Steve H Posted November 1, 2020 Share Posted November 1, 2020 My gut feeling is that you should approach a C&MC CL site in a location you would you be happy with. They're businesses, and they need the money - and you need a place to stay. Speak to them on the phone and look to do a deal for long-term parking.

Derek Uzzell Posted November 2, 2020 Share Posted November 2, 2020 Section 4 of the following link https://www.gov.uk/guidance/new-national-restrictions-from-5-november refers to businesses and venues that need to close in England from November 5. Campsites are not specifically mentioned, but it seems likely that, if the facilities mentioned below - indoor and outdoor leisure facilities such as bowling alleys, leisure centres and gyms, sports facilities including swimming pools, golf courses and driving ranges, dance studios, stables and riding centres, soft play facilities, climbing walls and climbing centres, archery and shooting ranges, water and theme parks, must close, campsites may also need to shut down (or at least not accept new arrivals). Certainly the advice on this website is unequivocal regarding campsites in England https://campfiremag.co.uk/can-we-go-camping/ This website https://www.pitchup.com/covid-camping/ has not yet caught up with the in-England 5 November lockdown changes, but suggests that (currently) campsites are Wales - Closed 2 October to 9 November Scotland - Open Northern Ireland - Closed 5 - 31 October (so might have reopened now) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Barryd999 Posted November 2, 2020 Share Posted November 2, 2020 See if this link works. https://www.ukcampsite.co.uk/sites/results3.asp?search=west%20sussex&by=county There are a fair few CS and CL sites down the bottom of the list. This I reckon would be your best bet. Find an out of the way farm and do a deal. Best get cracking though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Derek Uzzell Posted November 3, 2020 Share Posted November 3, 2020 Both of the major UK campsite clubs’ websites now carry warnings about closure of sites during the UK lockdown period and advise on the position in Wales, Scotland an Northern Ireland. https://www.caravanclub.co.uk/uk-holidays/reopening-our-campsites/ https://www.campingandcaravanningclub.co.uk/helpandadvice/travelplanning/coronavirus/ Presumably CL and CS will be similarly affected, though (as you’ve suggested) an ‘unofficial’ arrangement might be achievable.

Moose Posted November 3, 2020 Share Posted November 3, 2020 Gooday Trevor. Can recommend Broadhembury Site just outside Ashford in Kent. Maybe you can negotiate a rate for the month. Adult site and Family site. Reception (01233 620859 or holidaypark@broadhembury.co.uk). David. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flyboyprowler Posted November 5, 2020 Share Posted November 5, 2020 Hi Trevor, If its not too late, you could try https://www.yell.com/biz/willowtree-storage-centre-horsham-4906678/ We store our van there when we are in the UK, but it is a storage centre and not a camp site. Best of luck. Ainsley Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Derek Uzzell Posted November 9, 2020 Share Posted November 9, 2020 This gov.uk webpage was last updated on 6 November 2020 https://www.gov.uk/guidance/new-national-restrictions-from-5-november#businesses-and-venues Campsites are referred to in Section 4 4. Businesses and venues Businesses and venues which must close To reduce social contact, the regulations require some businesses to close and impose restrictions on how some businesses provide goods and services. These include: - Accommodation such as hotels, hostels, guest houses and CAMPSITES. Except for specific circumstances, such as where these act as someone’s main residence, where the person cannot return home, for homeless people, or where it is essential to stay there for work purposes The COVID-19 rules for Wales are explained on the following webpage (last updated on 6 November 2020) https://gov.wales/coronavirus-regulations-guidance#section-46351 Can I take my caravan/motorhome to stay in a caravan park? Yes – caravan parks are able to open to Welsh residents. Parks are able to open their toilet, shower, pot wash and laundry areas for caravanners and campers, subject to measures being in place to ensure physical distancing and appropriate cleaning. Can I go camping? Yes – campsites are able to open to Welsh residents. The toilet/shower blocks, pot wash and laundry areas for campers will also be open subject to measures being in place to ensure physical distancing and appropriate cleaning (on GOV.UK). Who can I stay with in holiday accommodation such as hotels, tents, caravans or self-catering accommodation? You will only be able to share holiday accommodation with the people you live with. This helps to reduce the risk of coronavirus being transmitted significantly, as sleeping in close proximity to other people carries a high risk of transmission due to the length of time you spend near each other. Trevor last posted on this thread on 2 November. It’s quite likely that, by now, he has found somewhere to stay during lock-down, so it would be useful if he could confirm whether or not he needs further suggestions.
