I still think the the problem is the word, "non-designated". Its a
contradiction IMHO. Just about everywhere is non-designated, what makes
these particular spots special ? The answer is that they are somehow
"sponsored" by some hotel or what ever. So would a better approach be
camp_site=sponsored ?
You are camping there because the Hotel either encourages, or at least
does not discourage camping. I guess they get some benefit and they may
provide some services and do provide some security. The defining
characteristic of this camp site is its associated with the Hotel.
Would that cover the Kite Club you mention ? Is the Kite Club a
sponsoring body ? Or just a name for a location ?
If its just a location, then camp_site=basic sounds like it fits.
(camp_site=* ) -
sponsored = A place to camp near a (commercial?) operation that may
provide some limited facilities and security.
basic = nothing other than an area to pitch a tent or park a vehicle.
standard = Basic + toilets and water
serviced = Standard + shower + power
fully_serviced = Serviced + camp kitchen + Laundry
deluxe = Fully_Serviced + swimming pool/restaurant
