Caravan Sites
Consider opening up sites to allow owners/renters to take advantage of such facilities. Specific pitches already comply with social distancing requirements. On site bars and facilities could remain closed in the short term pending further easing of lockdown measures at a subsequent date.
Why the contribution is important
Adopting this measure will promote mental health and slowly contribute to economic progression.

Bars or restaurants on site should remain closed until all bars etc. are allowed to open.
Travelling to your caravan in your own vehicle will not present any risk of spreading virus.

I agree with you. It's too early to allow this. It would encourage people to travel long distances giving more opportunity to spread the infection. Although people would be following social distancing whilst in their caravans/holiday homes they would also be utilising local facilities and services.
In Scotland the numbers of people in hospitals with Covid19 is still high and has not significantly dropped since its high a few weeks ago.
I know that caravan sites will need to re open to help local communities but some patience is required to make sure that is done in a controlled and safe way. Remember that health for all is more important than the desire of the few.

These can be managed well to encourage social distancing.
I do think with correct and sensible management by the councils responsible for these areas that a gradual re opening is needed.
Perhaps limit the numbers accessing through bookings.
I'm sure the businesses in these small places will suffer or close if this doesn't happen soon.

Hard hit park owners and operators, and often wider rural economies, depend on seasonal income from holiday home owners. Over extending closures may have long-lasting and significant impact for companies and communities.
No need to open bars, restaurants and shared spaces yet.
As elsewhere, responsible behaviour and especially social distancing will be key.

Units are always at a distance apart for fire regulations and rules would apply if out and about.
This would allow some level of recovery for the businesses and jobs in this industry.
Most real owners are responsible enough to make this work.

In the interests of disease transmission control it may be necessary to only permit caravan/campervans onsite which have their own onboard toilet facilities to keep communal facilities closed.
