trip to Dumfries and yes, it was wet every day, but it didn't stop us fom enjoying ourselves and like you said, the sound of rain on canvas, is a great way of drifting off to sleep.

The FC and the awning is now laid out and drying off and come the next weather improvement, we will be off again, looking for a drier campsite.

unfortunately the electric, gas, oil, fuel providers, council, tax man, etc are not offering discounts to site owners because of the weather. Unbelievable as it may sound if we can 'turn off' a part of the site we would be better off financially, so the theory of some money is better than none for us would just not be true, it costs quite a bit of money to run the pitch = if it's not in use then it is simply standard charges to pay - i send hubby 'out to work' to cover that!!!
