We want you to enjoy your stay with us, that’s the most important thing.
So, we’ve tried to keep our terms and conditions short and sweet.
General
Our park has been designed with families and couples in mind so we’re sorry but we don’t accept group bookings from hen and stag parties or large group booking for celebration events. We hope you understand this decision.
We ask that you respect our quiet time after 10pm and show respect to your holiday neighbours and our staff at all times. Patrols will be made to remind guests to adhere to this policy and will be asked to leave if they fail to comply.
For guests in our accommodation, we will require a payment card on check-in upon which we will apply a £95 pre-authorisation transaction to cover any breakages/damage to your accommodation. This will be removed upon departure providing no damage is found.
If the behaviour of a guest or any other member of their party has or is likely to spoil the enjoyment, comfort or health of any other residents, guests or staff, the guests will be asked to vacate the property immediately and will receive no refund.
We reserve the right to ask any guest, and their party, to leave the Holiday Park if they do not abide by our terms and conditions with no refund given. Guests may also be responsible for any costs incurred as a result of their behaviour whilst staying with us.
We aim to resolve any issues or complaints about your stay whilst you’re with us. Any complaint not brought to our attention, or resolved, during your stay, cannot be dealt with once you have left the site.
Children under the age of 14 must be supervised at all times.
