I usually email and 9 times out of 10 I get a quick response. I print a copy of the email confirmation to take with me but I often ring as well to confirm my booking especially if I'm travelling a long way to a site.
Depends - when I was looking for a site back in May, I must have emailed 10 or so and got 5 or 6 replies. But then when I booked later in the season, all the ones I emailed replied.
Don't forget to leave a review of the campsites you have visited this year or last!
I usually e-mail if its short notice and not a school holiday. For our main holiday, site belongs to the CC, I have to phone the site direct as we have a tent pitch which isn't on the CC website.
We have been very successful with e-mailing sites for both info and booking.
If we are booking at short notice, which these days is a rare occurrence then we phone as well to make sure.
Not as yet had a site that didnt reply, which is as I expect. If the site publishes an e-mail address as a method of contact then they should have the courtesy to reply just the same as if you phoned or actually wrote to them. In the event that a site didn't reply to an email then we wouldn't use them. After all if they do respect you enough to reply to a query what sort of service will you get when you are on their site camping?
------------- We only go camping to see what we have forgotten and what we need to get for next time. If only we could remember where we put the list..................
