The
FAQ's
What is a DA?
A DA or District Association is made up of members who operate on a voluntary basis to form a group; this group organises temporary camping events for up to 5 days (Weekend Meet) or up to 28 days (Temporary Holiday Sites) usually with entertainment and activities planned. These events can be held anywhere in the UK, and members are welcome to attend any Meet, whether it’s organised by your own DA or a different DA elsewhere in the country.
Upon joining the Club you are automatically assigned to your local DA based on your home postcode, however, you can change this to whichever DA you wish to be registered with. Simply contact the Secretary of the District Association you would like to move to, and they will send you an Opting Form to complete.
What is social camping?
Social Camping is a term the Camping & Caravanning Club uses to describe the Weekend Meets and Temporary Holiday Sites organised and managed by our District Associations, Regions or Special Interest Sections. We chose this term because it explains what this style of camping is all about – camping events run by passionate members, for members who share the same interests.
Social Camping offers some of the most inexpensive camping available, and you’ll always be guaranteed a warm, friendly welcome.
My membership card says I am a member of another DA can I camp with you?
Yes, you can camp with any DA, your membership card tells you which is your local DA and gives you voting rights at their AGM.

Are tents allowed?
Yes, you can camp with any unit type as long as they are designed for overnight accommodation. Be aware if you are in a tent you will need your own toilet facilities at the majority of our Pop up sites. If there are toilets available it will be stated in the site description.
Are dogs allowed?
Yes, as long as they are kept on a lead and under control at all times on site. You must also clean up any mess.
Are there toilet / shower facilities on site?
Rarely, most of our Weekend Meets and Temporary Holiday Sites are held in farmers' fields so you will need your own self contained toilet and washing facilities. If there are facilities they will be described in the meet description.
