I was looking at this just a couple of days ago, so thanks for bringing it
up, Bob.

https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:tourism%3Dcamp_site "is used to map
a *campsite* (UK) or *campground* (North American): an area, usually
divided into a number of pitches
<https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:tourism%3Dcamp_pitch>, where
people can camp overnight using tents, camper vans or caravans (aka RVs or
motorhomes)"

https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:tourism%3Dcaravan_site "is a place
where people with caravans / motorhomes / recreational vehicles can stay
overnight, or longer, in allotted spaces known as "pitches" or "sites" ...
They may also have some space for tents. If a site is primarily for tents,
it should be tagged as tourism
<https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:tourism>=camp_site
<https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:tourism%3Dcamp_site>."

To me, that suggests that camp-site should be taken to be tents only, & if
you've got wheels of any sort between you & the ground, so car / camper
trailer / caravan / motorhome etc, it should be a caravan-site?

Thanks
Graeme
