One of the reasons we returned to caravan ownership was due to the shoddy standards of some suposedly Luxury statics. We came across everything from cheap back breaking mattresses, to the remains of someones takeaway stuffed into a draw in the bedroom. Even when we paid extra for that years model, there were instances of previous occupants leaving the place trashed and stained on carpets and uphostry.
Yes, there were a handful of privately owned caravans only let to friends and family by word of mouth, that were fairly decent, but even these were never as comfortable as owning your own caravan with your own personal choice of bedding and furnishings, kitchen equipment and comfy bed ect.
I agree regards the high prices of some sites though, and for various reasons l very much doubt that l will be using any of the CCs main sites for next season, not just due to their high prices, but also due to meeting a couple of 'Jobsworth' wardens this year, being ticked off for booking a with awning pitch when we booked early in the season, only to change our caravan the week before departure and not have time to sort one out for the new van, so be awningless on arival, then the warden who refused to let us book in and insisted we did a tight turnaround at reception and leave the site for being a whole ten mins early!
For next season we plan to be away for longer, but maybe only out about 4or 5 times, and one will be to a small comercial site, 3 will be to CLs that we know and love, and the other will possibly be to an event which is managed by a racecourse.
We plan to stay caravanning as long as our health and circumstances will allow.
