I am guessing maybe one is club sites and the other is commercial sites, but don't which way round it is. I could be wrong of course.

This question comes up once in a while. Basically the green tents are for sites that have entered their full details, red are for sites that only have the basic information.

Some people are just all show. I don’t mind that if the show is worth watching but ….

i thought it was this but the other way round?? ie red for featured sites which menas they enter full details.

Whatever way it is it does mean one colour has entered full details while the other hasn't

Sorry, looks like Chinster's right, Shelli - see here.

I'd have been unsure without checking, though!

Thanks Bob, no need to be sorry.

I knew one meant full details and one didn't, but wouldn't have bet which way round it was!!!

I thought it might be something like that as I noticed that the red tents didnt have little photos like the green ones!
thankyou!
