Lots of bike thefts at the very popular Caravan Club site in Clumber in Notts, and I know of someone who had their two bikes stolen from the garage area of their motorhome, but they were in Spain.

Theft from any vehicle is as realistic as ever in the UK, not a lot you can do about it when the bikes are in/on the motorhome whilst your not with it. Insurance is the only thing you can do to minimise any losses.
Clumber caravan site is less than 10 minutes as the stolen bike flies from Manton, one of the sttier estates in one of the sttier towns in Notts. Possibly not too representative of CC sites UK wide for theft issues.
Some sites (such as Clumber) now have secure bike sheds due to the issues
