We regret to announce that Ilminster UK Club Campsite will not operate this year and is leaving the Club network. We know this news will be disappointing as Ilminster has been the setting for many treasured holiday memories. Having reviewed the needs of the wider membership, our priority is to focus resources on sites in other parts of the country that better reflect the needs and travel patterns
of our membership. This decision sits alongside continued investment in strengthening and expanding our UK Club Campsite network. Recent additions, including Dornafield, Carnon Downs, Bridport, Cayton and most recently Lickpenny Matlock, provide members with choice in highly popular locations. Existing Club Campsites are also being improved with Bridport Bingham Grange reopening in July after a major redevelopment and Hillhead in Brixham benefiting from upgraded and increased range of pitches, pool, entertainment and restaurant facilities. While Ilminster leaving the network will be disappointing for some, the Club network now offers more pitches than ever. We thank everyone who has stayed at and supported Ilminster over the years and we hope members will continue to enjoy exploring our wider network, creating new holiday memories to cherish alongside those made at Ilminster.
