Love reading that comment in the reviews people leave about the park on various websites. To be fair, we do learn alot from reading them but the latest one states “ If I were the owners I would also offer vacant electrical pitches whether for one or two nights, not just the minimum three” presumably referring to the three night minimum stay we have over the Bank Holidays. However, we have been fully booked for all three nights of all Bank Holidays since we implemented the restrictions into our terms and conditions so I’m not really sure that we will be putting this reviewer’s ideas into practise.
We do have some guests that will book, and pay, for all three nights yet only stay for 2 - so as the owner of the park we will be keeping our 3 night minimum booking policy for Bank Holidays. Oooooh and just a little reminder we’ve only got one pitch available for the Summer Bank Holiday in 2010 and have already taken bookings for Spring Bank Holiday in 2011.
The only other minimum stay restriction we have for tents with electric is for the Castle Howard Proms weekend – its 2 nights then and we have already filled those 2 nights. We don’t have restrictions on tents using electric hook-ups at any other times.
I think that's a fair comment. After all it is a business and you can't please everyone all of the time as they say!
ReplyDeleteMy only suggestion, and I'm sure it's something already considered is another toilet/washing facility up near the tent field. Even just a couple of port-a-loo's for the middle of the night would do.
The rest was perfect!
It is something that is continually considered. The tents have actually been in that field for the last ten years - all the time we have had the park yet, the distance between the tents and the toilets has only become an issue in the last couple of years - bizarre
ReplyDeleteMaybe it is the cat that sits in the shadows at the side of the road and scares the life out of you (there and back I hasten to add!)
ReplyDeleteIt is strange though..
