Booking

Due to high demand, reservations must be confirmed with a completed booking form within 7 days of making a reservation. You will be invoiced for the deposit, which must be paid within 14 days, upon receipt of your completed booking form. If you fail to confirm your booking on time the dates may be made available to others without further notice. All groups must give a best estimate of numbers on their booking form so that we can arrange appropriate staffing levels.

Payment

Payment of the final balance due must be made at least one calendar month before the date of your visit. We reserve the right to cancel your visit if the final balance is not received when due, in which case your deposit will be forfeit. Written notice of any variation in numbers must be given before your final payment becomes due, failing which the full balance invoiced will be payable. If you bring additional guests a supplemental invoice will be issued after your visit for payment within 14 days.

Minimum Charges

To make it financially viable for smaller groups to visit the Centre we have a minimum charge for 15 people per night per group.

Meals

Your package includes 6 meals, you need to provide a packed lunch for your first meal.

Arrival and Departure Times

• Arrivals: Mondays/Wednesdays from 9.15am
• Departures: Please vacate your rooms by 9.30am.
This allows us to check over the site, and ensure it is ready for the next group. Please consult us about special arrangements if required – it may be possible to negotiate different times. A member of staff will brief the group on arrival and debrief you on departure.

Cancellation by Client

All cancellations must be made in writing. The deposit is non-refundable. If less than 3 months’ notice of cancellation is given, then the full fee will be charged.

Cancellation by the Centre

Whilst every effort will be made to ensure your visit takes place, we reserve the right to cancel at any time. In this event, as much notice as possible will be given and you will be offered, either a full refund of fees or a mutually agreed alternative booking date. In the unfortunate event that we are unable to provide a booked activity session you will be offered an alternative or a refund of the fee relating to the session. We regret that our liability does not extend beyond this.

You must report, and will be required to pay for, any equipment lost, broken, stolen or damaged. Substitutes cannot be accepted.
