To create a safe and welcoming atmosphere you may be asked to provide valid ID on check in.

A deposit is required to book a static or a seasonal pitch. Upon payment of the deposit, there is a 14 day ‘cooling off’ period from the date that the payment is received, after which the pitch deposit is non-refundable.
The act of paying the deposit means the remaining balance of the static or seasonal pitch fees will be due by 1st March. If full payment has not been made in full by this date, then we will assume your pitch booking is cancelled and any monies paid will not be refunded.

Complaints
We make every effort to make your stay as enjoyable and comfortable as possible. However, if you feel you have a reason to complain about your holiday, please inform us during your stay so we can take the appropriate action. We cannot help you if we do not know about your complaint. If you do not report your complaint until after your departure, you accept that it will make it harder to investigate or rectify your complaint after your stay has ended.
