Warren farm in Brean Sands, Burnham on Sea, Somerset

This site is offering seasonal pitches with a pod which has a toilet, shower and storage area.

They are also going to add some similar pitches for touring too.

I wonder if they will be popular and start a new trend?

They look very smart; I guess they will be popular with people who like some elbow room and privacy for their ablutions, and less emptying of caravan toilets. An interesting innovation!

this is not that uncommon on european sites, never tried it myself.

can see the appeal but more for a tent market than a unit with facilities on board already.

normally comes at quite a premium price!

I would imagine so - the article didn't mention prices!

And how much will these pitches cost I wonder?

Have stayed on a site in South of France with every pitch having your own ensuite, can't remember where exactly off hand but was not expensive.

We saw pitches like this in France a few years ago and looked on their website to see the price. It was nearly twice the price of their standard pitch! It will be interesting to see if this catches on in the UK. The thing that I found interesting about the site in France where we saw them was that whilst the site had a good mix of French, Dutch, British, Irish and German people staying, it was only British people on the very expensive ensuite pitches.

Sounds like what's provided on a travelling people's site. That's not to criticise, just to say it's not a new idea.

-------------
2024 = 20 sites / 41 nights. 2023 = 9/23. 2022 = 13/35. 2021 = 11/29. 2020 = 4/20. 2019 = 13/35. 2018 = 20/33. 2017 = 10/22. 2016 = 19/33. 2015 = 15 sites / 27 nights. Didn't count 1976 to 2014.

Just remembered it was Narbonne in the Aude Region only 19 euros per night with ACSI and its a long low season with just July\August when ACSI not accepted. Swimming Pool, restaurant etc just in case anyone is interested.

If the caravan is on hard standing surely it will be a real pig to erect teh awning due to the hard ground and bent awning pegs.
On a number of sites in South Africa this is very common except many have a lounge/kitchen area with a washing machine. The bathroom has a bath and a shower plus the other normal things.
