For unlicensed, yes if there is something about the airfield unusual or it is truly private. But for licensed then the likes of Blackpool, Elstree, Leicester, Sywell, Cranfield, Old Buck, all the Scottish ones - truly and utterly pointless and just another admin burden that is unnecessary. The ATC/FISO should warn on radio if anything to watch out for, and in any case it would be notam'd.

A call on RTF inbound is all that is needed if you've visited before; If you haven't visited before then it's advisable to phone in advance due to the Class D airspace in which it is embedded.
