Hi Dave and Helen as I've said before we used to stay at seacraft every summer but got priced out of it last year would of cost us £83 per night in August full service so thanks to your vlog on deers glade we now go there but that's gone up to £60 a night now

Hi Dave and Helen, It's great to see you enjoying yet another autumn stay. Definitely go for the refashion, I did it in the old van when we bought it, in the way of painting right the way through, and about a year before we changed van's, we got new curtains made from scratch, and just brought them into the new van's lounge area, we only need the tiebacks making now, might even get the bedroom area some new curtains made this winter, oh you scared me again with the picture of Helen at the end, all the best, and safe travels, Neil PS if I remember when I get home from winter pack up trip to the van, I'll email you pictures of the lounge curtains

How much!!!!!!!!!!..😮😮😮....Personally I think the whole "club" idea is totally out of date these days....hence the fall in memberships. Independants all the way !!!!!.. Never paid more than £35 per night including electric & even through the summer. Some cracking sites out there, (many who have actually ditched the clubs themselves)

Hi Russty, we agree and that's why we visit so many private/Indie sites, better value we think and often with a lot of cute personal touches. We keep paying our membership fees for both clubs but not convinced we are getting value for money anymore. Thanks for watching. Helen & Dave

Hi Dave & Helen, We paid £43.80 FS June 2023. A poplar site, especially coastal will always attract holidaymakers regardless of price. Your price is a bit steep for end of October. At least site didn’t look cluttered with the grass pitches out of use. Great touring site though and we love the location 👍. Hope you enjoyed your ghost 👻 walk. Best wishes to you both, Rob & Gail 😀

I think market forces will dictate what people will pay , rules of commerce I guess. It seems a little steep , but the overall service offer did look pretty good from your VLOG . We get our membership fees back in discounts we receive from stores like Cotswolds Outdoors and use CL’s , rallies as well as the European Travel Services so we still still club membership is worthwhile . We fancy going there after watching this video . Hope you’re both well. Best wishes H and M Ps we loved the black and white video at the end 😂

Hello H&M, hope you're both well. We think so too, supply & demand and all that and the site remains busy almost all of the year so that says something. We thought it a bit pricey but we've paid a lot more to stay on sites (as you know) as long as you're enjoying it and happy to pay, then that's good. I'm sure we will keep our memberships going but we can count on one hand the number of club sites and CCC sites we have stayed at this year. Glad you liked our fright night feature ha ha. Take care, Helen & Dave

Great video Dave. Not sure that the site is worth that though. Although we did enjoy our lunch in the club house. We were at Kelling with Connie and Will and we paid just over £35 a night. Fully serviced, hard standing and hedging all around. Think it’s our favourite in North Norfolk. Must catch up soon xxx

Hi Lesley, we're off to Clippesby tomorrow and yes we need to catch up when we can. We think it's over priced and remember the club house/restaurant is open to anyone who wants to walk in off the street so not really a member benefit. We are loving the excellent choice of private sites available atm. Kelling is lovely and £35 is excellent value considering what's on offer on that site. See you soon, Helen & Dave

Hi Helen and Dave, Have always thought Seacroft is overpriced, yes you do get a pool and the clubhouse if thats your thing. But if not you're paying for things you don't use. So for October expensive 😮. Also in summer months it always looks packed in when grass pitches in use. Definitely prefer Incleboro and use the bus into town. Sorry to seem like a grinch 😊. So long has you enjoyed it. Take care and travel safe 🙏. Paul and Joanne 👍 ❤. PS think the makeover idea is great. Dave the interior designer 👌

Thanks for video, we are motorhomers so always looking for close to towns. We prefer sheringham to Cromer. This site is lacking though ….. No privacy between pitches, no hedging, dated toilets and showers, no nice planting, no fishing lakes to walk around, horrible metal fencing …and that price! Can’t put out a poled enclosure for the dogs or draught skirt, and not adults only, not for us …. Bah humbug!

Completely agree with you. This sites proximity to Cromer is its main benefit we think. The club is a bonus but it's open to the public so not really a member benefit.

So we’ve been to 2 sites that you’ve reviewed, Laburnam and Poppy fields which were really good but doubt we’ll go to this one. £48 + in autumn is pretty poor. We had a fully serviced pitch right on a Loch with a boat ramp in front of us for £40 a night which we thought was as much as we wanted to pay( boat ramp won it )We are off to fully serviced cl pitch in Ingoldisthorpe nxt week for £23 a night, up against Sandringham CAMC £35 a mile away. The club sites are becoming too expensive now especially when you only can count a weekend as being mainly just the Saturday because of the check in / out times. Great vid as usual though. #icegate 🤣👍

No way would we pay that! With the exception of a couple of CAMC sites we are only members for the CLs. Whilst a serviced pitch is great we are happy as long as we have electricity. We use our own facilities so don't need to pay to use showers. We also like small quiet sites and most of the CAMC sites are just like mini housing estates. That said you do know what you get with CAMC and each to their own, we all like something different. Personally though we think they charge too much. Maybe we're just tight northerners!😂

You are paying for the added on site services, cafe/bar/restaurant (pool though not open) that C&MC site extremely rarely provide at all other than odd one or two plus paying more again having a serviced pitch so it is higher though for late October that is enough. I wouldn’t pay it for nearly November 😉

Think it’s a bit too much albeit facilities provided but still got to consider the time of year, so wouldn’t pay that. Having been looking at KZbin and watching some touring abroad (granted it’s Motorhomers) it seems costs on the continent are significantly cheaper, even free, with electric provided at some places. Proper campsites (to suit caravans) also cheaper so if you feel up for it seems a tour around Europe may be more suitable for those who’d like to do that. Savings on sites could pay for channel crossing by the looks of it…..??

I'm going to sound like a proper tight old git. HOWMUCH? When I was a lad camping and caravanning was a reasonably economic way to get out and about. I'm sure you could get a hotel for less and not have to crap in a bucket to carry it away yourself. Unless they are just trying to keep the peasants out and cater just for the wealthy. I must thank you for reminding me why I left that organisation, I was considering re-joining. Not now. There is a simple business method that too many don't follow anymore, "cut your profit margin and it increases your turnover resulting in a better income".
