We will be under no liability whatsoever (whether in contract, tort or otherwise) in the event of you having a complaint relating the quality of the accommodation or other services provided by a Park, or in the event of suffering personal injury, illness or death as a result of any act or omission of a Park, or their employees or agents, you will seek redress only against the Park who provided such service to you.

    PRICES, BOOKINGS, PAYMENTS & FEES

    All prices quoted include VAT if appropriate at rates prevailing at the time. Parks commit to matching their best rates in the prices quoted on our Website, but if you do notice any lower prices elsewhere please contact us using the details on our Contact Us page prior to your Booking and we will endeavour to price match for you. Errors and omissions excepted.

    By making a Booking you become responsible for making all Payments due under the Booking. A contract between you and the Park will exist when we receive the Deposit and send you a confirmation email ("Confirmation") on the Park's behalf. If you have not received a Confirmation within 24 hours of making the Booking please notify us as soon as possible using the details on our Contact Us page. Please check your Confirmation carefully and report any incorrect or incomplete information to us immediately.

    You must be authorised to make the Booking by all persons named on the Booking (and by their parent or guardian for all party members who are under 18) at the point at which the Booking is made. By making the Booking, you are confirming that you are at least 18 years old and that all party members named on the Booking accept the Terms and you will inform the other party members of the confirmation details and any other appropriate information.

    Payments will be collected according to the terms set by Parks and comprise a deposit amount ("Deposit") due at the point of agreeing Bookings and an optional second payment of the outstanding balance ("Balance Payment") as appropriate. Parks may require full payment at the time of Booking. If a Balance Payment is due, you authorise us to initiate collection of it as indicated to you during the Booking process and in the Confirmation email.

    Except for our limited role in initiating Payments for Bookings, collection and processing of the Payments and forwarding the amounts due to the Park is managed by the Payment Provider. You acknowledge and agree that we have no involvement in the payment process and that any issues or concerns should be addressed directly to the Park.

    If the Park's terms for your Booking dictate that a Balance Payment should be collected automatically when it becomes due, we will instruct the Payment Provider to process that charge using the same card as used to make the Deposit. It is your responsibility to advise us if we should use a different card and to contact us using the details on our Contact Us page to arrange an alternative payment method. If the Balance Payment is rejected for any reason, the Park will contact you to attempt to make alternative Payment arrangements. The Park may cancel your Booking if they have not received your Balance Payment by the due date.

    Deposit payments are subject to a £5 minimum and are non-refundable. We are not liable for any refunds in the event of changes to your booking (made by you or the Park), overbooking by the Park, Force Majeure (defined below) or any other cause beyond our control.

    If you request extra facilities or services ("Request") in the process of your Booking they will be subject to the Park's availability. The Company will have no liability to you in the event that the Park is unable to meet any such Request.

    Please ensure that you check the dates, price, Park's location and other details provided on the Website before proceeding with your Booking.

    A commission for our service is charged to the Park and we do not charge you any booking fees or add any fees to the prices quoted.

Such circumstances shall include (but not be limited to) war, terrorism, riots or civil unrest, industrial action, flooding, natural disaster, epidemics, health risks or such similar events ("Force Majeure"). We recommend that you have adequate holiday insurance in place to cover this.
