Holiday Terms

Please read these terms and conditions carefully. When you book your holiday with us, you are entering into a contract which binds you and the park in various ways. Your payment is taken to be your acceptance of our terms and conditions. Together with your Booking Form and Invoice, they comprise the complete contract and no agent or employee of ours or the parks has any authority, express or implied to alter the terms and conditions of this contract unless authorised to do so in writing. All bookings are made with the respective park (the ‘park’) and are accepted on the strict understanding that the person signing the Booking Form (the ‘hirer’) does so on behalf of all the persons named on it, each of whom has read the following conditions of booking and agrees to be bound by them.

HOLIDAY PRICES

6. All prices include VAT at 20% and are subject to change if the rate or application of VAT changes and in the event of a change in the VAT during the course of the year, you will be invoiced at the new amount of VAT unless you have already taken your holiday or paid the balance in full prior to the date of change.

7. Where the holiday falls between two price panels, the panel with the majority of nights of the holiday will be used to calculate the holiday costs. Where an equal number of nights are taken in two different price periods, the average of the two weekly prices applies.

8. A deposit is payable within 7 days of initial booking. The full balance is then due 6 weeks prior to your holiday. For bookings made within 28 days of arrival, full payment is required on booking. Please note that all deposits are non- refundable.

We strongly advise against sending cash through the mail.
