Just because people have expressed opinions one way or the other doesn't mean they expect people to do as they do or agree with them. Whatever gets banned or introduced into the world of caravan/camp sites will always produce winners and losers.
Also, if someone says that they enjoy buying produce locally when they go camping, it does not imply that they do not do so when they are at home whether the merits of that or otherwise make any difference to other people. Therefore, when this comment was mentioned, I am not sure why. This doesn't really have any bearing on someone enjoying shopping locally when they are camping.
If everyone posted a simple "Yes or No" in reply to some of the questions and information posted on here, it would be a pretty dull forum. People are saying why they agree with something and their reasons why. I'm not sure what is wrong with that. Some people have voiced their opinions more strongly than others but nobody has been unfriendly in my opinion (unless a comment has been removed that I have not seen).
I guess that, if someone wants to go on holiday and have their shopping delivered then they can choose a site that will allow this by ringing and checking. The other point is that, if people are members of a club that ban something that they like, they can vote with their feet and leave and tell the said organisation why they have done so or, maybe, they could ask the organisation to do a poll of members (online is easy and cheap) and then, if more people want deliveries than don't then, maybe, they will reconsider.

We can all continue to speculate as much as we like..but they must've tried allowing these deliveries and for what ever reasons(..be it unwanted traffic on site,"congestion" at gate/access road or wardens needing to chase up folk or accept deliveries for them,disruption/irritation to others on site etc..it doesn't really matter which),the fact is they've made a decision to no longer allow them.
(..as for "have they asked their members?",well as with any sites, there are many "rules" in place and I don't recall ever being asked about them either...).
As I've posted previously,most(if not all) of the "commercial" we tend to use, have a "No taxis/No Take-Away deliveries etc on site" rule anyway...So I really can't see what all the faff is about.
Just out of interest 1man 1dog,can I just ask,seeing as you've had a lot of input in this thread,will this "ban" vastly impact on your CC site usage?.. (edited due to some poor spelling )

I do not use a delivery van, whatsoever. I like to mooch around shops. My DS doesn't, It is nice to see what's in the local shops and see what they are selling. I fully understand why people like to do this. On the other hand, From previous posts, my imagination is running away with me, of delivery vans bumper to bumper, mass invasions. No one can move in or out. NO it's just me setting up my tent, then wanting to go to do a bit of shopping, but I can't, because my way is blocked, no its not delivery vans, but motorhomes and caravans. heath63
